Tarman's Flamebate Posts

Fix trophy grouping.

Veer Posted:

Allowing people with lots of medals to fall back down every new season is a ****ing terrible idea, because then casuals get raped and can’t get medals. If you start winning lots of medals, of course you’re going to end up with the big boys.

Honestly, the only ****ing terrible idea here is having Velveteen and Gamble-Bot 3000 grouped with the newbies for a month straight.

The domination season idea would stay intact, since only medals from that season would count for the end-of-the-season e-peens.

Is this in response to me, or just unrelated commentary?

Veer Posted:

It takes most of the season for people to be placed where they should be, anyways.

If by “most of the month” you mean “one or two weeks,” then yes, yes it does.

Honestly I’m not an accurate person to be using. Yes I have 10 medals and am I member of Episode 2 Beta but I joined this week and all my previous medals were earned as a solo player in a solo klan just like your tarman.

There are tons of reasons why people are noncompetitive in domination: not in a competitive klan, target of a competitive klan, in a competitive klan but unable to raid as often as other players, focused on non-domination aspects of the game.

Changing the bracketing system wouldn’t fix the underlying issues that plague domination but they might alleviate some of the symptoms. However you are right there are going to be less competitive members of competitive klans that are going to dominate the lower medal brackets. Further there are going to be players like Scully, Pickled, Myself and even you that have access to a large number of very competitive alts that are going to be perpetually pushed into less competitive brackets.

Further as the majority of episode 2 beta and brainfreeze are getting cleared out of the scrub brackets there are going to be a large number of players from enjoy and 70 character storytellers that get medals in the next couple of weeks. Some will get 4 medals and get placed in the top bracket and they will be screwed for the next month or so.

I’m sure we agree that something needs to be changed. Still, it seems to me that no matter what method of grouping you use, the people who dominate lower brackets will inevitably end up in higher brackets.

That being said, I have to admit, your argument’s swayed me. I suppose it might be a nice change for the rest of the domination season. Regardless, I still feel that keeping such a system intact for more than one season would simply cause problems; but hopefully there will be some kind of solution before the end of the season.

There is a list of people in the top 3 brackets who are raiding and have 10 or fewer total medals. In other words, this is why this won’t work at all in the short term. All it takes is one raider in a non-raider bracket to completely dominate.

Now, it might work in the long term. However, I see a few flaws with it:

1) People waiting until the start of a new domination season to earn medals, so that they can be #1 for that season without ever having to enter a top-medaller bracket.

2) This change would allow, for example, a top-medaller’s newly-made alt to stay in low-medal brackets for a longer period of time, essentially perpetuating the problem.

But anyone with half a heart feels sorry for this girl.

I hate to break this to you, but millions of people die every year. This one isn’t any different.

Edit: I used to feel bad. But feeling bad for a couple million people really drains you. Then you stop feeling bad and just kind of accept it, unless it’s someone close to you.

I just told you. I can’t change the thread title. Thus, it is impossible for me to do anything about the problem.

Exactly. This is true. Perhaps irrelevant, but definitely true.

Here we see that MC Banhammer has stated that making comments regarding the rules are ok provided that they are in response to a post that is against the rules.

or just plain annoying things like UPPER CASE text.

May I ask why you quoted this?

Also, you failed to give credit to the original poster.

The exact rule you are quoting states “Do not be a prick”.

Actually, the rule that I’m quoting is “there’s no place for comments like those in non-RP”
