Domination game screen | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
There’s no easy way to check which users in the same group as you on Domination are in the same Klan as you, or in fact, in any Klan at all. It’s not even on our profiles.
When I AM in a group with fellow Loathers, if it’s possible, I’d like to boost our chances of winning medals as a whole, rather than going for my own agenda.
Another cirgreat timesstance would be where I can take two medals, but am not going to be able to get the other one. If there was another Loather in the group, I would do my best to make sure they had the best chances of getting the other medal (which can be fairly easily done with cards).
So, either I’m missing something here, or the current match screen could do with an overhaul. (There are other points I’d like to make too, but I think this lack of klan-recognition is the major one at the moment)

For idiots with a TLDR stamp across their forehead:
I would like to be able to tell what Klan a person resides in, from looking at the “Current Match” page. |

I don’t know how much this would be asking, but being able to sort the screen by various columns would be nice – it’d make it easier in the 50+ person groups to see who has how much of what. |

That information actually is available on public profiles, next to the character’s name.

Right…
And that doesn’t solve my problem.
Which is that the profile it shows you when clicking someone’s name on the domination screen does not tell you which Klan they are from. |

It does if the profile is public, and they belong to a klan. It doesn’t if the profile’s not public, or if they don’t belong to a klan. If they don’t want you to know they’re part of your klan, then I say screw ‘em. If you feel differently, you can always look at your klan list for the person’s name.
That’s just giving you workarounds, though. Your original request, to see the klan on the screen itself, is certainly worthy of discussion. I personally have no opinion either way. MC Banhammer edited this message on 03/12/2008 5:36PM |

Yup, there are definitely ways of finding out what klan a person is in, this I’ll grant you.
But then again, I already knew that, and am looking to find out what Klans people are in….ON THE CURRENT MATCH SCREEN
Since Klans main reason for existing at the moment seems to be domination, it seems a little useless not to release that info. Without releasing it, you lose the whole Klan-warfare aspect. |

Yeah this would be good, and having the klan name despite having a closed profile, don’t see a reason for keeping that hidden. (you still see it if you post in the forums) |

That would be super-helpful..I’d like this feature also. |

Hulyen, it’s easy to tell who is in the Sisterhood. Just look at the vanilla column. |

True about the vanilla scoops. Although it would be very useful. Taking out klan members so they can’t help there own klan members is a good idea ;o. |

this sounds like an annoying and useless change, plus, you really don’t need to know if someone’s in your klan. you don’t. |

Oddly enough, the OP explained perfectly why you need this information. Reading is Fun-Duh-Mental.
On the other hand, if your Klan is so large you don’t recognize the other members, that’s kind of a problem. But that’s a different discussion. |

Klan abbreviations would be nice. Each klan could select upwards of 5 letters that would appear next to their players’ names in things like: the feed when you get screwed or when you get a tubmail on the domination board flamebate forum pages (not on the actual posts where the full name is displayed, but on the small link where it lists the last person who posted on a specific thread) |

There are a few flamers and a few sisterhood in my group. The last few hours will be interesting, I’ve still got 22 cards saved up, with the majority bumholes (I really lucked out on bumhole cards this time).
Anyway, as to your comment, we’ve already got 5 sisterhood members from 300 odd down to below 100. I’m sure I’ve stopped quite a few medals Log in to see images! |

FWIW, the new layout looks very special. At least before it was clean even if you had to, *GASP*, click a link before you could see what klan someone was in. |

The big Domination teams have 97 people in them. I’m not going to click 96 links and hope everyone has a public profile just so I can see what Klan everybody is in. |
