suggestion about the observers

Hello!

A few days ago due to full lobby I was observer in a game and noticed that as obs you don't have the Time/Gold HUD. 

So that's it, simple idea here: Display the HUD to obs ^^

Its not as easy as it sounds to be honest.

Because you have to go into the vamp code, edit color "White" and then save it, it could be difficult though, and require the bot being edited as well.

On top of that, i don't think another vamp version is coming out any time soon so yeah. I wouldn't hold your breath.

So pessimistic , and I don't think it's as hard as you think it is, I'll have a look at some point.

For me it sounded easy as it is just adding something that already exists for human to obs, but I have no notion about map editing, so I leave it up to you ^^
Anyway it was just a little suggestion to "improve" the game but this is not that much important.

Cheers

That's a good suggestion, maybe Anon can add it in if there's a halloween version! A display table showing both side's statistics.

I think it is almost as easy as it sounds. To be honest. I just also do not want observers having too much information.

That's a fair point since the amount of times observers have gotten bored and have started saying where people are to the vamp... 

Hi hi guys,

The only thing I would want to say bout all that obs stuff, is that, even if someone ask for it, no moderator should allow some random players to be obs. In the first place the obs spot is just for clan members and for moderator/admin to check how the game is going. 
A lot of player can cheat while being obs since you can talk to whoever you want or even whisper somebody, or learning all the habits of a particular player, etc... We can not even trust all the clan members since a lot of new guys came in ( I don't want to be mean to anybody of course, just saying  )
If some players want to just " look " they can save a replay and then watch it later. No point in just being an obs, since most of the time they won't really pay attention. 

Well it's just my opinion of course, but for me no external player should be allowed or if you want to keep it that way, then Anon, should mute the obs. That's possible to only let the obs talk to themselves and even block the whispering system. It's not complicated either. 
As nhscooter said, it's better if the obs haven't all the information. Don't forget that they are just obs. 

Cheers.

I will be changing the rules of observer.

Now only Clan Rotd members will be able to be observer on request, this must not be a PEON in clan rotd, as they are lower members and new ones too. This will be added to the rules.

Thanks Guys!

About peon and " vip " in the clan, it's been a while since a shaman didn't manage it.
Well maybe I'm wrong here, but the last time I checked the clan list, there were new clan members who were " grunt ". 
All the " grunts " in the clan should be just : admins, moderators ( well veteran and vip should have it, but not really necessary )

Thanks for your hard work WildO.

Cheers.

I will edit the grunts and peons. I used too but I've been forgetting xD.
