"Exactly. If it's put back the way it was, we may lose CC. Evolution is the way forward "


OK let's evolve the new solution then. The diamonds need to be bigger because it is very difficult to read from a GUI point of view. I have been missing seeing accurately opponents armies in numerous games from time to time since this was implemented. Better contrast on colors and readability for the new map is an essential step forward. Ultimately, the relationships between locations may need to change for legal reasons, but so be it. Same for some rules.

Yes it did lose some pages - 5 whole pages to be precise - and yes "mods busy at work" (well a mod - me ) . I was unmerging the So, at this moment in time would you renew your membership? thread which had accidentally been merged into this one. No conspiracy. Panic over

I assume it wasn't much. Probably just some of the angrier bitching, which quite frankly, can be done without.

And an innocent thread's life was saved too.

On a scale from 1-6 what do you think the Intensity was?

It wasn't 6, I can't wrap my head around Heroic Intensity Bitching. Too oxymoronic.

Also, thats my band's new name.

Hey everybody.

There's been a lot of activity on the changes we made yesterday. A lot of upset people (myself included) and a lot of questions. Let me do my best to address those concerns from what I know:

1) The maps are fugly. Yes, we know they are. I personally agree with you all on that point, but we had to change them to avoid potential copyright issues. Andydufresne, and Oaktown along with at least one or two users have already begun work on a revamp contest to find someone to come up with something better. We're hoping it goes up soon so we can get back to something more playable.

2) <so and so> must DIE! - no, they must not. Please do not attempt to arrange any sort of lynch mobs, class action law suits, consumer boycots or intestinal stranglings. These will accomplish nothing other than to piss off more people which wont solve anything for anyone, and trying to strangle someone may just make things worse - we don't want murder on our hands Please let us handle any issues that are related to this.

3) Communication SUCKS, I'm leaving, you blow, how dare you, I want a refund - these are all fair criticisms and we are truly sorry that this panned out the way it did but again, it was something we did to avoid potential issues. All I ask is that if you have a specific complaint or suggestion please try to contact me. My inbox it flooding right now, but I will try to get to all of your concerns and address them as best as I can as soon as I can.

4) To those of you who have sent us best wishes, thank you. I wish I could thank you all personally because they mean a lot to us. I can only hope that these changes aren't too onerous and that we can continue to offer you a great game and an enjoyable site.

I know that this doesn't fix everything, but we are going to be taking steps to make things less ugly and messy. This thread is moving fairly quickly so please quote this message once every couple of pages so that future readers can keep up to date. I'm trying to read all the posts and am PMing several people to address their concerns at a pace it can be followed, but there are a lot to get through


Hang in there folks, pretty maps are hopefully coming

One thing about multiple thread being deleted (if they even are), is that they deserved to be deleted IMO, as the thread started either can't be asked to post in the original thread or can't be asked to look for an original thread.

As for the changes to CC i have no problem, as long as all the changes have been made because of copyright issues. Also while i think a petition can do a lot of things it can't do much about copyright issues.

Yeah and I can't be bothered, and I doubt people really care that much. The world hasn't ended it just looks a bit different.

I still reckon this could be tweaked a tad!

...probably not the best verbiage at this point but what I crafted was a reference. Perhaps over in S & B, someone can create a thread to generate ideas about terminology. Here's a great reference site.

From page 61, which may or may not have always been page 61. Also, reference is not entirely true, its the internet and I was required to add some snark.

I started reading all the messages on this topic and just got sick of all the whining and moaning.

Suck it up!!

Frankly I was surprised that it took this long before they changed classic. CC is the biggest and best "Strategy Map Game" on the internet: I've played many other sites, and this really is the best, the biggest and the nicest site to play on.

We have 100+ map and you're whining because you can't play on one of them? Pick another one! Pick five other maps until the map is redrawn.

I've read rumours that this is all due to some former member who LackAttack's father got mad at or something (I don't know the story). If so, it was inevitable that some a**hole would complain about something..it always happens sooner or later. CC should not wait until they get sued, or the site would go down while they sorted out the problems, not just a map.

I want to thank CC and an all the people involved for bringing happiness and fun to my day. I keep thinking that I should buy a membership and this "controversy" has just made me appreciate them more.

This post is insightful. Twill should follow this man's plan in dealing with the situation, as his step-by-step agenda on how to fix everything is flawless.
