But it would be great if a checkbox beside your teammates names would enable them to play for you in only that game, not giving them full access to the account.

Ohh yes very nice - although will it deadbeat you after 3 turns? Or would you allow people to return on it.

Would this add your 3 armies to a random country held by you?

Posted: Fri Dec 22, 2006 3:34 pmThe potential for abuse exists, but I think this is doable. Checkmarks next to trusted teammates may be allowed, or even....oh, this is brilliant....
....You could have a list of "trusted allies" on your profile. If you are not around for a player-set ammount of time to take a turn, these trusted allies are alerted, and one of them may jump in to take your turn for you. Some of these "trusted allies" could be computer controls: "Kamikaze" would always attack, "Turtle" would always cautiously reinforce, "General Malaise" would play "normally", et cetera....
