BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

I’m personally not a fan of the idea of gaining Kudos by means other than winning votes but won’t stand in the way if the players want something like this.

I’m also a little confused how this works. You exchange the set for 5 Kudos. But then you get an additional “n Kudos to their Kudos count, where n is the total value of the Pieces of Art being exchanged, in dollars, divided by 1000 and then rounded up.”??

Not voting for now so the second issue can be fixed.

Oops- that was a mistake left over from previous revisions. Fixed now, so it should only give the amount of kudos defined at the end of the article.

I don’t see the metaphor here; how would selling a clump of paintings earn a broker kudos in their career?

Collections do have to do something, which means that sooner or later it should influence kudos, so I don’t share that objection from Clucky. I am tepid on the ludonarrative dissonance, although I guess we could handwave it away as “loaning to a museum” or something.

Somewhat redundant to Sellers Market, but the set collection is a nice idea.

Well, my thinking was that once an art was in the public collection, someone might figure out a way to get art from there. However, I will say that if this proposal fails because of exact implementation and not general idea, it could be possible to reword exactly what sets would do. Something that this proposal would have to have done along with it is start tracking which artist/round each piece of art came from.

I’m a fan of the idea of collecting sets of paintings and think you should expand on that. I just want the primary goal to be to win votes and everything else augment that. Which means kudos should come from winning votes.

I see. I’ll have to put some serious thought into how I should take this from here.

Self-killing since I plan to start working on a version of this proposal that better fit’s Clucky’s vision of the dynasty.
