These three are by far the best updates to date.

And now that the top 5 killer prize is actually worth it, there's going to be a slaughterfest to keep the top 5 spots. XD

*EDIT* Can we also get a list of like top 20 in the team kills section so we know where we are at if we get pushed out of the top 5?

so if i give up 7 ddays i can make ecs at 60 energy now?

Awesome updates Aoen.. Keep it up! *Standing Ovation*

Sweet!!

These have been a long time in the making ENJOY!!

I love these new updates, they will really help the game along, however i would like to ask a simple question being a nettie all my life

Any chance we can make this for both teams?

Oh and the ec making production line thingy is really cool

I believe the top 5 killers on the losing team have always got ec's

Fixed "Last on" from view page. Forgot to upload a js file.

I think it only starts at 7 seconds (viewed my own page and that was the lowest it got to)

Oh, and any chance of adding it to the sentence times of people who are in jail (both on the jail chat and the people who are jailed page)_?

i see no real use for this... but what ever
the jailed users page is useless as it counts down days. how often do you leave that page open for days?

auto freshing stats would be better

i think he means the jailed hackers page, not the jailed users page

no. what.. you want to bust him out in the last second or what? i don't think there is anyone staring at that page waiting... idk what. if you do, you have a problem

Whilst i love some of these changes as they promote a healthy competition and lots of killing.

I also see the down side. The newer players and those lowly in ranks will not be able to play as they will constantly be shut down for everyone killing. People get 25days newbie protection but thats it. The game also needs to consider what can be done to keep people here - the lack of people coming and staying was what really killed the game before reset.

Is there a cap on how many times you can get killed per hour, unless you warring with a rival gang? It kind of goes against the idea of a hacking game. But i just feel that already the game is slowing and only the regulars are around and coming back.

Perhaps im out of touch, but just a thought to consider.

what maybe useful instead, if they have already been busted, be removed from the page. that way you dont get the message saying they have already been busted out.

but that would be a lot of coding and a different suggestion
