you can go to find game click on the map you want see it will bring up all of the games on that map whether they are finished or not can even keep checking in to see what was the winning stratagy

I dunno... how about in the "Start your own game" section each map links to a larger version of itself that pops up in a separate window? I've thought that would be an easier way of doing it.

Eventually something like this is going to have to be created, because eventually not all the maps are going to fit easily on that one page.

Dammit, wacicha, I don't like joining anyones games half as much as I like joining yours. Now if only you wouldn't beat me so often...

Right, a link from the mini image... I agree. And I think that, as the number of maps will grow soon, instead of the radio buttons we should have a droplist to choose the map.

Edit: ... then the mini image of the map you pick loads at the side.

... although a seperate page with all the mini map icons just for display, might be useful still...

i thought it would be a good idea if you could preview the map before u pick 2 play it because on maps i have never played before i may wanna play it but i dont wanna get stuck in it if i dont like it

you can preview it if you use your gamfinder and select the map you want and then enter one of the games

You know when you make a game there are those little thumbnails? Well couldn't those be links to a bigger picture? It's kinda annoying to into the game finder to look at a map.

yeah i find that annoying too. i guess it doesnt apply for me now since i have been on nearly all the maps and i know how they are laid out, but it would be helpful for noobs who dont know what the maps look like.

Viewing maps before playing

I looked, and did not find this anywhere in the forum, but if it is, forgive my bad searching skills.

There are some maps I still have not played, nor seen, and i think there should be an option that one can click on the maps and view them before a game.

Is there a way to do this?

The only way I have seen is to find a game that is in play and then enter it.

Guess what I'm going to say...that's right.

It's been suggested before, and is under 'Rejected: Community & Site',

I should update the suggestions box...

EDIT: But I'll be implementing it without out resorting to popups.
