Xfire XO Toolbar (Track Ikariam on Xfire!)

Hey all! Sorry I haven't been terribly active in the forum lately. Work has been pretty busy lately. In fact, my work is what this post is about.

One of the reasons I initially applied to WNx for an Ikariam Alliance was that Warrior Nation is such a strong supporter of Xfire. The program hasn't been much use for web games previously, but it's getting quite a bit cooler as we speak.

The Xfire XO Toolbar (Beta release!) can track your Ikariam hours on Xfire for display on your profile. Screenshot support for your profile should be on the way soon (which would make contests like the BOTT a little simpler perhaps?). Kujoe, you can now add "Ikariam.org" as a favorite game on the WNx Ikariam.org-Gamma Xfire Guild. Woot! As I mentioned, the XO Toolbar is in Beta at this time -- and we'd love your feedback on it.

One other thing to mention is that a Beta release of Xfire Communities (Unlimited Clans) is live on the website now. If there is a need for a Clan to be larger than 300 members, you can now set it to be "unlimited". This isn't a good idea for the WNx Ikariam Guild on Xfire, as Unlimited Clans do *not* appear in your Xfire client program friends list. Perhaps someone higher rank than me could suggest that an "Xfire Community" be made for WNx as a whole? Currently the biggest Community we have is just over 4,000 members; I'm sure WNx could rival that in short order. The Unlimted Clans do not count against the 5-clan limit on Xfire. Again, we'd love to here your feedback, and you can join a test clan by clicking here:

So, full disclosure: I'm plugging the new Xfire features here and asking for your feedback because I work there. Last week, actually, marked the end of my 3rd year as a Webmaster and now Web Dev at Xfire.

Thanks, guys!

Woot!

Thanks for telling us about this Artaxs. I've just installed it. If I have any feeback, I'll be sure to tell you
The game is now set as our favorite game in the xfire clan.


Edit: well deserved +rep

This is amazing! Wooooo!

Awesome thanks.

Ha That's cool!
GJ!

Edit: People keep telling me it's really annoying because everytime I switch tabs it says I stopped playing. And everytime I go back, I start playing.
I guess thats necessary?

K2 -- Initially, I think we only wanted to record hours for a webgame while it was actually being played instead of minimized. If enough people complain in the Xfire forums, I'm sure we'll change that behavior.

Again, any feedback on the Toolbar or on Xfire Clans and Guilds is greatly appreciated.

Shnazzy stuff there
Thanks Artas!
