I would like the option of simply reducing the number of AIs that show up on the scoreboard.
The current SVN version (you can download the nightly snapshot from the BUG Mod home) has this feature in it. We will be releasing 3.6 very soon if you don't want to install via a ZIP file.
Plus you can have options like displaying civs that you can see their research, civs on the same continent, or even specifically adding or deleting civs.
A common request is a scrolling scoreboard which I'll be adding sometime soon. I am a big fan of filters in interfaces, and these are some good ideas. I doubt I'll make it so you can pick and choose the civs to display as that's a lot of work. I'm not ruling it out, though.
Can someone point me to where I can find a sort of legend of features added and what they mean (esp if they're explained with screenshots).
You can open the help file installed with BUG by hitting ALT + CTRL + F1 or opening the BUG Options screen (ALT + CTRL + O) and clicking the BUG Help button. It currently lacks screenshots, but it does at least describe all the features and how to use them.
For example, I was having the hard time figuring out what that orange fist(s) meant on the scoreboard.
That actually means the AI is refusing to go to war with any other civ because they are WHEOOH (We Have Enough On Our Hands). It either means they are in a war or are planning a war soon. Be mindful when refusing demands from them.
Once again thanks for the great work. I really like how a lot of the strategy guides are in the civopedia.
Thanks for the compliments. BUG owes a lot of its goodness to the community of modders, so it's good to recognize all the forum posters as well.
