As we all know, if meteor crashes down on anyone during a game, everyone loses the game and thus loses their heart. This can cause a lot of issues and finger pointing as to who is to blame for meteor happening. I had a recent gave that I've been having to fight to get refunded and I think there's a simple solution to this.

If meteor causes the game to end, the game should be unranked.

It isn't fair to make everyone in the game lose their heart if only certain people forced the meteor to happen and most of the time the game gets refunded anyways.

Any thoughts?

No.

Unranking it doesn't help because it'll get abused and those who abuse it get their heart back anyway

Sure they get a GT vio, but they still get their heart back

meteor system is/was broken for atleast 2 years or more. why would it be changed now?


why not


what i meant was: why would mods care more now ? what has changed for them to care more? its not too hard to fix meteor logic, but there arent enough mods that care about this and have enough brain to understand how to fix it


because nobody really had a good alternative for it and ignored it because meteor doesn't happen often


wrong. meteor happens often, in GAI rounds it was happening a lot. and there has been alternatives

Actually I retract. Town will just force mafia to kill and give up the game more. Esp in classic and Fp.

This sounds so legit. DO it. Unrank it.

Nah, imo just teach everyone how Meteor works, how the meteor is going to be forced if you try to kill someone who's getting saved by doc, how hitting an unhit BP is gonna force meteor, how doc shouldn't be saving on mylo if they are not sure as to whether or not mafia would NK,... These are stuff that u learn after playing lots of games and experiencing different scenarios. Teaching new players how mechanics work takes a whole new tab on the site (like how there was a whole Wiki for it). Making deficient threads isn't enough.

it's fair because mafia is about being enslaved by the majority. If you failed to persuade the majority to play wisely you deserve your loss.

i was never trying to argue about who is gamethrowing when. I'm proposing that the game goes unranked instead of everyone having to wait for a refund

I'm gonna duck out of this thread, I believe I proved my point here. It's really, really obviously mafia in that situation.

You're asking which side should sacrifice their win-con for the other team
