Survey Isaac Send a noteboard - 17/06/2011 04:46:06 PM
Survey
1. Do you favor rigid deadlines, semi-flexible but announced deadlines, post-slump activated deadlines, no deadlines, or something else?

2. Do you want to see clues play a bigger or smaller role in games?

3. How about roles? Have we had too many, too few, just right? Do you like to see role variants in play or would you like to see a bit less experimentation with that?

4. Any roles you feel we see too much of, or not enough of, or that you absolutely despise?

5. How about sub-plots, midgame ‘Events’ or micro-games, do they interfere with or enhance the game?

6. How about inactivity? Of the various options, from modkill to substitution, which do you prefer, and should we be ramping up enforcement or dialing it down? How many days is too many or too few, and should prior activity factor into it?

Keep in mind none of this is binding on any other mod, or me for that matter, I’m just trying to check which way the winds blowing while my setup has some flexibility, you can comment generally or specifically. Incidentally I’m currently favoring two deadline methods, the ‘Countdown’ and “Bodycount” methods. The former just starts with say 14 days for a day and drops 1 day for each subsequent game Day, so day 2 would be 13 days long, 3 12 days, etc, as maximums only of course. Bodycount Method just makes days max out in duration equal to the current number of surviving players, so come day 6 with 5 players left there’s only 5 days to lynch someone.

Oh good. - 11/06/2011 12:08:29 AM 979 Views
Hmm. Meant to reply to the original post. *NM* - 11/06/2011 12:09:27 AM 551 Views
I'm not objecting, just wondering what the hey you're talking about - 11/06/2011 03:17:48 AM 1141 Views
I think Isaac was suspiciously unwilling to lynch Stephen. - 11/06/2011 04:53:43 AM 1123 Views
Well, the good news is that we seem to be narrowing it down quickly - 11/06/2011 05:03:32 AM 1012 Views
I pretty much agree. - 11/06/2011 06:11:07 AM 1019 Views
I was surprised. - 13/06/2011 09:59:14 PM 1063 Views
Hah. - 13/06/2011 10:40:26 PM 870 Views
Isn't that always the case? *NM* - 13/06/2011 11:10:43 PM 568 Views
Plausible. - 14/06/2011 06:15:47 AM 1041 Views
How did I through ? under the bus? (and using punctuation after the word "bus" doesn't count) - 11/06/2011 04:19:43 AM 1155 Views
Maybe not "threw," but it could have been a nudge - 11/06/2011 04:46:30 AM 1129 Views
Which would have been near suicide for a scummer to do. - 11/06/2011 07:15:24 AM 963 Views
I think that's what he's suggesting - 11/06/2011 02:55:18 PM 956 Views
That's exactly what I was suggesting. But again, it seems a bit unlikely - 11/06/2011 03:28:56 PM 1002 Views
It's possible - 11/06/2011 06:44:48 PM 1135 Views
Re: HA! - 11/06/2011 07:20:05 AM 1149 Views
Oh, I know a few other people suspected him. - 11/06/2011 03:31:17 PM 961 Views
Isaac and Ranagrande both stood out after Yesterday's lynch - 11/06/2011 04:04:51 AM 1003 Views
I'm not a doublevoter, to my knowledge. - 11/06/2011 04:32:43 AM 899 Views
Which you obviously do recall since that's what you linked to 8-. *NM* - 11/06/2011 04:33:37 AM 671 Views
Excellent way to keep things murky. Publicly ask the Mod why the vote count is off... - 11/06/2011 06:31:14 PM 1087 Views
Are you suggesting that I'm a scum doublevoter? - 11/06/2011 07:57:35 PM 1029 Views
No, I'm not. - 13/06/2011 06:20:48 PM 1033 Views
Yeah, I noticed that too. - 11/06/2011 06:14:14 AM 934 Views
It's me. - 11/06/2011 07:12:05 AM 1007 Views
Except that you didn't have a vote on Darth_Katie. - 11/06/2011 05:40:55 PM 949 Views
Mod wouldn't want to admit he made a mistake? - 11/06/2011 10:35:07 PM 1132 Views
EBWOP - 11/06/2011 10:39:09 PM 1040 Views
There's nothing to my knowledge. *NM* - 12/06/2011 09:31:32 AM 645 Views
I probably made a mistake. - 12/06/2011 06:34:29 PM 1031 Views
Alright. - 13/06/2011 06:22:52 PM 1123 Views

Do you have any comments on our current thoughts? - 14/06/2011 12:11:10 PM 1022 Views
Yeah - 14/06/2011 01:53:53 PM 1055 Views
Bulletproof's another scum favourite claim. - 14/06/2011 06:44:29 PM 1024 Views
Bulletproof, really? - 14/06/2011 08:46:00 PM 1214 Views
Myrole message explicitly states that I can't be NK'ed *NM* - 14/06/2011 09:32:19 PM 680 Views
Hmm. - 14/06/2011 09:43:40 PM 1043 Views
Pretty much the whole scarcity of his role - 14/06/2011 10:24:44 PM 1064 Views
Semi-BP thing? One-shot BP is not that unusual. *NM* - 14/06/2011 11:12:57 PM 669 Views
Errr... you can talk you way out of a NK? That seems odd - 15/06/2011 01:11:03 AM 939 Views
Yes, I can. - 15/06/2011 01:44:06 PM 997 Views
If I may quote Shakespeare: - 16/06/2011 03:23:22 PM 1070 Views
It's not an OMGUS when you're obviously scum - 16/06/2011 05:01:24 PM 1011 Views
So... Stephen, Gher, Hobo or ranagrande? - 12/06/2011 08:01:21 PM 987 Views
Re: So... Stephen, Gher, Hobo or beetnemesis? - 13/06/2011 09:49:06 PM 1121 Views
That does sound like a pretty cool scum plan - 13/06/2011 10:47:17 PM 963 Views

As long as you don't start sending out death threats in the middle of the night. *NM* - 22/06/2011 05:17:53 AM 535 Views
No one else has voted for Dresden Files; I'm almost beyond threats! - 22/06/2011 05:44:42 AM 941 Views
I'm actually not familiar with any of Isaac's suggestions, embarassingly . - 22/06/2011 06:12:22 AM 949 Views
Me either - 22/06/2011 01:14:20 PM 956 Views

Don't even joke about that kind of thing *NM* - 23/06/2011 06:36:15 AM 666 Views
It is definitely a 'watch it before you read it' series - 23/06/2011 07:21:41 AM 974 Views
Probably the same way I feel about the LotR movies. - 23/06/2011 11:45:46 PM 966 Views
