I knew it was too good to not already be there.  Thanks Alpha!

- Updated ranking history page - now includes links to boards which shows ranking history on that board.

- Factory auto-assign separated from continent checking loop to prevent chaining of auto-assignments

- Factory auto-assign checks for player elimination by capturing their last territory or capturing their last capital

- Negative factories check for player elimination if factory destroys their last unit (or last capital)

- If factory auto-assign results in the elimination of a player this is treated the same as a regular elimination in terms of card capture, reserves capture and elimination bonus.

- In player profiles the ratings page now shows the board image instead of the player profile image

Are you talking about this page: http://www.wargear.net/players/info/Yertle/Ranking%20History

and that the update now includes the Board Links there? 

Also, those Board Links point to the Board ID rather than the Board Name, which means some are out of date due to new versions being present.

There was a small bug - this has been fixed up now - it allows you to see the player's ranking history on each board.

- Added warning message when ending vacation: "Warning!  By ending your vacation now you will be booted/skipped in N games"

- Added Ignore function to tournament / game messages. This is available to all players (not just Premium) and only affects the current game.

That's a good feature. I find it would be also very usefull if the link was located close to the player's name in the Rankings page of that board.

Unconnected, another link I would love to have, close to the Launch player link after the Game Name, is a direct link to the End of last turn of the History. A small H could be an idea.

Is this an "ignore this message", "ignore all messages", or "ignore all messages from this player"?

Also, is ignore synonymous with hide.  I am just trying to figure out the use for this feature.  Thanks.

It's ignore all messages from this player within this game / tournament. It was requested due to concerns about certain players being abusive in games.

Thanks, I just wanted to make sure I understood it. 

Might I suggest adding a tool tip that says "Ignore/Hide this and all other comments from this player."?  It would be great if it came along with something about the scope of this feature as well.  I imagine the messages are probably the same object used in both the tournaments and the games.  If not then the message could be "Ignore/Hide this and all other comments from this player within this [game/tournament]."  where the appropriate game/tournament is displayed.

This is really minor, but I thought it might not be obvious.

- Added team luck (table and toggleable addition to luck chart)

Very nice, although whenever I slide the range of the graph, I always wish the stats in the charts  would reflect the slider range; that would be very handy for analyzing game swings.

Yes that's possible but will take a bit of rewriting.

T'would be nice ..but lower on the list for me, especially if it involves a time consuming rewrite.  As you all know, I'm much more interested in the development of the designer side of the game than I am the analytical tools.

I'll second that.

- Fixed bug with factory eliminations leading to games still appearing as awaiting player's turn

- Capital actions occur before player elimination checking when dealing with Factory auto-assignment of territories

- Attacks across artillery borders in SimulGear games now cannot reduce territories to <1 unit if abandon is off

- Attacks across artillery borders in SimulGear games are discarded if the target territory has no remaining units to defend with (no more 'Player A attacked Player B with 0 units' actions in the game history)

Player elimination still seems to be happening first.

see new Pong thread in Support Area for an example.

Are the eliminations the result of a direct factory reassignment or due to negative factories and abandon on resulting in the territory being converted to neutral?

To reduce the negative impact of surrendering and make it easier to surrender the following actions have been taken:

- Number of surrenders statistic is no longer visible on player's profile

- In two player games or games with only two players remaining, surrenders do not require the approval of the other player
