There should be a new clbum.Perhaps a “White Knight” clbum would be in order.
For those unfamiliar with the term, a “White Knight” is an idiot who goes around championing one or more alleged ‘girls’. They’re big on ‘defending her honor’ and ****. (view post) |

There should be a new clbum.Camwhore+Troll = Trap Troll+Emokid = Fandumb (Name sux) Emokid+Camwhore = Furry
Trap would get the “Bait, tackle, and switch” and “bum” attack lines.
Example attacks include: “Obvious bulge” and “Peek-a-boo”
Fandumb would get the “Awesomer” and “**** sux” attack lines.
Example attacks include: “I don’t need to play it” and “X WAS BETTER”
Furries would get the “Yiff” and “Fursecution”.
Example attacks include: “BAWWWWW” and “Fursuiting”
Of course, if you wanted to make combo clbumes for every clbum but Re-Re then there would be a total of 10 new clbumes:
Troll+Camwhore = Trap Troll+Emokid = Fanboy Troll+Hacker = Myg0t Troll+Permanoob = Internet Tough Guy Camwhore+Emokid = Furry Camwhore+Hacker = Fiction Camwhore+Permanoob = Jailbait Emokid+Hacker = Apocalyptic Emokid+Permanoob = Dead Journalist Hacker+Permanoob = Scriptkiddy (view post) |

Why is my base offense at -10?Before you fix it, you are obligated to test to see what actually happens when you hit something.
For example, it’s possible that damage is handled as an unsigned int. That would mean that your damage would be orders of magnitude higher than any other person would ever be able to do.
Doooo eeeeet. (view post) |

Cred CapWhy not just give people the “most cred” epeen as soon as they hit the cred cap? After all, it’s kinda disappointing that it’s not available anymore. (view post) |

Although, to be fair, the best camwhore EQ is glbumes. If all clbumes got a glbumes slot then maybe they could get in on the sweet +25cha, +18off, and +12def action and balance things out.
Of course, then camwhores would need better shoes to keep up since this would leave camwhores far less effective than other clbumes. Yea, balancing things is tough. (view post) |

Artificially extending play time</offtopic>
There’s no point to people carrying abilities over from clbum to clbum, since secondary stats aren’t interchangeable.
Also, I think that if a camwhore used “fap” it would have to do an unreasonably high amount of damage, thus unbalancing the game. (view post) |

Artificially extending play timeMy suggestion is not unreasonable, and quite a few people have either agreed with it or suggested improvements.
So, why are you claiming that it’s trolling to propose and rationally discuss reasonable suggestions in the appropriate forum? (view post) |

Artificially extending play timeAlso: Giving people a nigh-useless token reward that doesn’t even boost their ePeen, and possibly giving Trolls a way to buy glbumes. (view post) |

How to introduce an awesome .moar file trading & selling systemAs long as they’re planning the story a few episodes in advance, they could get the content done in a few months. The things that will take the most time are balancing, beta-testing, and new features. Nothing like trial and error testing to slow down development, Amirite? (view post) |

Artificially extending play timeHybrid clbumes would be a major feature, and thus should be free. However, it seems only natural that CZ would take hybrids into account if they implemented this kind of system. (view post) |
11/09/2008 | |
Artificially extending play timeThere seems to be a miscommunication. The remort would be free, and picking your old clbum would be free. What would cost BP is being allowed to pick another clbum. Also, once you had played as a clbum you would be allowed to remort as that clbum for free.
Is that worded better? (view post) |

Since I have no interest in domination, that’s basically what I’m looking forward to once I hit the level cap. That’s kinda why I want there to be remorting in the game.
scullyangel Posted:t
Yes, read about it AFTER people accused me of ripping it off. I noticed that there was some text on their wiki about getting items that grant permanent stat boosts on returning from the afterlife, but that might have been just poor wording.
scullyangel Posted:
Cross-clbuming has been bantered about for quite awhile, but I really doubt it will ever actually happen in FW. Needless to say, that’s not a part of this suggestion.
scullyangel Posted:
I think being allowed to carry over some equipment would be enough, provided that they make more troll/glbumes situations.
scullyangel Posted:
... which is why I’ve been saying that it’s not unbalanced. It does two things; it lets you know how many times you’ve played through the game, and it gives you a slightly better leg-up on the early levels of each cycle.
Yes, there IS no point to grinding through the game over and over for a +1 bonus, and people who love the endgame aren’t going to take a month out of domination for something that’s useless to them
scullyangel Posted:
My current stats: Offense 50 Defense 52 Luck 38 Frugality 18 Charisma 55 Upkeep 6
That’s a total of 219 points. If I spent the next year doing nothing but grinding for +1 bonuses for some absurd reason, then I would get a bonus of between 10 and 15 points. Grinding Geronimo for rare .moar files would get me far more than twice that bonus in a tenth the time. I think it goes without saying that it’s impossible for this suggestion to unbalance things for episode 3.

Camwhore Troll Emokid Hacker Permanoob Re-re
To get an alt for each would cost 15bp, and would result in me getting a total of 24 forum visits a day. That puts more load on the game’s servers, and gives people an advantage in Domination. My proposal puts no additional load on the servers, and doesn’t give people an advantage in domination. Although it would only cost about 3 or 4BP total to get all the clbumes, it doesn’t give all the benefits that alts do.
scullyangel Posted:
I did mention that my idea would involve paying CZ for bp, right?
Edit: Too tired to think and/or type. (view post) |
11/09/2008 | |
Artificially extending play timeAh, I see, you didn’t actually read the suggestion.
I suggested a 1bp cost to add another clbum onto the list of clbumes you’re allowed to play as. That is paying. (view post) |

Artificially extending play timeVeer Posted:
Alts get 4 forum visits per day each. That’s on of the reasons why they cost 3bp each.
Veer Posted:
This doesn’t actually do anything against my general argument of ”’Pay $X to play a GAME you bought for the first time, and $X/3 every time you want to replay it.’ is a stupid policy.”
Veer Posted:
I can vaguely understand why you might oppose stat gains, but objecting to clbum changes is just silly.
I still fail to see why you object to this proposal, since it’s just changes to a single-player game that give people options. It’s not like FW is really multi-player or anything. (view post) |

First, large and expansive are synonyms in this context.
Second, the only non-linear aspects of Mbum Effect are in optional side-quests and what order you do the main missions in.
Veer Posted:
FW is admittedly lacking in optional side-quests, but you are free to do many of the missions in whatever order you so choose. There are clbum-specific missions, and I’ve little doubt that episode 3 will give alignment a larger role in the game. Further, which clbum you choose greatly changes the style of play.
How about FF7? You can’t make any meaningful changes to the plot there, it only provides the v easy difficulty level, it has comparable levels of missable content, it’s drastically more linear, and it doesn’t even provide the benefit of multiple clbumes for the leader. Don’t bother bringing up the switchable party members; we all know Cait Sith was only slightly more of a useless joke than most of the cast.
Really, it doesn’t matter what game I compare it to. The fact is that you would object to having to pay to replay another game, so why is FW any different? Also, if you don’t LIKE FW, then why are you even here to object to this suggestion in the first place?
Clearly, there are many significant flaws in your arguments, and these call the validity of your objections into question.
Veer Posted:
I always wonder why people object to suggestions without even trying to provide any valid arguments against the idea. Yes, we understand you don’t like the idea, but if it’s something you don’t have to use then why try to attack it?
So can you just answer the question “why”?

XSS Code Posted:
This sounds mostly reasonable, since only Dolphin could directly carry over through a remort. However, a player could use 69 forum visits to bash through the storyline and hit the level cap very quickly. By doing this repeatedly they could quickly rack up a lot of point bonuses.
To prevent this, I propose that people who buy forum visits be prevented from remorting for 60 days, thus making it far slower to cheat your way to a high bonus than to do it legitimately.
As far as Flezz goes, the most they can do with that is buy equipment. Not a significant issue. (view post) |

Petition for Storm****er's ideaActually, I’m talking about a recent thread where a person’s log showed that they were credited for pwning 4 forums in a row, which was almost immediately followed by getting credit for pwning 40 forums in a row. That’s something that a check list could help diagnose. (view post) |

WTF?While we’re going horribly off topic, I think that situations like this call for a feature that automatically appends people’s posts with a note which indicates that said post was the basis for disciplinary action.
Now, getting back on topic, adding music would increase the bandwidth required for the game. About the only exception would be MIDI sound which, lets face it, sucks. Further, there are legal issues that crop up if you use somebody else’s music, so anything used would have to be CC, in-house, or donated.
Of course, if ANYTHING needed sound it would have to be the “Tuscon Lepht” scenes. It just seems strange without music, gavel pounding, and people shouting. (view post) |
