:lol: It wasn't really intended to be a rant, but I guess it did sort of turn out that way. :)

Which begs the question - is there any system for moving the suggestions on? Once we've kicked it around and knocked the stuffing out of it - what then?

Even a second "Randy's considered this" forum where Randy uses, I dunno, [yes] [no] and [maybe] tags in the title? That way there would be some feedback and we'd know whether any particular suggestion was being considered or not. :idea:

I seriously(tm) can't think of ANY use for this. There could be a check for wad updates but that shouldn't happen in the wad via ACS.

Even the online scoreboard is totally impracticable if you think what's needed for it.

Considering that you need a web server for it to work it will limit it to a rather small amount of mappers. Considering even more that many players here don't care about stuff like this makes it a rather unappealing feature. And now considering that this 'feature' suggests that each mapper has to code this shit for himself makes it DOA.

End result: Forget it! It's a total waste of time.
