Requiem will take suggestions that don't involve major reworkings of the code, it seems. If he can tack it on somewhere, like my suggestion to add player's names to the My Games list, he will sometimes do it.

He seems much more interested in discussing the new version, "War of Kings," in chat. His focus is on planning how that game will work. He has mentioned many features of it, including a randomly shaped map, individual troops instead of stacks and the "zone" system of resource management.

Suggestions for that game may prove more fruitful than trying to fix problems we see in this version. I don't say you shouldn't try, but be aware of the unlikeliness of it being implemented in Waronline. Suggestions that can be implemented easily are far more likely to happen.

I suggest that Req give us pie. It'd be easy to implement...just post a big picture of pie somewhere on the site so we can go and look at it anytime we want with a simple click. This would make the game like twice as good.

The funny thing is that even though I'm just playing, I actually would consider this an improvement.

OMG PIE

I like to discuss problems with the game and possible solutions here. I'm not comfortable in IRC.
Some suggestions will still be applicable to the new version like for example I think a solution is necessary for multies and inactives and I'm sorry to lump the innocent together with the guilty, but I do think that a tactic that may be used by multies is to uncork a couple of inactives in a game with hopes of being next to one.

I agree, TR, and you should be worried about those issues. However, don't you agree that for this version, Req isn't likely to institute major game play changes? He did a certain amount of it last year but seems content to leave it as is now, barring minor bug fixes. I could be wrong though...

Suggestions for the new version are great and really needed, especially multis getting thrown out and some way to regulate gangbanging.

PS:
Just kidding Mog ...
but yes, we should all be concerned about these issues mentioned.
I just enjoy making suggestions though and every once in a while Req does comment on them.

Yes, unfortunately, I cant seem myself adding/changing anything huge in this version.

Maybe when I get some free time I will try to fix a few things here, but nothing too major (code-wise).

But feel free to keep the suggestions coming. Who knows, you could find them in the new version, or even sprout other ideas that could improve the game.
