BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

Makes me not want to lay eggs.

DW, my next proposal will be about that along other stuff.

I was tempted to just vote against this, but in the spirit of not being a dick I will simply share my thoughts for the time being:

- I don’t want winning to become about laying eggs all over the place.
- It’s very easy to become the father of an egg, it just takes one nutrient.  It’s much harder to be the mother and with this there is no incentive.
- I’ll automatically vote against any proposal with the phrase “alpha male” in it, so help me god.

In 5 hours and 20 minutes I will be back to vote against this proposal.

Ah, hrm. With two people wanting eggs to have more merit, I’ll adjust this. No “next proposal” with egg stuff in it then, it will be included into this instead. Also, ty for the input.

Editting…

It’s not so much that eggs need more merit, but this proposal decreases the value of eggs. Why should you ever lay eggs if you’re practically giving victory to other players, and it costs you all four of your nutrients to do it!

Alright, ready to go again.

I still don’t like it.  Thank you for taking “alpha male” out, though, I will not feel inclined to remove myself from the game if it passes.

Well, OK. It still has the egg laying thing though, which I think is a thematically appropriate way to win (just personal preference, really). If not egg-laying, what do you think would be a good way to win?

I’m sure if someone thinks of another good way to win, they’ll make a proposal for it.

I was actually thinking it should be something that can only be done when the creature is Fulfilled.  I still want to flesh out satisfaction a bit, but I need to wait for a proposal slot to open up.  Admins need to get on it, there are two proposals that can be adminned, and Bookkeeping will be in the same boat in an hour.

Time for more admins to apply?

Ah, that could be cool. Perhaps for that Fulfilled-required action we could have a special location that you can “climb” and attempt to reach the top, finally reaching out of the dark waters. Tossing ideas, really.

I’m in favor of something like this, but I really want to make finishing the nymph both more expensive and not grant points the entire time. It will be really hard to change once people get serious enough about scoring proto-nymphs.

as per general feeling, seems not quite right.
