Large Social Game Queue OLD THREAD

Anons vs. Unanons

[Cybele]

If I'm on the 'Winners' list, it's probably too forgiving.

[Cheery Dog]

The amount of people that would be able to join each tribe is going to be dependent on the newbie population.

[xRECKONERx]

just winners would be easy enough i'd think:

Betch, Bellaphant, Flameaxe, me, BPC, Drench, Shiidaji, Klick, CC, STD, Snakes, Cephrir, xof, Jal

And that's just going back the past 3 years

[xRECKONERx]

do winners versus people who made it to the finals and have never won

[DeathNote]

Designed by losers.

[DeathNote]

DBZA still needs one extra mod with experience if it is to ever push forward.

Let me know!

[Crazy]

do winners versus people who made it to the finals and have never won

I think this might be too limited, although this is a good group of players!

I think nearly anyone that hasn't won a game before could possibly classify as an Underdog, to be honest. Without naming anyone or actually making a list, I bet if I tried to pick the Top 10 players on site, that 8-9 of them would be previous winners.

Or the tribe could just be called something else. "Winners vs. Losers vs. Newbies" has a certain ring to it.

[xRECKONERx]

If I made a list of the people I think are the best Survivor players, I bet only 5/10 would be winner.

HYPOTHETICAL: who would be on each tribe

I don't have enough of a rep yet to be on either tribe :/

[Haschel Cedricson]

Have one of the tribes be people who failed to reach the merge in the majority of their games.

[animorpherv1]

I honestly think Winners vs. Underdogs vs. Newbies would work just fine, so long as "Newbies" was kept to "players with less than Y games of experience".

[KingdomAces]

In that case, I think Y would have to be determined after applications to see what is possible, rather than beforehand.

[animorpherv1]

I figured I'd post the results of the survey here since it's already gotten 20 responses and I'm more than happy with that, but I'll spoiler it because just in case, who knows.

Spoiler: RESULTS

1. Are You Interested In A Non-Anonymous Large Social?

Yes - 17 (85%)
No - 3 (15%)

2. What Kind of Large Social Would You Prefer As A Non-Anonymous Game?

Survivor - 12 (60%)
Big Brother - 6 (30%)
The Mole - 8 (40%)
The Amazing Race - 5 (25%)
Other - 6 (30%)

3. Do You Have Any Interesting Thematic Ideas?

I'm just going to list themes here that I have no plans on using for whatever reason, as well as any "Other" Responses because they're worth discussing.

- Other: The Genius
- Other: Endurance
- Other: Creativity Game (a la Project Runway)
- Other: Gypsy Curse 2

- Theme: Anonymous Someone else would probably be better at this than me as a theme rather than a mechanic.
- Theme: Anime (which I would consider if I watched any, so I'm throwing this one here for everyone).
- Theme: Fantasy Pretty general topic, so I figured it could be thrown for everyone and retain value.
- Theme: Heroes vs. Villains Not that I don't LIKE it, but it's not what I was looking for.
- Theme: Newbies vs Underdogs vs Finalists It's already being discussed here in some format, so I figured why not.
- Theme: "Stuck on MS" Honestly, I love it, but I have no idea what I'd do with it.

- Hilarious Response: I DON'T CARE JUST PLEASE I'M DESPERATE

So I will run a non-anonymous game eventually, but I'm going to sit on a few themes first, as well as see what the results bring to this discussion.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Mole or Genius please god yes.

[Flameaxe]

Mole or Genius please god yes.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Mole or Genius please god yes.

You already know from the mole thread were working on one :p

If there were 3 MS mole games being run at once, I would play in all 3 without a hint of shame or hesitation.

[Ross Perot]

PRE-INS ARE CLOSED FOR #2016!

We'll see you all when signups open on March 9!

[animorpherv1]

Spoiler: Introducing...

A non-anonymous Survivor game for

19

that I have planned! I'm not very far into the planning stages yet, but I am looking for a backup mod (NOT a co-mod) - so if anyone has modly aspirations but no experience, this game would be the game to get your feet wet!

This is also a note ahead of time Skype

WILL

be required! I will not be taking pre-/ins, but anyone who wants to be notified when the game starts should PM (or otherwise notify) me.

[Gale Wing Srock]

Survivor Pirates vs Ninjas is super awesome <3

[animorpherv1]

By the way, the other theme I was toying with from the poll was Steampunk, so if anyone wants that, they can have it.

[xofelf]

Effective immediately, I'm revoking the rules on how limiting how many games a person has their name attached to as a mod. It was originally to cut the queue down a bit, but that's not really something that is necessary anymore. Some comods are good at design, but not day to day details and availability. Others can handle day to day things and forum maintenance or images, but suck at design. So with those things in mind, limiting games you can mod doesn't seem necessary. Queue is still first in list that is ready and rl schedules don't conflict goes. But otherwise, if you wanna help out in multiple places, go bananas. Just try not to commit to more than you can handle.
