IIRC, the actual proportion of users that use BOB is much lower than you'd think. I forget where/when/why/how I saw this info, but I was surprised about it when I did. Something far, far below 50%. Forum goers often confuse other forum goers as being representative of the CC population. I wouldn't be surprised if close to 50% of the regular forum commentators use it though.

Also, rjhankey thank you for "stumbling" on that fix. I had been wondering why I wasn't affected. (P.S. team players should have that function selected, for sure)

That's unfortunate. Then why not change the name of the medals to diamond for consistency?


Yeah, it is unfortunate.

I can't answer that question. :)

Not impossible. :)

Also, only medals given before the update shows the wrong name, Not all of them


Fixed.

What a shame, I liked "Diamond" better. :D

I think blake being aboard will help a ton. Beforehand, we didn't have programmers that were familiar with CC at all. Blake coming onto the team helps make an empathetic presence among us for understanding/implementing/fixing appropriate updates. He's doing stellar!

I personally prefer Platinum for the new level. It leaves it open for another level to be added later on called Diamond.

Update:

Hello, everyone! Please welcome the long waited for addition of the CC Time Clock! It will be on the top right corner of every page so that you will always know what time it is for events that we hold, and it will probably help some of you coordinate your turns! Thanks to our awesome development team for getting this out, and to Doctor Spin for suggesting this back in 2010! Best,

BMO

When you have a smaller browser, or use CC from a phone it overlaps with all the tabs at top and looks terrible...
but on regular browser window it looks fine.

I already hacked it.

Just use super slow internet, and before it loads, press the browser "STOP" button (which if you use Netscape Navigator, like I do, you get a cool icon that looks like a STOP sign but not in Helvetica for some strange reason). Anyways, if you time it right, it just says CC Time:

Which can only mean one thing.

The Time is Now: Isn't.

I don't think it's unfortunate at all. Just as misprinted postage stamps acquire value because something rare and unusual has occurred, so will your medals. Once they are fixed and only correct ones are being issued, people with the early mislabelled medals will take on special status. One day you will find yourself bragging to some newbie, "I was here when the Platinum medals were misnamed Diamond, not like you Johnny-Come-Lately!"

Hmmm... I just read further and found out that they've all been fixed. Oh well, so much for your special status. You'll still be able to make that brag, you just won't be able to prove it now...:)

Okay, I'll be honest. This post contributes nothing, but it gets this thread in "View My Posts", which is about all I have time to review most days, and I do want to follow this.

No point following this. It's actually never been used as intended.
