Or: everything is the same color... and we're all winners! That would make me feel good.
Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
Change it back to the original please.
Forgot that option....
It doesn't need anything done to it.

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
The problem is green/gray and orange/yellow- is there a reason those colors aren't included in the sample?

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
i like it with either 30% white or 30% black.
Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
Hey, I just voted and it keeps coming up "submit vote." Are you sure these results aren't being skewed 
Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
That's a good point: why is there not the option to keep the map the way it was?
Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
The difference is minor so to me it's not that important. What ever ...

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
thanks very much guys!
30% black looks good to me; it does not distract the eye and makes the armies a little more clear .

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
I think Black at 40% is the way to go here. I dont like the white dots it ruins the map somewhat.

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
I like no shadows, it seems a bit better for the color scheme.

The new shadows are terrible. Love this game but hate that change.

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
I voted for white 30% because it looks the best, in my opinion. However, in the interest of fairness, there should be a runoff of the top two choices when this poll closes. Otherwise, we could have white 30% (which is winning as of this post) win, when in fact a black one would win if its votes weren't split among all the blacks. Yes, i know, the whites are split as well, but who knows?

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
although white 60 didn't bother me like it did others ... i could go with white 30...its still readable and more clear than any of the black options to my eyes 
Highest rank:

AWESOME!! I achieved point count above!!

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
The results thus far are disappointing for me. I can live with 30% white, but won't like it. I would love 60% black, but apparently I'm in the minority.
Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
I voted white 30, but all of them are allright.
Cant we just roll the dices to decide??

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
Let's change it back to normal.
Colour codes are for people who can't see well, besides, why are people who can't see colour, playing a game of colour?? And complaining about it??
There's probably about 10 people who actually want the map changed. Why is there no Change it back vote? Because it would win?
*Sigh*
This place is starting to suck.

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
Is there a way to show a white army on a white circle? Also, a slate army on a black circle? Those might be the best indicators since people have been complaining about not seeing an army on a territory due to the circles.
Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
The problem is the Deep Tonings of the Sea Colour.Tone it down a bit and it will make the rest of the map more easy on the eyes

why not not use any shadows, and just replace blue with another color?

Re: Classic map touchup, take three!
looks like white 30% is winning although i find it is pretty bright for army cirlces. white 40% is about right for me.

Time to retire this much loved sig of mine with a new clan.
Re: Classic map touchup, take three!

Apparently it's a lot more than 10, because the old Classic was black 60%
