I’ve compiled a list of the posts that I could find that people have made on this topic. I’ve listed them in chronological order. Please let me know via Tubmail if you find a post on another thread that should be quoted here. (Please don’t post about it in the thread, it would just add clutter.)

I’m personally very excited about the proposed idea of multi-klan domination brackets. It’s especially cool now since it would eliminate the “broken” effect of Klans that can organize vanilla scoop raids crushing single players trying to make it in Domination. Personally, despite the fact that I run one of these said klans, it’s disheartening to see people complain that they don’t have a chance anymore.

...it would be a shame to see our organization go to waste if the klanwide vanilla system is nixed entirely. Likewise, playing on an individual level is going to suck when you have two or three klans warring over Max Scoops and Fave Flava.

Ideally, I’d rather see Klan level Domination Warz that were separate from the Individual level Domination Rounds.

Domination needs to be split up as Klan-Vs-Klan and player-vs-player. You shouldn’t be able to get scoops for something someone else did in PVP.

I support splitting Domination into Klan and Single-Player sections.

I agree with that part, too!

I’ll repeat a popular suggestion here:

Separate Domination brackets for Klans and individual players. Either not count the Klan-acquired Vanilla scoops in the individual bracket and keep things otherwise how they are, or alternatively, change it so that there are one or two Klan brackets which contains all of the clans in the game. Klans would have to work together to get an entirely new set of flavored scoops.

– My favorite option would simply be to allow players to choose whether they wanted to play Domination solo or in klan. Click a bumon on your profile and poof it is done. Changing your mind could cost a Brownie point and any change would take place at the start of the next round of Domination. Solo players could still be in a klan, but would not need to play Domination with the klan. (I would personally love this, since I’m really not hugely interested in working out how to manage five way ties.)

I don’t really care how it gets fixed, but I’m against the idea that there’s “klan” and “no klan” Domination brackets, insofar as I’m part of a clan, but it’s not a competitive one, more of just “here are some jerks who post on a particular site.” Of course, that adds another wrinkle of “competitive” and “noncompetitive” clans, but I figure the admin are smart enough to figure something out.

The idea I submitted for separating Domination into Klan & Personal didn’t meant that a Klan had to choose whether they were Competing or Non-Competing, but simply that each flavor of scoop could be acquire either through Personal Efforts or Klan Efforts, and that the Personal Scoops counted for the Domination rounds that we are currently familiar with, and the Klan Scoops (Or Klan Skoops) would count for the Klan-Level Domination. In Klan Domination, entire Klans compete against each other. FoL versus SotQR versus FF versus Facepunch. In this situation, for example, the Vanilla Rush only adds to the Klan Dom round, not the individual player. The Klan Admin is in charge of how to use the Skoops and decides which type of trophy to go after, or when to buy Dom Cards, etc. Individual players could still earn Personal Scoops if they contribute to their Klan, but there would be a cap on that so it wouldn’t unbalance regular Dom Rounds.

Each of the other flavors that currently only generates personal scoops could be modified so that there would be a way to add scoops to the Klan total. For example, if a player gets at least 1 Lemon Scoop for 4 consecutive forum visits, then his Klan gets 3 Lemon Skoops. If he does 8 in a row, his Klan gets another 3 Lemon Skoops, and so on. Or something to that effect. Perhaps if Klan members speedrun forums in a row, say, the last 15 forum visits by a single Klan all earned Lemon Scoops, then the Klan earns a certain number of Lemon Skoops.

The basis of the idea is there, and I think by separating Personal Scoops & Klan Skoops, this would solve a lot of issues. It also allows for more dynamics on both levels. If an individual player is losing badly on their Personal Domination, they can shift focus and try to help the Klan. Perhaps the Admins of winning Klans can grant certain awards to top performers, sort of a loyalty bonus.

I think this opens a better way to structure the Domination part of the game.

I think we’re on to something here, Corion. We should see what ET and the others think about the general idea, and how easy/difficult it would be to implement. I’ve had a few more ideas since my last post on the topic, but it sort of depends on how CZ wants to implement it.

Well, I guess we just have to wait for CZ to recognize our genius and make us highly-paid interns, Corion…

Or more likely, ninja our ideas and claim they were ‘in development’ for months. Log in to see images!

I personally love the idea; since klanmembers tend to support each other and individualists tend to kill each other, it stands to reason they should be in separate categories.
