A few suggestions.

    Sorry if any have been suggested before, I read most of the other suggestions just to reduce the risk.

    1. When you visit someone's island from your guild roster, then hit return, you're dumped back at your island. This should go back to the guild roster. The leaderboard visit already does this.

    2. Just like you can see future skills in the Academy, it'd be nice to be able to see the future stats at each level for buildings and weapons. Some (relatively) expensive upgrades like the lvl 4 Gun tower and lvl 7 cannon offer weak increases, so it'd be helpful for planning if you could see what comes next.

    3. I agree with lengthening the countdown before attacking. Doesn't need to be much, 5 seconds would be great. It'd help if the island appeared fully zoomed out at first.

    4. One great feature in old games was the ability to exchange resources (your own. not with other people), i.e. exchange 150,000 gold for 100,000 grog, and vice versa. If you have a ton of one resource, but need a ton of the other for an upgrade, this would be useful.

    5. Increase the timeout before that inactivity "Hey,Cap'n where'd you go?" popup shows up. In the time it took me to type this message, I've seen him twice.

    6. Increase the length of time your attack/defensive logs are saved. The phrase "revenge is a dish best served cold" exists for a reason :)

    Most of these have been discussed.
    Nr.4 will prolly not happen since this will be abused. Chris (the moderator/developer on this forum) said so as well.
    Nr.5 is too avoid people being logged on and avoid being attacked o_O

    The rest like the countdown before attacking has also been discussed. Atm as you mention it is way to low:( And also if you choose to surrender even if you have not dropped any troops, you will still lose pirate rank points. In CoC for example you didn't lose any trophies if you never attacked.

    Thanks, I figured most of the obvious ones had been mentioned at some point. Just wanted to get them out there. :)

    Who said #6? It is an amazing quote!
    Also. I do like lengthening the countdown to attack. The good thing about a short time is so you get your mind thinking quickly, which is always a plus.

    #1 yes please
    #5 this should be the same length as troup recruitment time, frustrating that it is shorter
    #6 yes please

    Well, Dorothy Parker usually gets credit for being the first to say it that way in English, and she is definitely the Witty Quote Goddess, but it actually dates back to 1782, in the book: Les Liaisons Dangereuses (what the movie Cruel Intentions was based on).

    I am a storehouse of useless knowledge. :)

    But for anyone who hopes to master the art of wit/sarcasm/snarky. Dorothy Parker is required reading.

    Take it or leave it, I must offer my support for the ability to convert resources. Even if it is at a severely discounted rate, it would improve game play.
