OK, my idea would be to create a real time gamespace, so in real time games you don't need to continually reload the page. It would continually recieve information from the servers like every 30 seconds and automatickly reload the page (or just the map and a couple other parts) if someone took their turn or attcked or something. Kind of like making a java chatroom instead of forums like this (same basic idea). Maybe it could be done by something other than grease monkey. Maybe you could make an external visual basic program and reformat the whole page so it would refresh quicker. And of course it would sstill upload from the cc servers.

hmmm, justr thought of a minor technicallity. What if a bunch of people using a script like this causes the servers to overload! After all, they weren't designed for continual reloading!

I would think that that would be a great idea.......but that would take a lot of time and it would probably have to be watched constantly to make sure it doesnt crash.....thats a lot of games that would have continual reloading.......i dont know if anyone would want to do that all the time.

yeah, not all the time! it would only be for rt games. Hmmm... maybe if you did it in java or flash instead of greasemonkey.

For this you would need to create another server that would handle this and a client application. They would receive only the changes, just like a real time game. If you would create an application over the existing web server you would be receiving the whole page every time.

Oh, and this server could not be created by anyone except site staff?

Well it would de harder since the person needs to know how the data in stored and everything, plus that person needs lack's approval. I don't think lack would be willing to give the first person that wants to do this all that info.

hmmm... so maybe i should take this to the site suggestions page.
