One of the great things about computers over board games is that large physical spaces can be represented much more easily without having to have a piece of thick cardboard 20metres by 20metres installed in your house. To not use that capability because you're worried your scrolling finger might get tired just seems silly.

I'm a rebel. I even have a bandana and a Che Guevara T-shirt too, to prove it. Now I just need to find my Automat-Kalashinikov and I'll be set! Capitalist Pig-Dogs beware.

Let me put that I am a loyalist, as I have previously stated. However, I do not mind if maps are made that have to be scrolled. I am just supporting the Foundry Mods and Lack in the decisions made, because they run the site. Therefore they do what they believe is best :)

Re: The Discussion on Map Size (Decision on Pg 1 & 11)

Its been over a year since the decision was made not to increase the allowable sizes for maps , so lets revisit this.

I am in favour of increasing the limits, now I'm not saying lets go stupidly large, but at least give us a little something more to work with.

Here is my reasoning behind it.

Resolution vs. % of Internet Users
Higher than 1024×768 = 38%
1024×768 = 48%
800×600 = 8%
Lower than 800×600 = < 1%
Unknown = 6%

So as we can see 80%+ of people use a screen res of 1024x768 or higher, which is pretty much the new standard for 4:3 monitors (this includes wide screen monitors which have are generally in the 1200x800 mark)

The display size of higher than 1024x768 is up 12% for 2008 on last year so going by these trends we can expect around 50% plus people to be using the SXGA (1280 x 1024) by mid/end of next year.

This info is from w3schools

Now CC is a php site, so that means by using some javascript and php commands it shouldn't be too difficult to collect screen resolution data from the CC users to make an informed decision.

Personally I think if we are being limited in our map sizes because of up to 15% of the users (800x600 and lower, and the unkown) then there are some issues.

So yeah, if your not going to up the size, give us the Stats and the reasoning behind it.

Lack should put a poll on the home page - would people prefer larger maps? or what size monitor is your main computer?

I conducted this poll a couple of months back. Based on GD popular opinion I think a re-examination of map size is in order.

I'm trying to put a slightly different spin on it, The poll shows most of us would play a larger map, but what I'm saying is the CC needs to keep moving forward with the advances in the technology that are used to access it. Its not a case of if we want to play maps that are larger than our screen res, its a case that if the average screen res is higher than it was at the time the decision was made, the allowable map size should be increased. And im asking for a little hard data to show why this decision was made.

Hell, i have a cranking screen but i play small maps only because i can't be bothered clicking the large map link.

i had a good idea for larger maps. Like if they were bigger than the screen, then people could click on it to zoom in/out. Sure its more hassle, but it would probably be only 8 player maps that would be bigger (there are definately problems for 8 player conquest maps (like Famine) where people are squished in cause of the map size restrictions)
