It would be great to see all that empty, gray space in the bottom right half
of the program's screen used to display which xml files had already been
uploaded for that turn. Is this a possibility for the future?

At present we have no plans to do this. It's a matter of no programmer (he got promoted!) I'll keep a record of this but we'd need someone to do it.

Note at present we have no plans to run this.
1) the scenario has not been designed.
2) we'd charge you an arm and a leg to set it up. £15-20 for labour (it's a LOT of work to get players, modify and then fix all the errors that come up)
3) I am not sure that the concept is sound - although Ken and I have chatted about it's very much in the planning stage and might not occur
4) We can't run 1st or 2nd age scenarios. We can emulate them in 1000...
5) There aren't enough players interested nor (IMO) will there be. Players doubling up helps but makes the game much more precarious with a MUCH bigger chance of the game dying as finding replacement players is going to be hard going.
6) Ken, unlike Richard and Chris is relatively new to Middle Earth so I am not sure that it will be balanced. Last Alliance wasn't (not sure about Wotr Variant 2950) and Gunboat took a bit of tweaking (as did the 12v12 game and still Rhudaur is a deader). It takes a lot of experience to design such a scenario. Note I am not saying Ken's idea is bad or that he can't do it but that it hasn't been done. He's got some good ideas and a nice idea for advertising as well.
7) Not sure that Bigger is necessarily Better
8) We get about 1 a month of "cool great idea for a new scenario" 
(Discussed this with Ken - he's in a similar professional role to us and had "LOL" for that one!)
Sorry to put a damper - I prefer to be a realist than get your hopes up. We've got some plans for something that is possible and to keep the cost down for you guys as well but that's for the future.
