Okay, so…

INCIT

FORUMBUILDR

DOM

IDC

RPG

These seem to be the major niches of the game. People seem to be falling into one+ of these categories as far as “Why I play the game”

EPISODES/PWNING

KLANS

FLAMEBATE

These seem to be means for playing inside of the niches.

What am I missing?

In fairness I think you’re over-analyzing. Seems to me that et, jb and bingebot mostly just come up with features they like, implement them, and see how things turn out.

yeah, and most of the features they implement are not really connected to each other, like incit could easily be on a totally different website Log in to see images!

Ah. This makes it very clear, ty Inconnu and Baroness for that perspective. That was all I needed. Fortunato…yeah, I know, I’m overanalyzing, but I just needed this equation analysis male reproductive organsmacked across my face for clarity.

Guess I need to start working on Dom. I’ll do that tonight (11EST)

If you’re talking “RPG” as in roleplaying a character, then you’ve got a category missing. “Episodes/Pwning” is a niche in itself; that’s why I play. I don’t care about IDC, Incit, Domination, Flamebate, roleplaying…I used to do Forumbuildr but for some reason it doesn’t interest me any more. But I still pwn forums.

Tonight will be a good time to try it as a dry run, since Domn rounds end/begin Wednesday evening.

Best advice is to make sure you’ve got 12 forum visits saved for late Wednesday evening, and as soon as the new round starts, start a solo Vanilla run (making sure not to break any streak you have going). Then as soon as you’ve got as much vanilla as possible, spend some of those Pistachios you just earned and try to get a Switcheroo card. Switcheroo your Vanilla (you should have at least 56+ if you did it right) over to Antifreeze. Then, start gambling via Blackjack ( 10K bets each time) and gamble until you have won 20 times. This earns you +10 AF Scoops, so now you should have at least 66+ AF. Gamble again like that on Thursday & Friday & Saturday. Then, get another Switcheroo card, and switch your approximately 100 AF scoops back over to Vanilla. Make that Solo Vanilla run again, hopefully earning the maximum 72 Vanilla Scoops for using 12 visits. Switch your Vanillas over to AF again, and Gamble on Sunday, Monday & Tuesday. You should now have over 200 AF scoops, and a decent amount of Pistachio & Lemon. If you make decent INCIT & Forumbuildr submissions, you should have a good amount of Chocolate as well, so make sure to do this throughout the week.

Now, leave your AF scoops where they are (unless someone is close behind you on Fave Flavor), and make your last Vanilla Run. You should end up with at least 40 scoops, even if you have a crappy run.

Spend scoops from your non-Fave Flavors to buy as many Shield cards as you can, and activate them. Try to keep your Minimum Scoops as high as possible (for low level brackets, 15-20 should be enough)

That’s your down & dirty Dom crash course. Your mileage may vary.
