robuko Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 A 14 day week is initially appealing to me, as I'm one of those who hates to miss out a week. You can already see that this feeling is a bit stronger in M.A.N.T.I.S. because we're smaller and under more pressure currently. Sorry for off topic but just on this: Mantis has 24 builders overall vs 25 at Kawashita and 29 at Octan - and there were a number of excellent builders who signed up for Mantis when the bribe bags were active. The corporations are better matched than I expected overall. As for pressure on Mantis.... Talk to lady K...
Commander Beltar Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Alright, I'll give my two cents in. I think it should remain 7 days, as others said, because it adds pressure and makes you want to build. "More Mocs in 3 months than in 20 years". Is exactly what I think about when I build sometimes, as I used to basically only participate in SoNE and a couple other MOCs here and there. And for people like me, I say no way to 14 days unless it's for judging reasons as my stories are very, very, convoluted, meaning the more stories I can churn out to continue the last one, the better . (Go 3 days! Kiddin'. I think.) (by December.. I could probably write a book on Beltar's huge random story, which I like being able to do keep continuing) 14 days on the other hand would allow cooler, better, and bigger builds, but slows down the game in terms of stories. Also, I see no problem with an occasional break. What if during that one week, we could build for whatever corporation. Anyways, it's late while posting this, and I'm on a phone. So tomorrow I may add more to this. ~Beltar
SpacerSteve Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Also, I see no problem with an occasional break. What if during that one week, we could build for whatever corporation. ~Beltar This would be an amazing idea! It would be fun to put away the lime green and black for a week. back on topic. I manage the weekly build. I have no real complaints about the current system. It would be easier for me if it was 14 days but if it was easy it wouldn't be a challenge and to me it's the challenge that gives this game value. If that makes any sense. I think I'll vote to keep it the same.
rodiziorobs Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 This would be an amazing idea! It would be fun to put away the lime green and black for a week. Or get captured by another team or something. I have seriously built as much for Kawashita and more for Octan than I have for M.A.N.T.I.S.! Thanks Bob for opening this discussion up. I appreciate the open nature approach to resolving questions about the rules. Even if it doesn't actually change anything, it's good to see how everyone feels about the topic.
Kai NRG Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 ...There's only one woman? I'm pretty sure there are a few... or at least more than one. although I do refer to some members by the gender of their character on accident now and again... Yeah, were you talking to me, Bob? I didn't vote for three days, you know. In fact, I don't even remember seeing it.
Dannylonglegs Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 (edited) Yeah, were you talking to me, Bob? I didn't vote for three days, you know. In fact, I don't even remember seeing it. I think he was referring to Lady K, but who knows. I'm the troll who voted 3 days. Or get captured by another team or something. I have seriously built as much for Kawashita and more for Octan than I have for M.A.N.T.I.S.! Octan certainly appreciates this! As we say: "Octan: you work for us. Even if you don't." Ditto on the thank yous to Bob! I love that you're so receptive to criticism! ~Insectoid Aristocrat Edited July 25, 2015 by Dannylonglegs
Kai NRG Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 I think he was referring to Lady K, but who knows. I'm the troll who voted 3 days. ... Yes, that was my first guess too. Three days would be a bit... hectic...
