Happy Meeple community / Re: Bad news - Good news

« on: 22/11/24, 01:17am »

I'm really sad now. It's a loss.
BGA is good, but often annoying because of some players.
Happy Meeples was a real home for me to relax.
And I'm going to lose it now.
I know that running the system and the servers costs money.
But if there was a way to just play, even without any administration - that would be great.
And it would be nice to see the other games again, all of them.
Raging Bulls was the one I played the most.
What will happen to me?
Central Europe and France were the two champions in this game.
How can we forget all of this?

Anyway, the chat is NOT a playground.
Part of the respect shown to the other players is that you don’t fill the chat full of rubbish.
If you have any problems with the posts there, please let any admin know.

Prohibition may seem like an exaggeration to you, but believe me please, it’s very tiring to keep clean the chat.
I am sure, that no admin feel any happiness about banning.

Raging Bulls / Game modification

« on: 24/06/20, 12:17am »

Game modification

In Raging Bulls, we roll 3 dice.
Then we draw a line on the table between two selected values ​​and the third value is placed on the recycled table.

When drawing a line between a value that has already been used and another value, two identical + the other values ​​are required. One of the two identical values ​​is then uploaded to the recycled board.

Both recycling are legitimate and logical.

But what happens if we throw three values ​​that we prefer to throw away? Why these dropped values ​​are not recycled?

Sometimes, up to three times in a row, we roll dice with unusable values ​​on a perfectly good board. Sometimes two rolls give the same three values.

These cases are too random and risky.
 
I don’t know how much the change would affect the course of the game. But maybe it would be worth a try.

Anyway it can easily be that the game in its existing form is the most exciting.

Rankings, meeples and achievements / Permanent meeples or badges - "once a king, always a king"

Permanent meeples or badges

I think the existing meeple signs are hilarious and great.
But what if we added permanent meeples to the existing meeple list?
These would not follow the player’s current score, but it would be enough to get them once and from then the player would own them.

In order, I would suggest the following:
- in the top 100
- in the top 20
- top 10, top 9, top 8, ...., top 3, top 2
- No. 1 = the king of that game. 

These permanent badges can be meeples or tokens attached to the player's display name.

What would all this be good for?
What would it improves on the system?

The feature of the ELO score system is that the higher the score, the harder it is to keep it.
(The ELO score system is the invention of Árpád Élő, an USA professor who has a real Hungarian mind, name and ancestors)

With this little invention, the saying would be true: "once a king, always a king".

So it would be much more worthwhile to fight for more upscale rankings.

The team list (aka regions) is far better now, than it was before.
Thank you !

Do you need more admins to moderate the chat?
I would be happy to help the site.
