A place to collect some ideas for improving agencies.

All good ideas.

A number of agencies are inactive, abandoned, or aren't much more then a place where one or two members play one or two games every month. Maybe a feature that allows you to set your agency at inactive. Then have a top 10 of active agencies, and a top 10 of inactive agencies. Once you enter the top 10 of inactive agencies, the collection fame points stop, you are unable to treasure hunt, but you are able to play games still.

A great amount of enthusiasm for many go in to making it up the list, and see yourself move up. "Beating" an agency on the way up, has a different meaning when you are actually competing, instead of passing a dead body along the way. If the inactivity list also indicates the date and your ranking when you went inactive, then you can actually sort of see against which agencies they actually competed along the way.

Substitute top 10 for any number you want BTW, 20, unlimited, whatever.

Bottom line is, i see a few benefits 1) agencies that were once number 1 or whatever sort of get a hall of fame, 2) more agencies get to experience seeing themself move up, 3) move up in relation to active agencies, 4) You can easily see what agencies have stopped playing 5) for some people it will give some closure, and everybody knows this agency has retired (like ERF, swan, hutch, swan, chicago....all greats of the past.)

I notice the agency listings have changed recently. Not exactly as all the suggestions here, but now up to 20 agencies in each city. Unless it was like that before and it's just the page formatting that is different now?

*doesn't check them often enough to be sure*

I am pretty sure Old Fogies wasn't on there a couple of days ago, because NY only went up to ten?
