I cleaned some dust off it today and the peak CPU temp has gone down by about 8-9 degrees!

I wouldn't mind too much but I only cleaned it out about 4 months ago ¬_¬

As me and shadow discussed a little bit about ad blocker in the other topic in polling, I thought it'd be interesting to see how many people on RWL use ad blocker and what reasons you have for using one too

I'll start by saying I don't use one, I'll post a reason later (I can't be bothered now, it'll probably end up quite long too)

It's all a conspiracy I tell ya!

A CONSPIRACY!

There are three people on 70K land . . . . I almost feel like my effort to scrape at least 150K these past few runs have gone to waste

Does the "Delete old reports" button on the espionages page, delete only selected espionages, or does it say, delete espionages that are older than 10 days?

If it's the former maybe it could be changed to "Delete selected reports" ? If not maybe such a button could be added . . . I'm afraid to touch the "Delete old reports" button incase it deletes things I'd rather it not delete

Was it worth it?

[4061]

I think I asked about this before, but didn't fully understand the answer:

When I attack with 2,036,963 leaders and my opponent only has 190,406 leaders this happens:

"You also killed 4061 Leaders, losing 179973 of your Leaders in the process!"

Why do I lose so many leaders? This must be intentional but I can't understand why, for example if I attacked someone with 190'406 rats and I had 2 mil rats it would probably look something like this:

"You killed 50'000 rats and lost 20'000 rats in the process"

Can someone please explain???

[and -1 Warlords have been abandoned.]

"1 of the 54 players in the game are currently online.
3 Warlords have been destroyed, and -1 Warlords have been abandoned."

I don't know if I'm missing something here . . . but how can -1 warlords be abandoned???

I now have The RWL forums pinned as an app tab in FF4 :D

What does everyone think?

How can you 'print' a topic?

Another bot I'm guessing?

I finished a Bubble Sort Algorithm Yesterday  :D

Now all I have to do is write a Bozo sort XD

Just noticed the currently online feautre on the main menu in REG, I think it's a nice addition :) thanks Shael

Is it imminent?

This is one of two ideas that I had recently, I've only just got around to actually writing things down

I know I doubt this will get implemented (it would probably require a fair bit of work) but I thought it was cool none the less and had some free time to make some mock-ups (although admittedly they are quite bad . . . )

Well here goes

My idea was to replace the mail link near the top left of the screen with something like this:



Each little image represents something (I think most are quite obvious)

Mail shaped icon leads to mail when clicked on
Sword shaped icon leads to warlords hut when clicked on
Dollar shaped icon leads to cluny's hut (possibly . . .) or to loot (might make more sense)
Apple (I know it's a bad apple) shaped icon leads to forage

The icons can also denote things happening e.g. when you have new mail the mail icon is green:



Another example when you're being attacked the sword could turn red (or maybe even flash red):



And dependant on whether your food and cash income are positive or negative the dollar and apple icon will be green or red, here the player has a positive food and cash output per turn:



I also had the idea that on hovering over the icons, a small 'pop-up notification tyoe thing' could appear below it, I've done one mock-up for the mail icon:



New messages could have a different background, and, each description should link to said message, obviously clicking on the mail icon will also bring you to your mail-in-box

others could work in a similar way, for example, if your being attacked and hover over the sword, information about the warlord attacking you (or maybe even just their name) could appear in the pop-up-box or, maybe the status of your army, e.g. no. of each unit that you have, you could display a variety of different things in each notification box but I won't rabbit on about it.

This is also heavily inspired by the Gnome shell message tray (I doubt anyone here but me will be familiar with it) so I'll try and find a video of that to try and show where I got the idea from (and how the pop-up notifications could display)

I think the title speaks for itself

I'm also proud of the variety of options available, I think everyone should be able to pick the answers that's just right for them.

Has anybody here heard about Google pulling h.264 support from Chrome? If so what do they think of it?

It's pretty hard to explain if you don't know much about the long story behind it, looking here might help:
http://techcrunch.com/2011/01/14/google-h264-flash/

Personally I think it's ridiculous, Google are being seriously two faced here, they're making it look like they're doing this for the good of the web when really it might end up in Google having more power than they already have over the web, which at the moment I think is too much

It's also stupid they advocate open video whilst having Adobe Flash baked into Chrome ¬_¬

Ahoy spa room dwellers  :)

Can you believe the poor innocent blobfish is going extinct  :(

I noticed that redwall doesn't have a wikipedia page, and I was wondering if it would be ok for me to try and create one, simply summing up what it is and a bit of background history on RWL.

I'm not an amazing wikipedia article writer but I think I could do ok given a bit of time

It could also (possibly) be linked into the redwall entry like a direct link to RWL is at the moment.
