Proposal: 62366 tiptop

Timed out. Passes 6-4—Clucky

Adminned at 04 Jun 2020 06:33:57 UTC

Create a new segment with the following values:

  • ID: 14
  • Name: Tiptop
  • Payout: Gain 1 Point
  • Global Effect: Determine the amnesiac with the most points who does not have this segment in their wager, choosing randomly between said amnesiacs if there is a tie. Remove N of their points, where N is the amount of amnesiacs that have this segment in their wager.

Eat the rich.

against CoV, this feels like catch-the-leader overkill alongside Unearned. (This one is a better way to do it, though.)

Okay, I suppose some explanation is necessary. The gains for each person here are minimal. That’s on purpose. It’s not a very useful one to invest in, especially if we can only have a limited number of segments in our wager, as is proposed. But there are some motivations to do so: if you have high points, then you’ll want to put this in so someone else gets screwed; and if you have low points, then you’ll want to put this in so the leader gets screwed and you can eventually rise up. So while it does not net its betters many *points*, there are still some very good reasons to bet on Tiptop.

I think it was clear :) that’s why I voted against.

Some update for how this was enacted:

there was nothing that said this was to be a segment of the wheel. As there is now a distinction between segments of the wheel and spare segments, I think that means its a spare segment.

Also while a spare segment with index 14 would stay 14, a spare segment with id 14 has no index and so gets the default index which in this case was 13
