Hi Johnny, I started posting your final videos on my organization's website in order to pull in some traffic, and a common question kept coming up and I thought you might want to hear about it.

People will look at the videos and go "huh? it's over? but there's still 3~8 pretty colors still alive! WTFBORINGLAME!" and I'll keep explaining that they were in an alliance.

So is there a possibility of somehow making all countries of one alliance one color as an alternative final video alongside the normal final video? This way, it'll show the development of alliances over time and if they absorb members, lose members, members defected, etc. I think this might be a neat way in showing non-players of alliance victories as opposed to one country victory.

Edit: For instance, using Notho as an example; Everyone in PSI would be colored red. DEATH is blue, AA is green, other alliances different colors. If a country changes alliance, so does his 'alliance color' in the video, showing when exactly that country switched sides.

That would be very neat!
Another addition to videos I thought would be good would be the display of the date in the bottom corner.

another concept for distinguishing alliances could be colored lines or colored hash marks running through the countrys' own color.

I like this date idea very much as well.
