Here you go dolomite. I am happy with the changes and considering time constraints, we need to get this finished.

Only thing to change is: bottom right, hold cupid and one heart (use a capital C). Cupid is a name.

The graphics here are pretty straight forward, and easily stampable, with the short time remaining before the holiday I can look to fast track the stamp. However, I need all the test images, and of course the large map image, ASAP.

There is only one size for this map, large and small are the same to make it most accessible for people on the holiday.

Thanx for the stamping ;)

UM ... Why? ... the XML is coded with the same coordinates for small and large I don't see why two "different" sizes are needed when the map conforms to the "small" size just fine .... This would not be the only map that only has one size.

It has always been two different sizes for the main site.

The current xml you have is for the test site and do not ask me why this is happening as I have no idea how that works. But you do need to have the two images at least 9% different in size.

I have bubbled this up for an exemption to have this map as a single size. The image file is not optimized to scale up however if necessary I can try to do so and see what I get.

I will take a look at making it 9% larger this evening. I did a quick test last night and it still looks OK at that size.

You are going to have to use a different shade of green or yellow, (or swap one of them out entirely) they are identical colors under vischeck. Other than that, you're good to go. Any other concerns, lets hear them kids.

Cupid is still in a little letter, needs to be a capital.
Conquer Club, no need for it all to be capitals, but a nice flare if you can would be to do it in the same colour as the title.

OK I'll look at that this evening.

While we have some time till I get that done does anyone think Cupid neutral start is too high at 10?

More than likely, you can reduce it to a 3 or 4. But do not fret over it as things can be changed after the holiday.

OK this should be color blind safe now.

- Fixed misspelling of Huggs to Hugs.
- Changed Cupid to 5n from 10n.

New XML

Conquer_Love_403a.xml

- fixes typo in xml for Happiness that was spelled Happyness
- reduces Cupid to 1 neutral down from 5

This should make Cupid very attractive and players may go for the victory condition early rather than never.

I still kinda feel like the bonuses will only really come into play once a game is decided, since the same colors are spread out and not really close
