20090531 Alchohol, Caffiene, and Drugs

--Brainguard 21:07, 31 May 2009 (BST)

Suggestion type
New items and an update to the Beer and Wine.

Suggestion scope
Survivors


Suggestion description

  • Beer and Wine should have a more advanced effect. The idea is that, for the next 5 action, every action would cost twice as many AP. During this period, though, players would take half as much damage.
  • There should be another item: Caffiene Pills. The Caffeine Pills would put a character into a caffiene rush. During the rush, characters would be allowed to go into negative AP. The rush would end when a character goes down to -5 AP.
  • Also, there would be Drugs in the game. After a player is attacked, they could take the Drugs. It would negate the damage of the attack, but the damage would come back twice as hard in 5 actions. Drugs would give a 5% chance of infection

Drugs and Caffeine Pills could be found in pubs. Caffiene Pills could also be found in Hospitals, and Drugs could be found in Police Stations.

Voting Section

Voting Rules
Votes must be numbered, justified, signed, and timestamped.
# justification ~~~~

Votes that do not conform to the above may be struck by any user.

The only valid votes are Keep, Kill, Spam or Dupe. If you wish to abstain from voting, do not vote.

Keep Votes

  1. Keep - I support this, since I suggested something similar on DevSug once. Of course, and as expected, I had it explained to me perfectly reasonably why Kevan won't code drugs into the game, and I think Alcohol should have a more severe penalty, but whatever. Good luck getting this one through, Chuckles.--Necrofeelinya 23:37, 31 May 2009 (BST)

Kill Votes

  1. Kill - Alcohol's effect can be abused. Take a swig before you log off, take half damage while you're away! Drugs are just about useless, too. Caffeine is mildly OK. --Bob Boberton TF / DW 23:00, 31 May 2009 (BST)
    1. Fine, alcohol only works after being logged in. And replace "drugs" with painkillers. --Brainguard 01:20, 1 June 2009 (BST)
  2. Kill - There isn't much of a log on/ log off system in Urban Dead. Plus, these are overpowering. I do think alcohol should have more of an effect, though... --Turtleboy412 Talk! In game 04:23, 1 June 2009 (BST)
  3. Kill - please us developing suggestions before putting a suggestion to voting. Drugs are bad, M'kay. As combat is rarely live in Urban Dead, there isn't much point to receiving half damage for the next 5AP, unless you log off with such an effect active, and then it just makes it overpowered and stupid to have offline players at an advantage -- boxy talkteh rulz 06:36 1 June 2009 (BST)
  4. Kill - I kind of like the caffeine bit as long as it's rare enough so you can't make much of an AP profit with it but the rest is just spam.Legion8 10:14, 3 June 2009 (BST)

Spam/Dupe Votes

  1. Overpowered and a multi. How about, instead, players actually take DOUBLE damage when they think they aren't taking any. I mean since when was taking drugs a good thing?--Pesatyel 23:18, 31 May 2009 (BST)
    1. Re: but the damage comes back to bite you in the a** when you take drugs --Brainguard 01:20, 1 June 2009 (BST)
  2. Spam - I assume by 'drugs that are found in PD's' you mean illicit drugs. I refuse to accept any drug related suggestion in that sense. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 01:43, 1 June 2009 (BST)
  3. Spam - As DDR--Orange Talk 01:46, 1 June 2009 (BST)
  4. Spam - Condones improper drug abuse, as well as being ridiculous, overpowering and plain stupid.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 12:01, 1 June 2009 (BST)
  5. Spam - I agree with DDR, the use of drugs should not be involved in a game any one can be playing.--Michalesonbadge.pngTCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 20:15, 2 June 2009 (BST)
  6. Spam - I agree with DDR & Yonnua Koponen --Bjorn 18:13, 1 June 2009 (BST)
  7. Spam - No. As with DDR and Pesatyel. --Private Mark 02:46, 2 June 2009 (BST)
  8. As DDR. Seriously. What's next? Cocaine so you can go down to -50 AP? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 02:49, 2 June 2009 (BST)
  9. Spam - As all above me.--Kolechovski 22:19, 2 June 2009 (BST)
  10. Spam - As above. --Maverick Talk - OBR Praise Knowledge! 404 07:10, 3 June 2009 (BST)



Voting Rules
Current Suggestions

Advice to Suggesters

  1. Adding options to your suggestion is not good practice. Others will not vote on the options, only the main body; please don't ask them to do so.
  2. Once you have posted your suggestion, it is considered complete. Altering the suggestion mechanics after voting has begun nullifies existing votes, and is considered an abuse of the suggestions system. Doing so will result in your suggestion being removed from the voting system to removed suggestions, where you can work out the details and resubmit later if you desire. It is preferred that you remove your own suggestion and resubmit a new version with changes, if changes are needed.
  3. "Notes" added for clarification purposes, and correcting spelling/typos are permitted. When considering adding a clarification note, it is often better for all parties involved, for the author to remove the suggestion and resubmit it with the clarification included for the voters who have already placed their votes.

Advice to Voters

  1. You are voting on Suggestions, not Users. The text of your vote should not personally attack or denigrate the user who has submitted it... no matter how ridiculous the idea. Flaming and/or Trolling will not be tolerated.
  2. Before voting please read the Suggestions Dos and Do Nots and Frequently Suggested Ideas Page to read about concepts that have been generally considered unworkable in the past. You do not need to follow the guidelines on these pages but they are worth consideration before casting a vote.
  3. One vote per user. No exceptions. You cannot use multiple wiki accounts to vote on a suggestion.
  4. To Vote, use the [edit] button at the top of the voting section, then enter your vote in the the proper format to the end of the relevant section (keep/kill/spam).
  5. It is strongly recommended that voters (especially in the kill/spam sections) justify their vote to help others understand the reason they disagree. Feedback helps new suggesters get a feel for what the community does and does not want included in Urban Dead, and a deeper understanding of the balance needed for a workable suggestion.
  6. Votes must include a signature in order to be considered valid votes. To sign a vote, use --~~~~. Please remember to sign your votes! Unsigned votes will be deleted after 30 minutes or when found.
  7. Each Suggestion will be open to voting for two (2) weeks, measured from the suggestion's Timestamp, unless it is a Dupe or Spam. If, at the end of that time, there are two thirds (2/3) more Keep votes than Kill votes, the Suggestion will be moved to the Peer Reviewed Suggestions page. Otherwise, the Suggestion will be moved to the Peer Rejected Suggestions page.
Rules for Discussions

Votes are NOT the place to discuss Suggestions. This page and archived suggestion pages only to be used for the Suggesting and subsequent Voting of these suggestions. If you wish to discuss the suggestion or vote here, please use this page's Talk page (Suggestion talk:20090531 Alchohol, Caffiene, and Drugs). Suggestions do not have to be submitted in order to discuss them. Developing Suggestions can be used to workshop possible suggestions before they are submitted.

Valid Votes
  • Keep, for Suggestions that you believe have merit.
  • Kill, for Suggestions that you believe do not have merit. If you need to discuss a rule fix, use the discussion page.
  • Spam, for the most ridiculous suggestions.
Suggestions can be removed with Spam votes as described on the cycling suggestions page. If the criterion described there are not fulfilled, the suggestion must remain for the whole two weeks.
Spam votes are not a "strong kill", they are simply here to prevent the utterly ridiculous from clogging up the system. If you do not like the idea, and it's not some crazy uber power or something else ridiculous, VOTE KILL, NOT SPAM. Spam votes will be counted as Kill when votes are tallied.
  • Dupe, for Suggestions that are exact or very close duplicates of previous suggestions. For a Dupe vote to be valid, a link must be provided to the original suggestion.
Dupe votes can be used to remove suggestions as described on the cycling suggestions page. Dupe votes will not be counted when votes are tallied.
  • Humourous, for suggestions that are obviously intended to be satirical, or of comedic value only.}}
Suggestions can be removed with Humourous votes as described on the cycling suggestions page. If the criterion described there are not fulfilled, the suggestion must remain for the whole two weeks.
Invalid Votes
  • Server Load and Programming Complexity are NOT very good Kill reasons. You are voting on the merit of the suggestion and whether or not you think it belongs in the game. Server load/complexity issues are up to Kevan to decide.
  • X should be implemented first is not a valid reason for a vote. You are voting on the merit of THIS suggestion, not how it compares to others.
  • Votes that do not have reasoning behind them are invalid. You MUST justify your vote.
Comments
  • Re may be used to comment on a vote. Only the original author and the person being REd can comment. Comments are restricted to a single comment per vote, and it is expected that Re comments be as short as possible. Reing every kill vote is considered abuse of the Re comment. A Re does not count as a vote, and any subsequent discussion not part of the Re comment should be held on the discussion page if there is any extended commenting.
  • Note is used by System Operators to invalidate trolling-based votes. Only Sysops may remove troll-based votes and they do so with a strikeout <s></s> in order to preserve the trolling removal for posterity. The voter may contest the strikeout with the Sysop that struck their vote out on the discussion page. Only a System Operator may remove a strikeout.
All Caps

Try to avoid YELLING, writing in bold, or using italics, except when emphasizing a point which has escaped other voters.
