Proposal: Sight Unseen

Timed out, 1-3. Failed by JonathanDark.

In “The Big One” replace

The number of characters in the Big One is a publicly tracked integer called the “Length of the Big One”

with

The number of characters in the Big One is a private tracked integer called the “Length of the Big One”

Add an Upgrade called “Radar” with a cost of 10 and an Effect “As a Virtual Fishing Action known as Radar Activation, you may ask the Elder Judge what the Length of the Big One is. To resolve this action, they inform you the Length of the Big One”

In Trophies replace “Fail all unresolved Fish Identification” with “Fail all unresolved Radar Activation or Fish Identification”

There’s already a price being paid to discover the characters in The Big One. I don’t think the length needs to be obscured behind further costs.

If we think it’s too easy to use Churn the Mind to discover The Big One, let’s adjust the Madness cost or maybe the minimum length of The Big One instead.

part of it probably depends on if Darknight keeps making the big one an actual fish

there are only so many fishes of a certain length that I feel its a bit too narrow of a playing field.

That’s a fair problem. I think the best way to address it might be to go after the way that The Big One is actually created, or maybe the Fish Function itself. I have an idea, so let me take some time to write it up and see if we can have an alternative to burying every game step behind multiple cost walls.
