Updated once again. I'm assuming the games you own do work so I put them all on green.
The chart is looking pretty good right now. Someone should tell Tiberains and repcommanod to reply since they don't seem to be active on the forums. Has Cdr_McBrag been playing with us in a while? If he is playing regularily or semi-regularily, he should be told the same thing. Glockman, FRY and ironside haven't been seen in a while as far as I know, but if you meet them online, tell them to reply here.
I'll rearrange the chart a bit and separate the veterans from the rest. I'll try to arrange people by nationality as well if I remember where they are from.
Edit: done. Rearranged by nationality. This way we won't only know the games the other Spartans have, but also which time zone they are approximately in. This helps coordinate events and predict the amount of ping people might get. If I get enough information, I could divide the Americans into West Coast, East Coast and the middle area.
If you are not in the correct position in the chart or if I haven't put you under any nationality, please inform me on this thread. I have a bad memory so probably at least one or two are under the wrong nationality. And of course errors happen when editing threads so people might be in the wrong place without me even noticing putting them anywhere in the first place.

Of your unknowns, Lambourne is a Brit and the other guys are American.

Thanks. If someone is under the wrong nationality on the chart, let me know and I'll correct any mistakes. It would be good if someone who knows everyone checked the chart to see if everyone's listed properly.

My latest idea to improve the thread: including the DLC for BF3. If you have bought Premium, in practice you have bought all the DLC. TemplatePremium: Back to Karkand: Close Quarters: Armored Kill: Aftermath: Endgame: How to use:Just like before, type "yes" or "no" after the expansion pack's name. Or if you have purchased Premium, you don't have to do anything but state it. Ooh, the Premium thread helps a lot here spartanwf.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=bf3&action=display&thread=1590It seems that Spartan, wobbly and hakanp have already bought Premium. And that Scriv is NOT buying the CQC expansion. And most likely not Premium. Neither will I. If you buy Premium, you can't avoid buying CQ. I don't want any members to attempt to leave the clan (thankfully SWF is like Hotel California, you can check out any time you like but you can never leave... creepy) but some of us act like a resistance force and boycott such expansions to make Battlefield focus on where it's supposed to.

I'm not here to judge, but everyone who hasn't bought Premium yet, consider carefully. You have no idea what you are buying, apart from Close Quarters and one map of Armored Kill. Wait, read reviews, watch videos, ask friends' opinions. Don't just give DICE 50$ blindly. And if you buy Close Quarters, Scriv will give you the evil eye.

I bought premium for the extra crap, I could care less about CQ, figured for what I might get its an interesting gamble, if they screw it up I will not buy stuff like this again from them in the future just like Call Of Duty.

The point is to make it easy for anyone to see who has which games, which can become hand if you are planning an event. Maybe you'd like to create an Armored Kill event, but just by checking the first post of this thread (which I will update...soon) you could see that no one except you has the expansion pack. So it would be pointless to arrange the event as no one could be able to play with you. Then you could think of another alternative for AK. Maybe check who has Arma 2 or Project Reality and turn it into an event where you play one of those. And even if you're not planning an event, you can see that even if I happen to join the BF3 Teamspeak channel, I won't be able to play. So it wouldn't be like "Yay, Al, the most handsome man I have never seen, is finally playing in the same time with me, I'm going to play some BF3 with him! Hey Al, do you have BF3?" to which I would reply with my deep voice coloured by my strange accent "No." So thanks to the chart, we can avoid these sad moments.
Viper: I didn't post a thread on the DLC. This is a thread called "Which games do you own" and I described its purpose earlier in my post. I guess you meant I posted a "post" on the DLC. It doesn't matter, anyone can get confused with terms.

At the moment it's just B2K for me thanks Al.

Actually it's more trouble than it's worth to edit the original chart just to add the expansions. Fear not, I have a solution. I'll make a BF3 expansion chart, which will work just like original. And I'll add it to the first post if there's room for it.

In case anyone's been wondering why I don't like editing the first post very much or are just curious about what it looks like in the editing window, here it is:
As requested by Scriv, I'm now the one handling the list of who owns which games, and making a new thread for it.
I'm splitting the first post into multiple ones for ease of use. On the first post, there will be the list in its latest version. On the second, instructions on how to post which games do you own and a template as well as an example.
[u][b]The official clan games:[/b][/u] BF2 - Battlefield 2 PR - BF2 Project Reality Modification (Mod) BFBC2 - Bad Company 2 BF3 - Battlefield 3

And oh yeah, that was just the first 1/5 of the first post, from the beginning to the last American in the main part of the chart. Note that the editing window is quite small so it's even harder to read and write text on it. In the editing window there are more characters than in the posted version because of the color codes I use. I'll give an example of what a green-colored word looks like in the editing screen vs posted version.
[color=LimeGreen]Word[/color] Word
In Scriv's original version there were no colors, making it more difficult to read and to edit. In it you had to add or remove dots so the words "yes" and "no" would be approximately at the same position on every line. It was a pain in the ass to handle, so I suggested alternatives. The best one was the one I'm using right now, with the color codes. It still takes some time to add the color codes and/or remove existing ones, but nowhere near the amount you needed in the "Scriv.....yes.....no.....yes" version. It's still very time consuming to add more games to the list, which is why I decided to make a new small chart just for the BF3 expansions. The time I saved by doing this was probably a couple of minutes. But it was a lot easier and mistakes weren't so easy to make this way. And hopefully it's easy to read two separate charts.
I just got yet another idea to make the chart a bit better. Or maybe it wouldn't. First there would be the game's name, and after that everyone who doesn't own it. The same for the ones who don't own the game. This way it would be just as easy to see who owns game x and it'd be much easier to edit. Like this:
BF3 - pershainovitsh BF3 - Scriv, Phoenix, Spartan, wobbly, BTTF, mcGuirk, repcommando, Tiberain, Viper etc
I'll try to make a complete version of it to see how would it work. Maybe tomorrow.
