Proposal: Match Un-Making

Popular, 5-0. Enacted by JonathanDark.

Adminned at 13 Sep 2024 14:48:42 UTC

In the rule “Matches”, replace the text

A Group is a set of 3 Cells

with

A Group is a set of 5 Cells

If the proposal “Multimatch Drifting” is Enacted, replace

(X-3) * (X- 2) / 2

with

(X-5) * (X-4) / 2

in the Collect Match atomic action.

With the Game Board now generated, it’s clear that it’s way too easy to get a match of 3 cells. I think 5-cell matches sound reasonable.

You might need to adjust the formula that Clucky is proposing in Multimatch Drifting to account for this larger group.

idk if 4 or 5 will be better. I guess if 5 proves too hard we can drop it down to 4?

I think with the stars as wild, 5 should probably be okay. But yeah it’s unclear to me how things will play out once the initial matches are gone.
