Solo Vanilla
Scoop count will equal the number of forums held, beginning with 4.
Perfect solo run: 4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12=72 – the same as a perfect solo raid in the current environment. If the player drops back down to 4 (for instance) then goes back to 5 and continues on as planned, the scoop count would reflect 4+5+5+6+7+8+9+10+11
Klan Raids
1) Alts are now allowed in a raid (although the maximum number of characters/alts in a raid remains at 13)
2) Scoop counts:
– Instead of only one vanilla for each member when exactly 12 forums pwned: Each member receives one vanilla for each count of forums held above 11, but only once. Example: – 12 pwned = +1 scoop, 13 pwned = +1 scoop, 13 pwned = 0, 14 pwned = +1
3) Participants must have 12 visits available in order to join the raid.
4) Remaining visits at raid end will be wiped for all participants so they can’t double dip into solo scoops. (This occurs regardless of how the player leaves the raid. Being kicked, leaving the raid or the raid ending naturally will all result in lost visits.)
5) Removed 60 hours between raids limit. (The 12 visit requirement will prevent people from joining raids every day just to earn scoops without contributing.)
6) All solo vanilla scoops are disabled during a klan raid. Not just lowered like they are right now.
(As of 6/10/10, there is a bug that if forums are pwned too closely together, it may miss awarding a vanilla scoop. This is being worked on.)
Pistachio
Pistachio scoops will be given as “normal” up to a streak of 56 forums pwned. With 60, your pistachio award will begin at 1 scoop and follow the same award numbers as if you had zero forums in your streak.
Antifreeze
No change
Chocolate
No change
Lemon
The algorithm used to determine fans needed for scoops has been leveled out some. It should no longer be a “three scoops or nothing” scenario, nor should it guarantee three scoops on every run.
Season Length
Seasons will be standardized at 20 weeks.

At this time, this should be accurate. If anything changes between now and then, we’ll let you know.
That said, if you have any questions, ask them here. Log in to see images! |

So, correct me if I’m wrong – it’s like 145 (12*12+1) vanilla for every participant in a 13-player perfect raid, right? |

Is the “hold 13 forums by grabbing one before rollover” issue going to be fixed or will raiders be able to capitalize on that?
Come to think of it, will forums held before the raid count towards this total (theoretically allowing up to 4 extra per raider)?
If this question doesn’t make sense, keep in mind it comes from a non-raider. |

Inconnu Posted:
For a perfect raid, that looks about right.
MC Banhammer Posted:
Still a possibility, afaik.
MC Banhammer Posted:
That’s been tested on the beta server and they do not count toward the raid. Only forums pwned while the raid is active will count.

I don’t want this to be read in the wrong way. I understand how those things happened. You know, it wasn’t brought up by anyone in either the Brainfreeze or Directors cartel. It is easy to understand why those people were ignored. |

I liked things better before you guys banned me and I was uninterested in Forumwars. |

I think spending some time here is helping me become uninterested again. There is nothing like being here to make me not want to be here. |

what happens if you pwn/hold forums at rollover? can you feasibly get up to 16 vanilla? |

so really with that tactic you could have 130 as solo but if everyone did that tactic in a klan raid you could get 193? |

While rollover raids are the best way to get the most scoops (12, 16, 12) it can’t be done at the last minute of play and doing them twice puts you right in bumhole range long before Dom end and only allows you a maximum of 8 Visits for dom end. Combined with a bunch of European players doing raids then, it might actually be a tricky maneuver to pull off properly. |

That and pistachio will change. It caps at a much lower rate, but could conceivably loop indefinitely. Makes streaks not matter as much as they do currently. |
