This change is great.

I've been using BOB for quite a while and find I miss it, when I'm forced to play from a different computer.

Also this is one up on BOB, it gives a full region count in the fog as well. With BOB, you still needed to count regions in a foggy game.

Yes, exactly! I sacrificed a lot of speed for that mod...if you have as many 100+ round games as I, then BOB slows your play time by about three million, billion, squillion percent.

Again, Lack you are a genius!

Ignore the farmers with their 'but now I won't have an unfair advantage over new players...' crap.

Trust a chap who makes his points the fair way...

I have 4.9.7

So I don't understand why mine only counts those visable (and always has) :?: :?

Those people who are looking for a hide/disable button should ask sherkat to make it a feature of BOB. If a script can add things to the page, surely it can take things away.

My only problem is that in a fog game, players should not know how many territories others have..... That's one of the points of fog......

Great update! =D> My only problem is where the spoils are now. Could you change it back to the left side of the names?

I don't usually offer negative comments but I really do not care for this feature at all. If you can't count on your own, I don't want to play with you. Period.

New players will still make the same stupid mistakes regardless of the territory counter.

As it's been said time and time again, the game log has always shown this and B.O.B. already displays it for you.

The only people complaining about this either a)don't know about B.O.B. or b)have B.O.B. and are upset they don't have an advantage anymore. Nothing about this is new for those who knew how to find it, so please stop whining.

I hate this upgrade. Make the players do this themselves!! Why are you making it easier! That is part of the game. Get rid of this, or make it optional.

Not really liking it. I already have BOB so it's kinda pointless, plus it seems to be slowing down my browser. Maybe you could make it an optional change, so those of us with BOB who don't need this change can keep it the same.

I know I'm just echoing everything else that people have said, but larger maps push the stats bar off my screen to the right. This isn't a huge issue, just that the spoils are on the far right of the stats bar, so I am required to scroll in every game to see how many spoils a player has. The only change I recommend for this is to move the spoils column to the left by the players names like it was before. Otherwise, great update Lack!

Like drunkmonkey stated it was allways there all you had to do is read the log but your still going to have to read the log to see what players bonus are and then pin point them on a map


there no point hidding regions cause you could go back to the start of the log and count every time the player attack some one and has been attacked to find out how many they have left

Works fine for me but nope, don't like it, the statistics are things players should have to work out for themselves, now the person with the most armies is even more of a target than before.

Can this be made optional ie. a tick box when creating a new game?

I already shut off Bob statistics and use this update -- like it, especially that the number are black -- never could read the damn yellow numbers. Now if you can just get clickable maps to work when the game chat is at the top it would be great.

As for fog - always had fog analyzer, so no change.

I wish conquerclub weren't 1280 pixels wide. Honestly. w3schools says that close to half of all web traffic is only 1024 px wide -- and many of us who are don't browse full screen.

I get the value of the data, I've used a bookmarklet that does this for years. However, I only need the data once in a while, not all the time, and side scrolling sucks.

this is the worst update i have ever seen.
part of being a good player is taking the time to analyze your opponents territories adn stats for yourself and putting them in a chart for the unskilled or lazy player takes away a lot of strategy.
this is a horrible addition.
3 thumbs down

The previous update with number of cards was great. I play from my iPhone and can't scroll the log. But this new update isn't good. Number of territories is nice, but number of armies is too much. Whoever takes the time to count gets a small advantage and whoever doesn't count, well that's their choice and their problem. Please get rid of total armies!!!
