20120801 Lower Stats Page Requirement to 8

RossWHO????ness 18:27, 1 August 2012 (BST)

Suggestion type
Game statistics Group Rankings change

Suggestion scope
Meta-gaming/groups.

Suggestion description
As the number of active characters has decreased/levelled out, so too group membership is down overall. I therefore propose that we lower the current bar, and show groups with eight or more known members in the Group Rankings listings (down from the old ten).

It would boost recruitment and visibility for many smaller groups and/or those groups that flit between being on the stats page and not.

A simple change that could positively impact the smaller, closer knit, usually more territorial groups this game now produces, whilst offering more visibility for established and brand new groups alike.

It Should be noted, that I've stolen the idea wholly from, Bosch. I'm just delivering his baby.

It should be noted the stats page used to be a lot longer than it currently is. (A lot longer) and as such, should easily accommodate such a change.

Keep Votes

  1. Keep So good an idea, I stole it. --RossWHO????ness 18:28, 1 August 2012 (BST)
  2. Keep Thanks for moving this forward, Ross. Bob Moncrief EBDW! 19:41, 1 August 2012 (BST)
  3. Keep/Change - Lower it, but lower it to whatever will expand it to be the right size, rather than necessarily lowering it to 8. Whether that means lowering it to 9, 8, 7, or 6, just go with whatever is best. Aichon 20:50, 1 August 2012 (BST)
  4. Keep Makes sense, but probably just another suggestion that will never be implemented because somebody is lazy. -- Johnny Twotoes 20:55, 1 August 2012 (BST)
    Reply... lazy or uninterested? Q2019 thread about UD, if what was said in that thread is true, be glad some suggestions were implemented. -- Son of Sin 21:12, 1 August 2012 (BST)
    As usual Son, you're hilarious. I have found a thread that states Kevan doesn't read suggestions! You should be glad some suggestions were implemented! Especially as that's impossible, because he doesn't read them! I salute your circular brilliance. --RossWHO????ness 21:23, 1 August 2012 (BST)
    I only said be glad some suggestions were implemented. But I think he was being too generous by implementing player suggestions if UD was only a project for a presentation. Or maybe part of the project was to see how much momentum the game would gain with a UD wiki. It's pretty amazing how the UD wiki is more popular and has changed more than the game itself. -- Son of Sin 23:30, 1 August 2012 (BST)
    It's only natural with such a large player base. I'm sure a quarantine wiki would be similar. That way you wouldn't suffer the current issues with your game guide. --RossWHO????ness 23:41, 1 August 2012 (BST)
  5. Aye why not. Nothing to be done! 00:07, 2 August 2012 (BST)
  6. Keep - I'm obviously in favour, but I still believe that 5 would be the best threshold, given the state of the meta-game now, and predicting where it'll be in the future. --BOSCH 00:14, 2 August 2012 (BST)
  7. Keep - Solid.--Shortround }.{ My Contributions 00:30, 2 August 2012 (BST)
  8. The meta is growing smaller and smaller. We need to accommodate the change in size. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 01:06, 2 August 2012 (BST)
  9. As the above, and Ross is a thief. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 01:21, 2 August 2012 (BST)
  10. Sure, go ahead. -- Spiderzed 22:48, 4 August 2012 (BST)
  11. Keep - smaller game, more useful info. Also, strike Sos' completely irrelevant comment pls tia --Karloth Vois ¯\(°_o)/¯ 09:58, 10 August 2012 (BST)

Kill Votes

  1. Kill... I'm sure Kevan has better things to do. A better suggestion may be to ask Kevan to give away UD to a new developer...someone who has played for years, still plays and will update/upgrade the game. And a developer who is unbiased (has played Survivor, Zombie, Dualist, PKer, Bounty Hunter, etc). Sidenote: I'm accustomed to message board editing, so ignore the minor edits. -- Son of Sin 21:12, 1 August 2012 (BST)
