4. When leaving the game minimized for more than a few minutes sometimes results in a frozen game.

I've transfered cargo to a colony ship just fine before, I believe?

AT, this is a valiant effort. However there are already other bug threads and I believe there is a SEV bug reporting/tracking system on another website.

What we really need is more than a thread. It may already exist somewhere and I sure hope that MM has one, but what we need is an online bug database. We could make sure each bug is only reported once, decide on severity, priority etc. There should also be a difference between a bug report and a feature/change request. There could be an input form which goes to the admin for screening, entering. Users could search the database for info and seeing if their bug is already reported. MM could be sent regular reports. Maybe even have user input for priority assignment.

Spaceempires5.com has a decent bug reporting system, but it lacks active administration with respect to marking items fixed...

That and as per the chat, Aaron doesn't actually USE it.

He needs to be force-fed.

So we need to create a definative list of bugs, UI, and gameplay changes. Put these suggestions in a clear and concise usable format for him to use and better the game.

In that case, it's probably a better idea to wait a week or so for 1.24, so we don't get already-fixed stuff on the list.

When a CHAMPION for this effort volunteers, the community will respond, I am certain. It would be a large undertaking which must be committed to for the long term...

hmmm... can't see anything but ocean from Hawaii...

That's not exactly true as I know he does reference it from time to time... if more players used it, that would increase the pressure for SFI/MM to maintain and use it more actively imo.
