can someone write up a script that gives a warning about time running out for their teammates in games???
That would be useful since these rules are being implemented.
My clans concern for turns about to be missed usually fall around the 6 hour rule...As some of us are worldwide, and it is utterly impossible for someone to wait til the 1 hour mark for "emergency purposes.
Anyway, I sometimes miss the fact that my clanmates are about to miss a turn because the game is mixed up in all my games on my active tab. If there was a blinking red clock on the active tab showing the clock was running out in a game for a player, that would be helpful. Heck, I don't even know if it has to be an add-on.
There is an entire forum titled
Tools and Enhancements. Maybe check there before asking for someone else to do all the work for you?
It should be easier to follow this rule if your clan is more spread out. If all of you are in one timezone, then you are all more likely to be missing turns around the same point with nobody to cover. If you are in multiple timezones, the likelihood of a clanmate being online during missed turn periods is higher.
Don't be a douchebag!!!
I was merely asking because it pertains to this specific subject, and since these rules have already been implemented, and I am just finding out about it, doesn't mean you have to be rude...Thanks for being a troll, as the comment right above yours was at least courtesy with minor sarcasm, I got that point, you on the hand, just mind your business!
AND to your 2nd point, you are assuming an entire clan has access to all passwords of all clanmates???
Not the case, I don't want 20+ players having my password...What sense of security is there for that???
Then stop being lazy. You admitted that you didn't want to spend the time to actually find the information, you just wanted someone to provide it for you, which I did anyways. A quick search of the forums would have cost you less than a minute.
I, for one, trust the clan I'm in with my password. If they weren't people I could trust not to abuse it, I wouldn't be a part of the clan. But if you really are worried about security, you can still pick sitters that cover multiple timezones to better conform to the 1-hour rule.
1st: I didn't say I didn't want to sift through the tools and enhancements? I said I didn't want to sift through this thread to see if someone had SUGGESTED what I suggested.
2nd: I currently have "Watch Games", and it still doesn't have the specs of what I suggested. So, if that is what you keep avoiding to say, because you are obviously baiting me into an argument here, then you have succeeded in your plan. There are no other add-ons that I can find using the search engine and words like, "Clock" or "timer" that go beyond "Watch Games".
3rd: It doesn't matter who you trust in a clan, as I am a semi-new member of FOED, so how do I know who to trust??? Do I openly give my password in our forum, even though there are a few members that I have never even spoke too, played with, etc. because of extended hiatus from the site? So, yes giving my password out to my sitters are with people I have been playing with outside of my clan for years. Yet, as I understand the rules, only clan members can take turns in clan games. I do have trustworthy people I can rely on, however the rule doesn't seem to allow error. My understanding of the rule, which you seem to overlook, is the 1 hour rule is for emergencies when no one has stated they are on vacation. My point was merely that sometimes I don't log in but every 24 hours because I work two jobs. So, I may miss someone's clock running down in my "Watch Games" tab. Hence the suggestion that PM, or auto generated email stating "Team 2" has 59 min. left before missed turn. I mean, I can get an auto generated email stating you responded to this thread, so why couldn't I get an auto-generated email in clan games when time is running out for me or my clanmates???
And, chap had already stated the same thing you stated in the post right before yours, so why would you have to re-state what has already been stated. As I said before, at least he was helpful about it, and not rude. Him and I have discussed the matter further, and the conversation was helpful to try and find a solution to these new rules. How come you just want to attack people in this forum that are trying to help the community? In my eyes, that only hinders the entire system and reason for a forum. Obviously you are the grand poobah and just have to put your 2 cents into a conversation that doesn't need money to function!
