TWC Rules, Policies, Etc.

Re: TWC Rules, Policies, Etc.

how about this:

for the next 5 games after the current one, if humans dont vote they'll be killed themselves, and if wolves dont vote they'll be cardflipped

Re: TWC Rules, Policies, Etc.

I completely agree. The ****ty turnout of the games recently is largely due to inactivity. I'd say after three games of being killed for inactivity, you get blacklisted for a while.

I love this idea. Serves them right for not even getting on for 2 minutes just to cast a vote. Douches.

Re: TWC Rules, Policies, Etc.

If this was a private forum, I'd kick out several people who basically don't deserve to play after being inactive multiple times throughout multiple games.

Personally, after this game (and thanks to public outcry) I think we need to issue out some bans to several people. I can come up with at least four people right off the top of my head.

I played for like the first 50 games. I do not recognize your name.

Also, please elaborate.

Thunder started playing shortly after I did afro. He's probably referring to the old group we used to have of

This core group was after your time, but it actually contained a bunch of high-tier players with good quality rational reasoning skills. Far away and above better then the group we have running now. Most of those players could function self sufficiently, while sadly most of our current database cannot. Don't get me wrong, theres a few players that can reach that echelon with some development, but they're not there yet, nor will they develop further unless the quality of these games improve.

Getting a phantom on purpose is bull****, is a mean-ass tactic, and is detrimental to the game.

As I recall, this tactic was sometimes abused in the past to appear human. A wolf would "forget" to vote, because "no wolf in their right mind would make themselves easier to be lynched". I seem to recall LD doing this. Then laughing his head off in postgame for people actually buying this tactic.

But that's bull****. People who get phantoms are failures to the spirit game, intentional or not.

ps manti, private forum or not, it's already ruled by an appointed senate. They can decide on things like game bans and rules for within the forum and judgments on game violations. Players being banned from signups should work the same way that TGB bans worked. It's not an official forum implementation, but you'd be damned if you'd break the decided upon actions of the ruling class. Moreover, this isn't a PUBLIC forum either. Not just anyone can post in the game threads. We limit who is allowed to post in the game threads, so disallowing certain persons from even playing in the first place is a logical next step of this.

not only that, but most of the people you would remember afro were still around for a little while before they all quit too.

I think the first jTWG i played in was somewhere around when TWG XL or close to that was going on. Iggy, DBP, fojar, stoic, etc were still around when i moved into TWG.

All that aside, I agree with what most people are saying in here. My work schedule right now is insane so I dont really have the time to make a full post with everything I have to say, but thats Marine Corps life for you sometimes. Ill try to be a little more thorough when I have the time.

I'll enforce TWG-wide forum bans provided the decision to ban is both fair and transparantly applied.

Re: TWC Rules, Policies, Etc.

I'm applying a 1 game TWG Probationary period to Lumphoboextreme for inactivity in the RPS jTWG.

I understand playing UTR, but from my understanding he joined, took up a necessary role and never participated. In fact his participation was so bad, he ended up being a detriment to his own team.

If TWG players want me to recind this for the next game, get 4 votes, and I'll remove the game ban

Thank you manti.

bump cuz I miss everybody mentioned here ): remember that one time tass played with us? now *****s don't even know who he was.

anyway what's up with this? is there still a council? is there a way to bring any of these people back? why are people playing full games without aims/ IMs? is there a line between our junior and senior games anymore?

no really tho

Re: TWC Rules, Policies, Etc.

The council is pretty much just me at this point. What i've been doing is changing/editing a rule or making a ban and asking the TWG players if they agree. In the case that they don't agree They'd need to reach something ilke 4 or 5 votes for me to not implement the change/ban.

There isn't really a difference between TWG and jTWG at this point. we only have enough players to situate one game at a time, so TWG/jTWG is mainly being decided by difficulty of the game.

People are being allowed to play full games without AIMs currently because, once again, our playerbase is incredibly small. We can't afford to turn people away because they don't have AIMs or else we won't have games (hey that rhymed). TWG is essentially a buyers market currently.

[travman301]

Re: TWC Rules, Policies, Etc.

There seems to be some confusion on whether the new games being hosted are classified as TWGs or jTWGs.

As far as I am concerned every game played henceforth is a TWG. The difference comes when we have two sets of games going (one for new players, and one for more experienced players). Seeing has how we barely have the player base to support one set of games, there really isn't the need for jTWGs anymore.

So tl;dr:
We don't have enough players for jTWGs. TWGs can be simple and not be jTWGs. Don't call your games jTWGs anymore.

Re: TWC Rules, Policies, Etc.

I included Gun and Syhto on the temporary ban list. It's a 1 game ban for activity.

If people find this unfair/unwarrented, give me a reason and accumulate 5 votes from people who play TWG and I will forego the ban.
