Put it into your Firefox bookmarks toolbar as a Live Bookmark, and you can check instantly whether your turn is up in any of your games. Thanks Lack! My risk of becoming obsessive-compulsive from repeatedly checking my conquer-club page just went down...

Should help save bandwidth too, right?

Do you use Sage if so how you put it in toolbar like that

Don't need it for this actually.

Just go to your "My Games" screen and click on the RSS symbol in the URL bar. Add the bookmark to your toolbar bookmarks and you're done.

Okay - ive calmed down. One problem with the feed. Sage is great. Allows us to get the fee within Firefox. But I want it to say 'YOUR TURN' when its my turn!

At the mo it stills says waiting.

Who can sort it? Is it one for Lack?

MY MISTAKE. IT DOES SAY 'READY' BUT ITS NOT UPDATING? I HAD TO CHECK MY GAMES LIST TO SEE THAT THE NEW GAME HAD STARTED.??

it appears we can change the duration at which Firefox automatically refreshes the live bookmarks: http://ilias.ca/blog/2005/08/live-bookm ... -rate.html

i'm still keeping mine at the default, though, i think manual refresh is good enough for me (for now!)
