    Viewer Mode

    It may be silly, but sometimes i like watching a competitive match on replay like it was a sports event i taped. It's less entertaining though if the game tells me in advance who won. I don't wanna know. Could there be a "Viewer Mode" (or some term that fits better) button in the options that turns the colors marking wins and losses on/off?

    Songs about Wulven by: TV on the Radio, Babel, Warren Zevon

    However much one kind of longs to see the actors in war outdo each other in cunning activity, finesse, and stratagem, still one has to admit that these qualities show themselves but little in history and have rarely been able to emerge from amongst the mass of relations and circumstances.
    The reason for this is obvious enough: Strategy knows no other activity than the arrangement of combats with the measures which relate to it. It doesn't know, like ordinary life, actions that consist of mere words, i.e. expressions, declarations, etc. But these, which are inexpensive, are what the crafty one prefers to deceive with.
    This sober truth is always felt through and through by the actor in war and therefore he ceases to fancy a game of shrewd agility. Necessity presses so hard into immediate action that there is no room left for it. In a word, the pieces on the strategical chessboard lack the mobility that is the element of stratagem and cunning. - CvC, On War

    Nice idea.

    We could go one step further and have people vote replays as worthy of watching and then have a Today's / This Week's / This Month's Top Matches screen. That's a bit far off in terms of development, but it would cater for sports fans like yourself

    That'd be cool Very hard to implement at the moment though, given the history for players only spans 30 games. You wouldn't have long to vote

    I'd like a more fleshed out replay system too. Pause, Rewind, Fast Forward, etc... That'd be neat.

    Having people vote for the matches that are worth watching would provide those people who record and upload to youtube a better idea on some of the gameplay they can provide commentary on.
