Re: Survey Fox and Ravens Send a noteboard - 19/06/2011 06:40:42 PM
If this is still relevant, i forgot to do this survey.

Survey

1. Do you favor rigid deadlines, semi-flexible but announced deadlines, post-slump activated deadlines, no deadlines, or something else?


semi-flexible and post-slump.

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


Smaller.

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?


Lately, we've been at a good number. I hate seeing games with no either 1 vanilla or no vanillas. It just gets too complicated.

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


No jester.

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


Generally, I don't like them. I dislike mod interference generally because they know the roles and could potentially tilt the scales. If there is a major post slump, it can be useful but only then. If it interrupts conversations or how the game is flowing, it could be bad :(.

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?


We need to have on-board warnings for inactivity and keep a better record. I don't often log in to RAFO so I generally wouldn't see NBs. The set we're at right now is good.

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.
Go Hokies!

CS/CpE. Yay engineering!

Oh good. Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 12:08:29 AM 844 Views
Hmm. Meant to reply to the original post. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 12:09:27 AM 488 Views
I'm not objecting, just wondering what the hey you're talking about beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 03:17:48 AM 1002 Views
I think Isaac was suspiciously unwilling to lynch Stephen. Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 04:53:43 AM 973 Views
Well, the good news is that we seem to be narrowing it down quickly beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 05:03:32 AM 873 Views
I pretty much agree. Darth_Katie - 11/06/2011 06:11:07 AM 859 Views

Plausible. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2011 06:15:47 AM 899 Views
How did I through ? under the bus? (and using punctuation after the word "bus" doesn't count) Gher - 11/06/2011 04:19:43 AM 999 Views
Maybe not "threw," but it could have been a nudge beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 04:46:30 AM 998 Views
Which would have been near suicide for a scummer to do. Hobo - 11/06/2011 07:15:24 AM 838 Views
I think that's what he's suggesting Darth_Katie - 11/06/2011 02:55:18 PM 825 Views
That's exactly what I was suggesting. But again, it seems a bit unlikely beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 03:28:56 PM 870 Views
It's possible Gher - 11/06/2011 06:44:48 PM 991 Views
Re: HA! Hobo - 11/06/2011 07:20:05 AM 1012 Views
Oh, I know a few other people suspected him. beetnemesis - 11/06/2011 03:31:17 PM 837 Views
Isaac and Ranagrande both stood out after Yesterday's lynch Gher - 11/06/2011 04:04:51 AM 876 Views
I'm not a doublevoter, to my knowledge. Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 04:32:43 AM 769 Views
Which you obviously do recall since that's what you linked to 8-. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 04:33:37 AM 600 Views
Excellent way to keep things murky. Publicly ask the Mod why the vote count is off... Gher - 11/06/2011 06:31:14 PM 943 Views
Are you suggesting that I'm a scum doublevoter? Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 07:57:35 PM 880 Views
No, I'm not. Gher - 13/06/2011 06:20:48 PM 894 Views
Yeah, I noticed that too. Darth_Katie - 11/06/2011 06:14:14 AM 809 Views
It's me. Hobo - 11/06/2011 07:12:05 AM 882 Views
Except that you didn't have a vote on Darth_Katie. Fanatic-Templar - 11/06/2011 05:40:55 PM 814 Views
Mod wouldn't want to admit he made a mistake? Hobo - 11/06/2011 10:35:07 PM 987 Views
EBWOP Hobo - 11/06/2011 10:39:09 PM 910 Views
There's nothing to my knowledge. *NM* Darth_Katie - 12/06/2011 09:31:32 AM 579 Views
I probably made a mistake. Kronin al'Sulc - 12/06/2011 06:34:29 PM 913 Views
Alright. Gher - 13/06/2011 06:22:52 PM 982 Views
Yeah, I got RB'd last Night Darth_Katie - 11/06/2011 06:30:22 AM 928 Views
So, time to check in again Stephen - 12/06/2011 05:58:41 PM 933 Views
Do you have any comments on our current thoughts? Darth_Katie - 14/06/2011 12:11:10 PM 898 Views
Yeah Stephen - 14/06/2011 01:53:53 PM 918 Views
Bulletproof's another scum favourite claim. Fanatic-Templar - 14/06/2011 06:44:29 PM 892 Views
Bulletproof, really? Gher - 14/06/2011 08:46:00 PM 1049 Views
Myrole message explicitly states that I can't be NK'ed *NM* Stephen - 14/06/2011 09:32:19 PM 614 Views
Hmm. Darth_Katie - 14/06/2011 09:43:40 PM 905 Views
Pretty much the whole scarcity of his role Stephen - 14/06/2011 10:24:44 PM 922 Views
Semi-BP thing? One-shot BP is not that unusual. *NM* Gher - 14/06/2011 11:12:57 PM 598 Views
Errr... you can talk you way out of a NK? That seems odd beetnemesis - 15/06/2011 01:11:03 AM 806 Views
Yes, I can. Stephen - 15/06/2011 01:44:06 PM 837 Views
If I may quote Shakespeare: beetnemesis - 16/06/2011 03:23:22 PM 933 Views
It's not an OMGUS when you're obviously scum Stephen - 16/06/2011 05:01:24 PM 874 Views
So... Stephen, Gher, Hobo or ranagrande? beetnemesis - 12/06/2011 08:01:21 PM 853 Views
Re: So... Stephen, Gher, Hobo or beetnemesis? ranagrande - 13/06/2011 09:49:06 PM 957 Views
