1. Group Private Chat

   This would enable players to create group chats, and also hopefully allow the host in custom scenarios to give certain players access to the public chat and others not. The idea came while playing a diplo map with vassals, if only Lords communicated in the public chat, and privately with their own vassals, it would have added a useful dynamic as the vassals wont be able to speak in a venue that is above their station

2. Please fix exploits which make use of custom scenarios to cheat points and wins.

   (Vote if you can.
   Leave a comment saying "support", if you have no vote left.)

   To be a ranked game, it has to be potentially fair. And the system will force a game to be set as practice when it is potentially exploitable. (Note: A practice game means it does not award points and achievements).

   But let's take a look at this:
   Games with AI - must be practice
   Games with uneven teams - must be practice
   Games with exploitable custom scenarios - can be ranked

   It is a big exploit. How come the system could leave the last ones behind? That's why we have a case where a cheater can get to Level 41 with 3 rigged games only.

   To make things worse, they disguise them as normal games to trick people, and the system is encouraging them to keep going by rewarding them with points now. I have to say it works very well. There are always enough prey to fall for that, even players with high levels. That's why it is very profitable.

   Think about the gaming experience people have after being tricked in this way. I believe some new players leave because of that. It is not good when their first impression is Warlight is full of cheaters and scammers. We must do something to maintain the health of this community.

   I'm seeing rigged games essentially every day, Fizzer. I think you are so concerned about fairness (and it is the main reason why you removed nearly all luck in ladder templates recently, right?), but how come you could leave such a big exploit behind? Is it fair to others who earn points in an honest and hard way?

   Fizzer, you can do something, and it is very easy. Just force all those games to set as practice only. Problems are solved once and for all. The community is better without rigged games. Thank you.

3. Make a reminder feature that works in all Warlight Window's - Not just the active game.

   Make the reminder feature (like a tone or chirp) in the browser window AND the tab for any tab that is open to warlight. This will call the player's attention as long a they have ANY warlight tab open. If you are not present at the start of a game or haven't taken your turn on time, any player can click on your player name in the game and hit a "REMIND" button, which will send a chirp tone and a flashing screen to ANY browser tab open to any warlight window. Then there would be a link to the game displayed. This would cut down on a lot of VTE. Message me if you need more info.

   "Can you make a reminder feature that users can turn on/off where they get notified of a game start or their turn, even if they may not have the game actively "open".

   Others could push a "remind button" on their profile when it their turn.

   Too many people join games and then forget they are in the game and maybe go back to the dashboard or whatever. Then, they don't hear the ticking or see PM's etc."both not being attacked and killed by the opponent prior to the turn. It would in effect be the same as each transferring to the other and if successful, the terrs would swap. This would not be used all that frequently but frequently enough to make a difference. Keep it in mind when you are playing and you will be surprised at how often it would work.

5. Commanders - rank picks separate from territory picks

   Automatically getting the highest ranked pick as your commander spot is bad. There should be a separate ranking for your commander location as well, and you submit both at once.

6. Templates should be shown for finished RT ladder games

   The "Recently Finished Games" list on the real-time ladder page gives the links to the games and shows only who played with whom, who won, and the date of the games.

   It should also show the template of the game.

   If I want to check a game played on a certain template (you know, to see how people play on that particular template), there should be a way to find an exemplary game, other than "click the link to see if it was played on that template - if not, try the next game".

   I would like to have a convenient method to reach games played on a certain template, and also to see who won against whom on which template.

8. I would love to see a tab under a player profile that shows their past games.

   I thought this was a feature already, but am still hopeful. It would be amazing to view a specific players previous game history when looking them up. It would be massively helpful for watching their strategies in specific scenarios. Thanks Fizzer!

9. Web Push Notifications

   The sound notification when a new turn or game has begun is very easy to miss and currently lacks controls for enabling only new turn and game sounds and not all the other little sounds in the game.

   Web push notifications allows you to multitask with other things that require sound without having to blast the sound on Warzone, are harder to miss, and provide more accurate information.

10. Matchmake Clan Wars based on individual ratings

    This proposal would make Clan Wars matches more enjoyable, Clan Wars more inclusive, and clans more robust.

    Clan Wars' performance is simply (# of matches played) * (win rate). This means an elevated win rate (>50%) has the same effect as a (win rate/50%) participation boost: a 30-member clan with a 75% win rate is as good as a 45-member 50% win rate clan.

    The problem Clan Wars' CW rating matchmaking causes here stems from a single rating not capturing a clan's skill well. Clans vary in skill: players significantly better or worse than their median clanmate get lopsided matches. Through their effect on rating, high-skill players in non-high-skill clans don't boost their clan's win rate significantly- their wins become their teammates' losses.

    At the aggregate, this means a very non-smooth distribution of win rates across clans: overall-high-skill clans break the matchmaking, while everyone else converges near 50%. This reduces parity: it's why the results have been so repetitive (with long dynasties). Only some clans benefit from high-skill players.

    This creates bad incentives for clans, which have historically invested in player development. High-skill players benefit from flocking together (like in Myth Busters or M'Hunters or the exodus from PKU58ers to MASTER) for CW rewards because in their own clans their high-skill means nothing: it's all-or-nothing, a step-function reward curve.

    Matchmaking based on individual ratings would make the return-on-skill curve more continuous, smoothen the win rate distribution across clans, consequently increase CW parity, and make individual CW matches less lopsided & more enjoyable. Some players join slots daily just to mostly lose or mostly win, because their clan's rating is far from their own skill level and they can't keep up with their opponents- where's the fun in that? FCC, a clan which declined sharply in skill, has also had its CW participation drop sharply because most of us just join games to get destroyed by opponents based on the clan's old rating.

    Clan Wars is meant to be an exciting competition for players regardless of their skill. The current discontinuity in clan win rates & return on skill, creating a few contender clans each season which are guaranteed to win if they can sustain high participation (while everyone else fights for lower spots because it takes a lot of effort to jump the chasm from 50% win rate to 60%+ when you can't climb incrementally, thanks to how CW rating-based-matchmaking works). This goes against the guiding principle of CW being fun for everyone, especially casual players who should be facing their peers instead of their much better clanmates'.

    Please, please, please use individual ratings for matchmaking so the competition become more fun for more people.

    This proposal would make Clan Wars matches more enjoyable, Clan Wars more inclusive, and clans more robust.

11. scale deployment/ attack bubbles so they are visible even on a large map

    on large maps, it is impossible to see what is being deployed/attacked on long borders. for example, in this image, only one side is attacking and both sides are deploying, but you can't tell the number of troops at all. https://ibb.co/Lg53Bp7

    If the size of the deployment bubbles stayed constant instead of scaling with the map, zooming in should make them small enough to be able to see what is happening.

13. Game moderators that can see through the fog

    The creator of a game would have the option to place open seats or send invites for a Moderator position (or they could just flag the player chosen to be the moderator).

    The moderator would have no territories and would not participate in the game except to communicate in public and team chats and send PMs. A moderator would also be able to see through fog.

    I can imagine a number of reasons to have a moderator but mine is to facilitate the variant game called Hunt. Here's the url to the description: http://184.106.245.61/ViewHelp.aspx?s=Variants

    The moderator seat isn't absolutely necessary to play Hunt but it would make it a bit more convenient, for instance, the moderator could watch a fogged game while the players play.

14. Rotating Fog

    have a setting in game creation where the fog state rotates (or moves like in real life). One turn it is extreme fog (foggy day) and another day it clears up and everyone can see for one turn. Another day could be a slew of Recon cards spots (spotty day). It would be on a randomizer so you wouldn't know what type you got. You could also set a default fog level so that you can have a base to go off of.

15. Objective Maps.

    New scenarios. Instead of the goal being all out war.. how about maps that call for strategic fighting/racing to a certain territory, which could even require careful planning around or through treacherous wastelands. Or how about offense/defense scenarios? (Guarding some sort of base etc.) Its hard to imagine with the current setup, but if we could tweak maps a bit (change starting locations to accommodate logical spawning in accordance with the objective of a map, etc.), this seems doable.

17. Tourneys to diable invites which doesn't meet the open requirements

    I would like to see an option which makes it impossible to invite people to an open tournament which doesn't meet the minimum requirements.

    Quite often I created a tournament with max 5% boot limit, but that can be skipped if someone invites a specific player with 15% boots... what I would like to have is a option which denies invites to players which doesn't meet the open requirements so that this won't happen...

    it will allow you to prefer entering a game where you have where you have a friend,

19. Sort add/remove from game search list by level

    When I go to add/remove players in a game...use the search tool and type in a name...by default it should sort on highest level. Many times I don't see the person I am looking for, why am I seeing level 1 and level 2 people on there? Most likely that is not who I am searching for. Please sort it so the most likely matches would be on top (highest level = most active players)

20. "Blacklist" system for maps

    I think we should be able to "blacklist" certain maps. My idea is that you add a map you don't like to your blacklist, then nobody can invite you to a game that uses that map. Additionally, these maps would not show up in your open games tab.
