Forum Format for Recording Intel - Option #1


Unfortunately, not much remains of this idea as we replaced it with Option #2, (click here) but here is a picture of part of it. We made two tabs called Off. and Def. Both contained a thread set up like you see in the picture below with a thread dedicated to each ocean (or if not much activity in a few, we'd group them together)


Off. Tab
In each thread we post anything that had to do with us attacking, spying, or casting spells on enemy cities in that specific ocean. This way, we could see what had been hit, when, and what was currently there (or what the wall lvl was at that time) while not having to dig through a ton of random reports from different oceans to find what we were looking for. 

Def. Tab
Just like the Off. tab, we posted anything that had to do with our cities getting attacked, spied on, or spells cast on them. This is the the MOST important out of either of them, maybe even the most vital tab out of the whole forum. From here we would record what enemy city had attacked, with what, and the TT of the attack (to figure out when they had launched it and thus was online). Thus, it eventually gave us a clear picture as to what the enemy had, where it all was, and where to strike when we knew they were sleeping and kill their offense.

To pull this Option off, you'll need at least 2 people that can be dedicated to making sure all the intel is processed before the reports delete themselves. (generally have several days before this happens). Stealing an idea from Option #2, it would work best if they would edit each post and write Processed at the bottom of each report. Then, all the info should go into grepointel.com so that the maps will have the current intel and it should be placed in some sort of format at the top of each thread so that it is readily available to all. It takes a lot of work, but it making killing the enemy and knowing what is incoming (so you can counter it correctly) very easy in the future.
