Scoreboard Discussion

[Evan]

I havent read this whole thread; sorry if this was already discussed. But I kinda like what we're doing on the clan charts, where the user can sort by a different stats of their choosing, and thus they basically choose what chart they look at.

I'll be starting up a task force soon to help calculate this metric.

If I can help with that, it'd be great.

Have you seen BOB at CC ?
It is utterly fantastic.

OK so here is my idea as how to layout the Scoreboard page. I believe that this is a better use of space, in that it gets rid of the enormous amount of dead space in the Points Scoreoard, and in turn allows for more room in the Top Ten Most Decorated. With the added features, it helps to raise the stature and desirability of this Category. The Top Ten Most Decorated now has your current, and highest rank achieved. There is room for 16 or so Medals. How cool is that ? Also both avi and sig are included.

Also added, is the Highest Score All-Time. A must IMHO.

i dunno what the importance of having someone's sig added to the scoreboard is...
the rest is an interesting take on things.

Thanks.
About the sig thing. I think that it is pretty cool and desirous to be able to post up your own personal message. You can make it an animation or something if you like. As a matter of fact this file is a gif animation of Sam's sig. But for some reason it is not working.

Also it takes up space that would otherwise need to be filled with something.

Oh something that I forgot to mention- ...I thought it would be nice to have a "mouse over" on the Medals, to show them full sized.

Woah, not feeling that. Sigs, definitely not. Want to see the medals, go to the person user page. I want to push people to users pages more, this does the opposite.

We already have some ideas in the oven for the scoreboard. I'll update you in a bit.

Scoreboards for each map in the oven perhaps? That would shed some light on how some people play, for those who are curious.

It just seems odd that you would have a list for the Most Decorated, but not show the decorations.

You said earlier something about wanting to lessen the emphasis on points.
