Vanilla scoops: USE THIS THREAD ONLY!There should be no limit to the number of people in a clan. It is really the major social aspect of what is a fairly simple single player game. You should even be able to join more than one clan. Make it easy for communities to develop in game.
I think moving to a set of clan vs individual challenges would be best. Make people be forced to choose how they want to allocate their actions- for group benefit or personal? Some people will want to be the best in their bracket, but that will come at a price of hurting clan performance. Competitive vs non competitive clans will evolve out of that, and game mechanics won’t need to be introduced to handle it.
Don’t make people make an explicit choice every week/month/leap year whether or not to participate in aspects of the game. If people notice that their clan’s bracket is especially weak, then they should be able to take advantage of that, without having to wait for the next round (when the weakness may not exist) or for the clan leader to push a bumon or etc. (view post) |

New scoop flavor: I propose "Blood" scoopsI’m bumuming that vanilla nerfing is a given at this point. It’s fine if one flavor is the most popular, but when it outnumbers all the others, put together, by an order of magnitude or two….
I also think antifreeze will be next on the chopping block. Successful gambling is its own reward, and I doubt many people are suiciding except as required by plot points. But making this a mechanism for antifreeze would work too, I think.
I think the goal of the competition is to get people to spread out to different parts of the game. As more people “win” episode one, competition will be the only thing holding them here once the narrative is done. (view post) |

New scoop flavor: I propose "Blood" scoopsAdding a new scoop flavor might help with balancing the competition aspect.
I propose “blood” flavored scoops, which are earned by taking or absorbing large amounts of damage while pwning a forum. This would aim to a troll’s strengths, just as lemon aims at camwhores. It would also give those poor, deluded re-re’s something to gun for, and match well with some of the emokids attacks.
A flavor that rewarded damage taking would pull some people out of endless speed runs in dentistry and fitness. It would replace the antifreeze mechanic that I think (in my limited experience) is almost entirely ignored. I think it would pull people into the harder forums, and provide a reward for that.
Thoughts, theories?

What is the "buildr" score?Across the top of the screen, it tells me that I have a 0 buildr score, and 0 submissions left.
I have gotten a few submissions accepted previously, so I am confused what the score refers to.
Also, is there a way to increase the number of submissions you can enter?
