Lift Fog of War

If a player has been eliminated, the fog of war should be lifted when that player enters the game.

[b]How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:[b]
Not sure, but when I've been eliminated and I see that game is continuing, I can't see how the war is going when I enter the game.


Thanks,

This is so that an outside player cannot give away player positions during the game

Go to an active game with fog that you are in in, it will all be foggy for you as well, to prevent cheating

yeah. i agree that it would be nice to have an idea of what's going on beyond how many territories people have, but there's no way the fog's gonna be lifted as that would mean people could cheat.

No, not a very good idea as it would endorse a lot of cheating. Sorry, sir.

If it's a team game, ask your mates. If it's not a team game, then you're no longer playing so no, you shouldn't see everyone's men.

Even if active "cheating" doesn't occur, someone could think it funny to give away information - but yes, some would deliberately cheat to affect points.
