POLL RESULTS & RULE UPDATES Posted on June 21, 2018 at 09:12:32 PM by Chaos
Hi everyone! Apologies for the delay in the results of the recent opinion poll, as you know this is a very busy time of year for many of us, but here are the results and discussion of the poll and the rule clarifications that will be made as a result.
1) Map
You told us that you were largely in favour of having a map as long as it was loosely defined, still allowing for creative freedom, and we consulted you about any details we were going to define with the map. This is something Shiva and I will discuss further and try to come up with a plan for, which we will update you on and keep you involved in.
2) Territory Names
Mostly everyone agreed that it was simpler to keep the names of the territories as they are, although of course characters are welcome to describe them as they wish.
3) Featured Player/Character
The majority of you said that you were fine with the current frequency of player and character nominations. However, in busier periods, as some of you suggested, we will consider increasing the frequency of these events if activity picks up and there are many options to choose from.
4) Random Events
Many of you said that you liked the random events, and while you didn’t necessarily need a reward or more events to participate, it was suggested that we could space the events more randomly, post multiple ones at a time, or focus them on communal boards where more characters are likely to run into them. We are going to take these ideas into account next time we post an event, so keep an eye out for that.
5) Featured Player/Character Prizes
Most of you also agreed it would be fun and fair to give the winners of the featured player/character nominations the option to choose a small perk as a reward. We will implement this from the next result, and provide a list of the perks to choose from.
6) Battle Replies
The majority of you thought that the current limit for battle replies was fine at 4 days, so we will keep this rule as it is for now. Players are, of course, welcome to agree reasonable extensions between themselves if needed.
7) Site Blurb
Most of you thought that a site blurb might be helpful, as long as it didn’t take away from player’s freedom in creating your own stories. Shiva and I will look into writing a brief blurb up soon and adding it on to our usual advertisement.
8) Multi-Lead Herds
Following everyone's advice and opinions we have decided that multi-lead herds will be limited to a maximum of 3 co-leads that can have leadership powers. The limit for battles will be set per herd rather than per individual leader, and for now we will be keeping the limit at 1 attack and defence battle per season for each herd, as it stands now. However, we will increase this limit (for both multi-lead herds and single-lead herds) in the future if we start to see more battling and multi-lead herds.
Thank you once again everyone for your help, and we hope that you will all enjoy these changes. Replies: There have been no replies.
