[12:40:29] ~Litt♥Eleven: yep let's work on points then
2
[12:40:59] @aQrator: I think it should be higher than perfect score
3
[12:41:02] @aQrator: But that's my hunch
4
[12:41:15] @aQrator: not a lot, but a little
5
[12:41:50] ~Litt♥Eleven: yeah
6
[12:42:19] @aQrator: The time you have to take extra to perfect score is lower than the time to answer an additional, hard question. I think (assuming you make the last one deliberately harder)
7
[12:43:09] ~sparky✿child: i'd love for the bonus points to scale with your place
8
[12:43:16] @aQrator: It def should
9
[12:43:23] @aQrator: Something like
10
[12:43:37] ~sparky✿child: i'd love "double points"
11
[12:43:47] @aQrator: Double points seems a bit excessive tho
12
[12:43:58] ~sparky✿child: it makes gambling first place actually worth it
13
[12:44:08] ~Litt♥Eleven: my issue with points is people agreeing to collaborate and all do q4
14
[12:44:29] @aQrator: First place gets 30 w/o, second gets 50 with
15
[12:44:32] @aQrator: I was thinking along the lines of 12-10-8-6-5-5 and 2
16
[12:44:52] @aQrator: A more steep version of Perfect Score's scheme
17
[12:44:55] ~sparky✿child: what if we limit the bonus points to people who finish all 4 and still place in the top 3
18
[12:45:04] ~sparky✿child: that way we can encourage betrayal
19
[12:45:30] ~sparky✿child: and discourage collaboration
20
[12:45:40] @aQrator: That sounds like an intruiging mindgame, but one people will very sparsely play, probably
21
[12:45:44] ~sparky✿child: because you could lie and just take the base score and leave your "ally" with no bonus and a low base score
22
[12:45:46] ~Litt♥Eleven: yeah but people don't have an incentive to do the last q if they're outside, again
23
[12:45:56] ~Litt♥Eleven: we could drop points off to simulate that
24
[12:46:07] ~sparky✿child: 12/8/4/2/2/2/2/2/2
25
[12:46:39] ~sparky✿child: there's still a point of doing it afterwards but like
26
[12:46:49] ~sparky✿child: choosing to not do Q4 should have some merit
27
[12:46:59] @aQrator: Perfect score is 10-8-5-5-5-5-2...
28
[12:47:05] ~Litt♥Eleven: yeah solid 30 points
29
[12:47:16] ~sparky✿child: 12/6/3/2 and 2 afterwards
30
[12:47:21] ~sparky✿child: finishing 2nd with 4 earns 31
31
[12:47:26] ~sparky✿child: 1 point more than 1st without bonus
32
[12:47:38] ~sparky✿child: and 3rd is down to 25, which is 2 less than 2nd without bonus
33
[12:47:55] @aQrator: I think it should be a bigger difference, to actually incentivise going for it
34
[12:48:21] @aQrator: If you think you got first if you skip, but can do the fourth question to get second or maybe third
35
[12:48:22] ~sparky✿child: i just want a steeper drop off in points so choosing to do 4 isnt ALWAYS the best choice
36
[12:48:25] @aQrator: you're not going to risk it
37
[12:48:33] ~sparky✿child: if you're not punished slightly for going for 4 and then doing a bad job at it
38
[12:48:39] ~sparky✿child: then everyone would always do 4
39
[12:48:43] ~sparky✿child: you dont even need to collaborate
40
[12:49:10] @aQrator: I agree you want to make it so that you shouldnt always do 4
41
[12:49:14] ~sparky✿child: because even if someone else does 3, and gets first, doing one more and getting 2nd or 3rd doesnt matter since you're still getting p muc just as much
42
[12:49:31] ~Litt♥Eleven: we could implement it differently for odyssey metas etc
43
[12:49:41] ~Litt♥Eleven: like give flat out 10 to people who get the meta and stuff
44
[12:49:58] ~Litt♥Eleven: just a thought, regardless of values
45
[12:50:10] ~sparky✿child: i'm curious
46
[12:50:14] ~sparky✿child: if we could stack this with team scavs...
47
[12:50:26] @aQrator: no harm in trying
48
[12:50:51] ~sparky✿child: it should work with team scavs
49
[12:50:53] ~sparky✿child: looking at the code
50
[12:51:39] @aQrator: I would assume as much, yea
51
[12:52:44] ~sparky✿child: they use different event flags so it's fine
52
[12:53:06] @111ace111: then the one guy goes full chaos and skips
53
[12:53:27] ~sparky✿child: whole team: "you *****"
54
[12:53:33] @aQrator: lmao
55
[12:53:49] @aQrator: but only when the team is almost done
56
[12:53:52] @111ace111: "no i know we can do it!" "it's too big a risk, im pressing it!" "noooooooo"
57
[12:53:57] ~sparky✿child: or even better
58
[12:54:11] ~sparky✿child: when the team actually GETS the answer
59
[12:54:13] ~sparky✿child: and someone enters skip
60
[12:54:20] ~sparky✿child: people just assume that they got the answer
61
[12:54:22] ~sparky✿child: until the hunt ends
62
[12:54:28] @aQrator: lol
63
[12:54:30] ~sparky✿child: and they're like "who the fuuuuuuuck typed skip"
64
[12:54:31] @aQrator: that's just mean
65
[12:54:50] ~sparky✿child: since skipping only shows the skip message to the person who opted to skip
66
[12:55:01] ~Litt♥Eleven: oh lol
67
[12:55:05] ~sparky✿child: everyone else just sees that their team "completed the hunt"
68
[12:55:19] ~sparky✿child: and assumes that they completed it with the bonus round complete as well
69-
[12:55:23] ~sparky✿child: but little do they know nyahahahahahha
69+
[12:55:23] ~sparky✿child: but little do they know nyahahahahahha
70
[12:58:02] @aQrator: To get back to the scoring: My opinion on it is that trying the question should be worth 1.5 spots in the ranking or so at the top end (assuming you otherwise wouldn't do the q0, so, while I agree on dropping the score steeply, I would drop it from a relatively high point to have it work that way
71
[12:58:06] @aQrator: anyhow I've to go
72
[12:58:10] @aQrator: that's my 2 cents on it
