One of the great things about Illyriad is that it will run on pretty much anything, even a toaster. (Well maybe not a toaster, but I haven't actually tried it yet.)  So what device(s) have you used to play Illyriad? Do you have a favorite? -Luna ------------- GM Luna | Illyriad Community Manager | community@illyriad.co.uk

Mostly Desktop PC and Mac Laptop but I have access and have used a Mac, PC laptop, ipad, (iphone doesn't work very well) I didn't fill in a vote because it looks like you can only vote for one. ~Anjire |

I use my tongue. Figuratively. Actually I use my fingers.

Go Laptop, it's portable and the screen is actually bigger than your palm!

Exactly! I think if you had the option of letting folks pick more than one, or made "more than one" an option, you'd be surprised by how many of us access Illy through multiple devices... |

| You can vote as many times as you want. I voted Desktop and Android, although there's a new bug in Android where the Next Events sidebar now relocates over top of the main window. I'm guessing this is a new bug as a result of trying to fix the problem where Next Events wasn't fully visible on the right side of the screen. |

Yeh me and SC noticed this at GDC. You'd have to ask him where it is on his list of to-dos, but what's strange is that the bug didn't exist for me before. I played it normally on Android all the time (from the bath, of course! lol) Beau

I mainly use my laptop, but I've taken to using a friend's iPad he left at my house. I've used my Android phone in the past, as well. Laptop experience far outclasses both. Mouse/Trackpad > Touch |

Alright, uhm...I was kinda bored and was just horsing around in lala land, when I by accident clicked the voting button again - and my vote was registered. I think the poll is broken or my interface is playing tricks on me O_o |

Ask the dev team for web log stats; you get good browser and device usage info there :o) But go ahead; this thread might bring up some interesting or useful discussion points.

I play Illyriad mostly my desktop computers (iMac & Ubuntu). When on the road either on the iPad or the iPhone. Works great on the iPad

| Almost solely from my laptop. But when I am traveling and in a particularly self flagellating mood, I will access via Blackberry browser. |
