Proposal: Free Rebuys

Self-killed. Failed by Kevan.

Adminned at 07 Aug 2020 08:36:51 UTC

In “Wagers”, after “Prime a random Spare Segment”, add a new bulletpoint:

Increase everyone’s points by 5

Another attempt to speed up the game.

This feels weirdly niche. How is it speeding the game up, beyond taking us a very small amount closer to the 50-point zone each spin?

Hmm, 2 is pretty small.  I changed it to a higher number, let me know what you think.

against Still feels like an edge case I’m not seeing. The 20-point gap is more of a brake on the game than the 50-point minimum.

I disagree with that statement, but fair enough.

[Jumble] We now have six leading players all within five points of each other! Increasing everyone’s points by 1000 every round wouldn’t do anything to break that pack, except in the sense of providing more currency for the Annoyingness dice. Which if it’s the intention, feels like an uninteresting one (if the game ends on a “who can roll a die in the luckiest way” Annoyingness war rather than all the “who can best decide which Wagers to bet on” stuff we’ve built the dynasty around).
