Re: #GCCM. [Week 3] [Competition Post 2]
1. Berlin 1961 map image has been replaced with copy of Das Schloss map image.
2. CCU and Celtic Nations map images have switched places, but their labels have not moved.
3. "Charleston" is backwards.
4. "Clandemonium" changed to "Blandemonium."
5. "Classic Cities:" missing from labels of London, Pot Mosbi, and Sydney.
6. There is no "On" or "Off" next to "Auto BOB:" in the BOB menu.
7. Map Rank Version number is missing.
8. First option in Map Rank menu under Map drop-down should say "Map Rank," not just "Map."
9. Facebook "Like" button should be above "Share" bar.
10. "Gift Certificates" option and gift card image with ribbon is missing.
I think I got them all this time.

I liked that one.
#Just For Fun
Last one for tonight (where I am that is)
You know the drill, a well known screen, mistakes added, can you spot all of them?

No, I'm just going to bask in the glory of my golden Mario statuette and give someone else a chance.
Thanks for doing these, though, koontz - they've been a blast.

Well shoot if sempi doesn't want to find them, then all the map thumbnails are flipped horizontally and backwards.

I'm still undecided here. =)
Classic, it just has a higher number of neutrals coded in and uses starting positions. But the rest of the board is a random drop.
Conquest will always only allow you to drop on certain regions only. Feudal war, you cannot drop on a village, AYBBTU, you can only drop on a home region.iamkoolerthanu wrote:Treasures of Galapagoes? I always thought that was a 'conquest' map
It is.
Conquer Rome is still a conquest map to me. When Starting Positions bear such a huge impact then a lot of it is about Conquest in order to take the Opponents tribe etc.
Same with the likes of Pot Mosbi.
Neutrals doesn't to have as much bearing to me in defining a conquest map.
I do admit that CR perhaps does hover between the 2 worlds, but thats kinda why I was thinking a third option for complex might have been a more agile distinction

When I set up the polls, like last weeks with the sizes, I wanted to leave a large gap so the map has some life. You are right that CR and PM hover between the two, but I will attest to the fact that a random deploy is just that. With conquest, you know where you will start every single game as it is fixed to the 6/8 starting spots. With those two, no matter what the starts you are given, you may get deployed the other side. But this is an interesting thought. Might be worth discussing further in a new thread.

-The map images are reversed, I cant figure out how to get them in that order!
-30 Round Limit check is upside-down
-A No Points option is added?!?!
-Game stats should read Tour Stats I think, unless you have a different add-on then me! Game stats and Tour stats buttons are switched thats what it is
-All Speed Game link is missing
-Assassin is spelt 'Assasin'
-Hive chat instead of Live chat
Also koontz go download chatglove it is amazing for team games

All right, all right, I'll get the rest. *sigh*
There's a 1-player option.
Middle East and Middle Ages are reversed in the "Map" box.
It says "Hit again to deselect" when it should say "Click again to deselect."
The "Yes" option for Trench Warfare is upside down.
"Ben" instead of "BOB," which I find hilarious for some reason.
There shouldn't be a Tour Stats menu in the sidebar.
Pretty sure that's all.

Hokey-cokey-pig-in-a-pokey. Lets play another one then. Last one of these for a bit. New games tomorrow.
#Just For Fun.
You know the drill. I went fishing for a screen grab, played with it and it is up to you to find the mistakes. Only thing is, I will not tell you how many there are.
