Hey Chip, I've noticed if I have any 24 hour freestyle games where I'm waiting on my opponent to begin the round.. they'll appear as ready if I begin a turn during a freestyle speed game (when really I'm still waiting on the opponent(s) to begin their turns. Would be awesome if that small thing was fixed.

I know, I know, I have been waiting for a site fix for ages.

Question to previous posters:

The checkbox for speedgames only in sidebar will not be persistent, I assume this is ok.
Also what sounds do people want - can you post me links to sound files or locations please.

I am looking into this now

Thanks

Is it possible to rework this for GC please?

If not, no big deal

Can you give me all your settings please - this is a little strange.

For the people who have requested sound, here is what I have done, can you let me know if this is what you want please.

The sound file is configurable from the Addon Options.

Actually playing a sound is done from the menu in the browser.
That means you can potentially configure sounds to activate on different views.
But this also means you will have to manually enable sound each time you open a browser - is that ok?

By the way, for those who dont know, to see this in Firefox 4, you need to turn on the add-ons bar
firefox->options->add-ons bar
or just press ctrl+/

It already works!
What did you click on? The yellow button should have a warning before install.

Ok looks like we will have to wait for Mozilla to get its act together so you will have to wait until it auto-updates, I'm afraid.

does the new version use a smaller font on the left side of the screen (or less spacing) so that the number of turns fits all on one line. right now it is like this

My Games [ 33 turns
]

This appears to be working now, can you try and download again just to check? If same thing happens then we have to wait for auto install.

I cannot seem to get sound notifications, where can I find them.

Also, this may be too specific and I understand if you just decide against it because barely anybody needs this :P, but is it possible to see in the sidebar in which gamephase you are (Deploy, attack, fort)?

This thing has gotten so good though :) I must admit I deinstalled it at some point, big mistake :)

I did update it to 1.7.0 yesterday (I found it in KP's topic about not missing speed turns - General Discussion).

Anyway, I don't know how to "program" the sound.

I am glad someone is reading the help, that is taking most of the time to do, actually.

Okay, great, found it.
It's a bit confusing though... There seem to be three places for 'Settings', for Mac here at least: the sidebar, the top screen bar, and the Extra > Addons > Preferences...

Now that I found the sounds, I have some more questions:
-Can I disable the sound for when I end my turn/begin my turn/run out of time? i.e. only play the sound when the status of a game goes to a 'green dot' :)
-Can I play an extra sound (maybe even one that can be different from the other), when the Early Warning Time in a turn is reached?
-Right now a rotating loading sign is showed every time the script Reloads. This puts the name of the user and the time remaining a bit to the left and back each <Reload Time>. This is not calm, so could there possibly be another picture when it's not reloading? If you understand what I mean.

Anyway, I just played a couple simultaneous speedgames just now. It truly works like a charm :D This will greatly reduce the speedgameturns I miss :)
