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!

Hmm. Meant to reply to the original post. *NM* - 11/06/2011 12:09:27 AM 455 Views
I'm not objecting, just wondering what the hey you're talking about - 11/06/2011 03:17:48 AM 919 Views
I think Isaac was suspiciously unwilling to lynch Stephen. - 11/06/2011 04:53:43 AM 902 Views
Well, the good news is that we seem to be narrowing it down quickly - 11/06/2011 05:03:32 AM 801 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 929 Views
Maybe not "threw," but it could have been a nudge - 11/06/2011 04:46:30 AM 922 Views
Which would have been near suicide for a scummer to do. - 11/06/2011 07:15:24 AM 767 Views
I think that's what he's suggesting - 11/06/2011 02:55:18 PM 783 Views
That's exactly what I was suggesting. But again, it seems a bit unlikely - 11/06/2011 03:28:56 PM 789 Views
It's possible - 11/06/2011 06:44:48 PM 923 Views
Re: HA! - 11/06/2011 07:20:05 AM 924 Views
Oh, I know a few other people suspected him. - 11/06/2011 03:31:17 PM 769 Views

Are you suggesting that I'm a scum doublevoter? - 11/06/2011 07:57:35 PM 800 Views
No, I'm not. - 13/06/2011 06:20:48 PM 822 Views

Mod wouldn't want to admit he made a mistake? - 11/06/2011 10:35:07 PM 908 Views
