Show Partners Cards

Post by Fireside Poet »

I'm sure I am not the only one who has asked this, but I wanted to toss the idea out to see ... how about in a team game where you can see each others cards? I'm already saying "2g 1r" or something to that effect anyway. Take it for what it's worth...

I'm not sure that its worth implementing. In team games you can talk to you're partner and he can tell you what cards he holds. Every time I play a team game with cards and I need to know his cards I just ask.

But by then it is a new round and both aren't always on at the same time.

Yeah maybe. But although it would be nice with everyone keep asking for new features to be in the games, wont the screen get to "bunged up". I mean im quite a fast player at taking my goes and i like to just see as simple screen as possible to limit the amout of mistakes...

I agree with ronaldinho here...things could get cluttered...and perhaps this is unecessary. Now that we have Team Chat in the game...you can always leave a quick message to your team mate, if you do not chat regularly about strategy, stating that you have a red card and blue card, or similar things.

There should be communication in team games...and I think communicating what cards you have can currently be done via Team Chat.

i think there should be options..or prefrences,, that each person can set up for there own account,like poker.


like wich colors we see ourselves

seeing partners cards,,,

our map ,, so they dont have to scroll down all the time

in wich order there games are shown,,,,,


or game ### is diferent color when its your turn...

or auto login.......

or auto refresh.......... so u can see other players take there turn in real time...

or a better way to check your stats for games won lost ect...

or a way to keep akiceman outa your posts

or insted of only a 24 hour a turn...have options,,,24 hour 48 hour 1 hour 5 minutes

if these items were optional it would only cluter up our screens if we wanted them to.

point refund for points lost to multis....

auto block all busted multi option


when setting up a game have it reset to prefrance....or have how many of those games u wanna set up ,, so u dont have to go through the procedure 12 times in a row if u wanted to set up 12 games

when blocking someone have option of still seeing there chat.

have a buton we could push that would cause wives and girls friends go from "being jelous of CC" to instant BJs well playing CC

what do u guys think?

Great ideas if they can be put into practice. =D> I don't know if auto-refresh would be possible though or surely we would already have it. Although I have been on other gaming sites where refreshing isn't necessary (not RISK games though) :-k

we might have to raise some capital for our fearless progammer, but i definitely forsee all of these options becoming available...I honestly imagined tons of options after my first week in here

it really is the best game, poker is a joke compared to this, that i only got addicted to for a couple of weeks at a time, here im on over two months of absolute compulsive obsession

i am so off topic

as far as seeing the cards, i almost think it might be better not to see them.
any good team will communicate this as necessary, and if you throw some cheaters into the mix, they may divulge the info to the other team

i know thats not going to happen in your games, but it will definitely happen somewhere in here

More like: a way to keep reverend_kyle out of your posts.

And I am for things to be less cluttered. (I don't know if it is necesary to see your partners cards, but it might help.)

Ability to view Teamates Cards

Post by Buddy Jesus »

Title sums it up nicely.

Basically what im suggesting that we can view our teamates cards in a team game. Their card sets could be below your cards next to their name. I think that it would help strategy, a quick look at how they're doing.

Priority: 1

Sorry if this has been suggested before, beacuse i didnt see it.

I believe it has been, and been rejected because of lack of need and confusing clutter. If you really want to know just ask your partner about it

Ability to see teammates cards/spoils [Pending]

Post by Gilligan »

I think we should be able to see your teammates cards in doubles or triples games. Underneath (or next to) your own cards, it could say, for example, if my partner is lackattack, in a doubles game, it could be:

My cards: Alaska Congo lackattack's cards: Indonesia Brazil Kamchatka

If triples: My cards: Greenland Argentina Venezuela Japan lackattack's cardsKamchatka Ontario Alberta Ural Ukraine wicked's cards: Alberta


Why it is needed:

If a teammate is nearly dead, and has 4 cards, it is your turn, and you are deciding whether he will be safe with a set on his turn. It turns out that he had no set, and then gets eliminated by the other team. I know we could use the chat, but if you have a partner that doesn't even LOOK at the chat, it would be very useful.

Although it would be nice, that's what the chat is for. Too bad if your partner doesn't look. Send a PM to get them to check it.

I know, but it wouldn't be a bad idea. We'll wait for the mods.

I don't like it. Team games are all about communication, if you want to know what cards your partner has, then just ask them.
