Topic: New galaxy idea: "Survivor: Imperial Conflict"

Here's the setup:

10 families
10 people per family.

Round length: 7 weeks.

Here's the big proposed round change: Exactly 1 week after round start, and at the same time each week, the maximum family size would be reduced by 1.  If a family has too many players past the deadline, the mods randomly select one player to remove (delete).

The result?  A whole new level of intra-family politics.  Each week, families would need to work it amongst themselves to remove one of their own from their family.  Diplomacy?  Some sort of deal cut?  Or outright conflict between members?  Families will need to manage their internal politics as much as external politics, attempting to establish some system to determine which players stay until the end.  At the same time, families will need to be continually on the watch to protect against other, more stable families that may take advantage of heated internal uprisings.  No matter the family's size or net worth, they couldn't escape the great equalizer of mod-enforced mid-round player limits!


Thoughts?  Suggestions?  Insults?

It would be a waste of time and nothing to do with IC.

Re: New galaxy idea: "Survivor: Imperial Conflict"

My arguements towards this is, people who are better at speaking in Real Life will have a massive advantage, wheras shy or new players would be kicked out straight away, maybe losing them from the game all together.

My suggestion is that this would have to be a non-draft galaxy as friends in IC would just get in the same fam and continually vote of the other players, until it was just them, and they could take turns in consecutive rounds to be the last person in the fam.

Don't know you well enough to come up with a constructive insult, so um, lol Just think of one yourself and pretend I said it tongue


but apart from that yeah lol, It adds a cool new level of strategy to an already awesome game, so yup, I like it, and if it came to a vote for adding this, I'd defo vote on it ^_^

Re: New galaxy idea: "Survivor: Imperial Conflict"

this would have to be a closed entry nwith more experienced well known players or new players would simply be killed asap. extreme favoritism.

what if we were in a galaxy that every 24hours the family members were swapped. forcing a small ammount of self sufficientcy and a bit of creativity

Re: New galaxy idea: "Survivor: Imperial Conflict"

Pfft, IC Mafia with no story. Boooooring!

Modestus Experitus

Arby: A very strict mod, reminds me of a fat redneck who drives a truck around all day with a beer in one hand. I hated this guy at the start, however, I played a round in PW with him where he went as an anonymous player. Our fam got smashed up and everyone pretty much left. Arby stayed around and helped out the remaining family. At the end of the round he revealed himself.... My views on him have changed since. Your a good guy.....

Re: New galaxy idea: "Survivor: Imperial Conflict"

hahaaaaaa.... arby is a genious!! what if there was a round of real IC mafia!!!!

maybe 1 sk in each family. and the family must vote every day who to kill off to try and stop the sk. if they fail they lost a family memeber and still have an sk killing them. if they win they can start attacking other families tongue

Re: New galaxy idea: "Survivor: Imperial Conflict"

I think something would need to be done here though to hide your true identities.  Otherwise its going to just be a popularity contest out of past issues rather than whats going on during the round itself and in the current diplomacy.
