Ties & Medals changes | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Balloon Posted:
Yeah, I wanted to restrict ties in the top bracket.. maybe for a future release.. when there are more medals.. for now, ties for all!
And yes, I agreed with you that it was the hardest to get.. that was my original justification. The mbumes don’t seem to agree. So be it. |

Stupid ties…wish I could negate that rule, I mean seriously where’s the challenge when you make the troll work twice as hard, and they KNOw that a tie will still net them a medal? Hell I could even see devious work where the top two just make a deal and stay even, blasting whoever goes for min scoops or fav flav.
This encourages Alt Cooperation as well, as suddenly the alts can tie and get medals.
Mark my words Bot, this will not be a good decision in the long run. You’re only setting up far dicier king maker situations. |

Hooray, my complaints have not gone in vain!
EDIT: Does this mean I may retroactively receive my Most Scoops medal? Log in to see images! TeeKayEff edited this message on 11/26/2008 7:21PM |

Wish I’d gone for min scoops on my main while it was still worth the trouble. Odd thing, the peens coming for medal multiples of 4 no longer makes sense. Peen just got harder to get. Midseason. |

Why would ties give any medals at all?
It’s called DOMINATION.
Not “play nice to keep a tie so everybody can feel special they got a medal” |

Seriously- if nobody can DOMINATE a particular category in their bracket- then there shouldn’t be any medals for that category. |

I liked the no tie thing, but very much support this idea. Until some new medals can be introduced this is a good solution. It will probably be a bit annoying for those in the upper brackets, but wonderfully encouraging to those in the lower brackets.
I really think new players need to feel that reward sometimes and with so many of the serious Dom players actively playing their alts for medals, I can’t even imagine how frustrating it must be.
That said, I hope ties will be removed again with the introduction of new medals. Log in to see images!
As to the min scoops reduction – this is long overdue. Anyone with experience knows that this is a considerably safer medal to go for, since you can keep yourself out of bumhole range. Doing your normal vanilla with pistachio over the week you only need 2 switcharoos and gambling to hit 30 – 60 minimum scoops. It is absolutely no more difficult than any other medal, and as I said often safer. |

Aww, I wish this rule was in affect earlier. I was screwed out of a medal when I tied a week ago… |

With regards to ties…
Douchous Baggus Posted:
Agreed, which is why ties will be removed in the long run.. but for now..
scullyangel Posted:
So, noobs get more medals.. sadly so does everyone, which brings up this point:
Canadian Kitten Posted:
So with this in mind, I’ve updated the OP.. NO TIES IN THE TOP BRACKET!
Point is, ties are meant to help new players as per scullys point.

With regards to Min Scoops…
markchd Posted:
So now that it’s only worth 1, like every other goal, it’s no longer worth it?? I’m with Scully on this.
scullyangel Posted:
And there you have it.
markchd Posted:
Good point considering a single player can only win 3 medals in a given week now. I’ll see if I can push forward a new medal. That should help you on your quest for peen.

What about, instead of changing all of the medal values (because I like multiples of four), you start offering an additional medal if you manage to sweep (take all three columns) in your bracket, which keeps the number of possible medals per week at four, or offer an e-peen for sweeping (once, or more than once, with new thresholds)? |

I like this idea and will investigate complexity.
No epeen for doing it though. If you get all 3 you’ll get a bonus medal for sweeping, and an epeen for getting 4 more medals.

I like the changes, they make sense. BINGEBOT 2015 Posted: That’s an excellent idea, because it is very difficult to get all medals in the higher brackets, from my experience it’s almost impossible (at least without huge amounts of vanilla from klan raids) while it isn’t to difficult in the lower brackets. |

Worst case scenario, you just get 3 per week.. not the end of the world Log in to see images! |

well, so much for a 4-medal sweep, great. that one of the only reasons i played dom was to get 4 medal sweeps for a peen, thanks for killing what little desire i had left to play dom with. |

translation: do not like, and do not think ties will happen enough for it to be that useful of a change. and i will miss 4 medals at once. a lot. |
