I would consider this a theme, not an “enhancement”, and yes, I would like to try a week with that.

I’m curious as to whether you would still want to do that if the clbumes weren’t unbalanced speed wise, or if you were a different clbum.

Would this mean that 20 people hold 12 forums or 20 people hold 24 forums?

At what point does the klan vanilla get distributed?

BINGEBOT 2015 Posted:

In theory it would be two groups of 10 people. Each group would need to own 12 different forums. bumuming that both raids would want to help each other then could, in theory have 11 anchor forums and toggle back and forth on a 12th. I’m not sure if this is a good idea, or bad idea yet Log in to see images!

In theory you could do that come Wednesday with two raids from different klans.

That seems hard to do. I am all for making raiding more difficult.

Yeah I’m leaning towards it being a good idea to have multiple raids on at once. Although I’m sure there are reasons not to do it.

Sneakily vicious and filled with virtuous pit bulls.

I made a suggestion a while back about an alternative method of raiding. Simply, over 12 forums pwned, each additional forum held would earn another scoop (losing a forum and earning it back wouldn’t get a scoop) Perhaps with a bonus (2 scoops per extra forum?) once you hold 60+ forums simultaneously (number could be adjusted, possibly even rising or lowering according to time of day and general level of traffic) Add a limit on number of players or alts that can participate in such a raid, to the number of forums pwnable, for additional challenge.

Upsides;

1. It’d be a short raid

2. Raiding with 10 players rather than 5 players + an alt each would be an advantage

3. Incentive for a player to use all their visits instead of reserving them for solo, as you want to hit the top end of the raid where you get some bonus scoops.

Downsides;

1. It’d be easier to raid this way

2. And it’d get easier as time goes on, and more forums become available.

There could be ways to mitigate against these, by raising the point at which you earn scoops, or having a very strict limit on the length of the raid.

Trying to create drama to drum up the ratings by any means necessary!

All this talk about trying to balance solo vs. raiders. Bah.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Why can’t we just have separate brackets for soloers and raiders? Then no balancing is needed.

Players would default to being solo the first week, then every subsequent week they default to whatever they were the previous week. Before they earn any scoops they can toggle between solo or raiding, but once they earn their first scoop they’re stuck in whatever option they had checked, for the week. Players are put into the appropriate bracket on first scoop earned, and boom, no more worries about balancing solos vs raiders.

Technology’s in place for much of this now, with the “enable/disable” option. “solo/raiding” could use the same underlying code. All that’s needed is bracket designation.

– Replace Antifreeze limit with an exponential reward system where the most wins you have in a day, the more wins you need to get the next scoop

What is this? Who is making too much money from Blackjack or getting too many scoops? If anything antifreeze should be raised to 12 scoops to keep it inline with everything else.

The change would remove the cap so that you could get more then the currently capped limit. Maybe we’d consider giving 2 every time instead of 1 so you could get even more.

I’m not convinced that this is the best way, but I’ve certainly considered it and will keep it in mind. Thanks for the input.

So I have an idea. What if we eliminate rounds from doms. Make them go forever. So someone who hold a position for a set amount of time wins a medal, and moves to a higher bracket (while keeping all scoop and card), and so on. Unless of course he’s already in the top bracket.

It sounds kinda fun.

Read the post and don’t really get it. I’m still working on a solution that will meet the needs of raiding and keep the benefits within a fair range. For now, theme weeks are easy to implement, so that’s what you get. In the meantime I’m working on providing data for the need to make changes to Domination – and figuring out what changes are needed to balance klan raiding.

So if you have something constructive to say, I’m all ears, or I can just work in a vacuum and launch changes without discussing.

My post was to discuss my frustration with what I perceive to be a lack of concern for klan raiding. You have repeatedly said that Klan Raiding must not be broken because 50+ are being started each week. I find this to be a woefully inadequate response, and your lack of concern over how many scoops are actually being earned makes my heart break. GGM tried to raid under your new system, and it was just painful. If you are really trying to fix it, please tell us instead of repeating that you don’t think there is any problem.

Why was it painful? Because they couldn’t get to 12? Or because of slow turnover that is a result of changes you all supported? Or because they raided, with leeching, in a way the Crotch Zombie is trying to discourage?

Providing true details of the problems with the current system can only benefit.

Also, do you have any information from a Brainfreeze raid? Or was the other 49 raids, I did one, by Grey Goose Mafia?
