Actually I thought about the same thing – and I agree. It’s not like martyring would become a decent alternative to gambling, but at least the amount of Log in to see images! |

I don’t think 10 scoops, but maybe 4 or 5. I do agree that 3 visits is a high price to pay for just 1 scoop. |

Maybe 5 scoops for 3 martyrs.
Because back in the day 1000 was a TON, nowadays it’s just another weak, minor flezz Sink for your scoops. |

You don’t get scoops with 1000 anymore, only 10,000 or higher.
I would consider raising the reward for martyring.. I didn’t think anyone actually did that. Log in to see images! |

Because it’s not worth it for one scoop. Circular logic FTW.
You’re giving up 3 forums. That’s potentially 9 lemon scoops, potentially 3*8 vanilla for a solo player, and resets your Pistachio. I’d think 10-15 scoops wouldn’t be out of line.

Yeah, not to mention it cuts Flezz income.

At least 5 scoops would be fair I think, just don’t make it too much |

I can’t see a time when i’ll ever actually martyr myself for scoops, but for those who actually would, the reward should be more appropriate for what they’re giving up. 10 (or more) scoops sounds right, limited to one reward per day. |

Maybe 8 is a nice round number. That way with 12 visits you could get 24 scoops.. I mean at the very least they are guaranteed. VS solo vanilla which has a POTENTIAL for 72.. or lemon with a POTENTIAL for 36. The difference is you can get solo vanilla, lemon and pistachio all together.. so you’d have to give up all those to get your pathetic 24 (bumuming you’d get 8 scoops for a 3 martys).
I’m thinking 8 Log in to see images! |

It kind of makes sense that beating a forum gets you a better reward than failing to beat it. I don’t see why the two should be balanced. |

We’re not looking for balance. We’re looking for motivation. The numbers being discussed as a reward for suiciding in 3 forums are significantly lower than the reward for beating those 3 forums. |

It does make sense to have rewards for contradictory goals, so I don’t see why it couldn’t even go a little higher. You’re sacrificing a number of things for those scoops (other scoop flavas, flezz, cred, moar parts, job points, forum visits – yes, for the forum visit peen)
And the peen is definitely a good idea, again for the contradictory goals since it runs counter to a number of other peen :nods:
It’d also be something for a relatively inactive player to do, if they want some quick scoops on an alt to screw someone over in dom. |

for newbies this could actually be a viable way to earn scoop.
if you remove the 10 scoop cap that is.
maybe only apply the cap to gamble scoops, but remove the cap for martyr.
there’s already the visits limit anyway it’s not necessary to cap martyr scoops.
also like I said I actually did this when I was grinding geronimo. Because, I might as well do that, you know, since death was certain. |
