One silly little thing that I would like to see:

I like playing with the Score graphs off in multiplayer. But I'm always so curious about them at the same time. What's I'd like is a way to set them up so that the graphs would be visible like once every 20 turns or something. So everyone gets a report on all the other factions periodically.

Either that, or make it so that scouts can give you data by infiltrating the enemies capital, or something.
I was contemplating with Velusion about nerfing graphs a little bit, by collecting the scores.html files from the turns and generating an overview of the nations which doesn't reveal too much information. It should only give a list of the top nations like in Civilization, and maybe show a trend aswell (rising/constant/declining). Thus you know who is outperforming the others, but you don't know by how much he's doing it. After the game the data could be used to generate exactly the same graphs as in the game, too.

Since we had other things too keep us busy with and didn't talk about this again I didn't pursue this any further, but if there is interest in it I could whip up a PHP script or something.
