Hall of Fame Results Layout Update

[duke o' york]

Well I've got PLUS, and I can see your legend for two entries. Also Dr Spike's. As if we need his ego pumped up any more, with his "King of Forum Spam Games" sig and all.

[Aeson]

I was refering to the "supporter" image. Is there an option to not have it displayed on your own posts if you are a PLUS subscriber?

[duke o' york]

Yes, you get the choice of "Supporter", "Inmate", or "None".

[Peets]

eumm, I can't read it
White and grey don't work that well?

you do realize that you would still have other people's info "infected" by the extra hof note...

I didn't submit them to the HOF, nor did I ask for them to be submitted for me.

you submitted them for our civ3 tournaments, it's the same thing...

And if I were to subscribe to plus, does the image stuff come with it, or can that be turned off?

it's optional

[Aeson]

I'm not concerned about the stuff linked with other people's posts. Just mine.

The tournaments that I submitted to are not what the HOF is now. If they were, I would have been asking if the link beside my avatar could be removed 4 years ago.

If you say the games have to stay, I understand. I'm just asking if they can be removed.

Ditto what Aeson said. Kill it. There's already enough crap littering every post without adding another line which nobody will ever care to click. 90% of those links will point to games which aren't worth preserving. Mine certainly isn't. I don't really see the point of reminding me (and everyone else) of it every time I post.

[MarkG]

the idea is to promote "on-topic" participation to site events/services...

[DrSpike]

I also think there should be an option to remove it. It seems odd to make everyone keep it whether they want it or not.

I know it's not a democracy but I am sure there are other ways to support the HoF.

[Krill]

Another voter with no vote voting to kill it.

Hmm. Ok. It's just a vague irritation. Particularly for CtP2 games where there were so few participants that its more a Hall of Participation rather than a Hall of Fame.

Would there be some way to signify which game it refered to? Or make it appear only in posts in the forums for that game. Or make it another CivGroup Icon? Or put it in user profiles. Or just make it more concise "game HoF" or something.

I can't help thinking that raising the profile of future events is more worthwhile than raising the profile of past events.

[snoopy369]

Or what about only listing HoF *winners* ??

As a civgroup, or a separate listing?

[MarkG]

bleh, i guess i could make it show up on wins, but i want to promote participation not winning....

[notyoueither]

Give people an option to turn it off. Not many will.

Your desires will be met, and people with strange tastes (like an over-active fondness for orange) will be happy too.

I just noticed the HOF link had been made optional. Thank you!
