We're thinking of picking a round in the future where we comp questionably fun and blacklisted setups e.g. fp, gallis etc. It hasn't been done before and would be a bit of fun. Your opinion as a community on this is important though so we thought we'd ask. Would be great if you could discuss the idea/let us know your thoughts here!
Yeah jan 2.0 is awful LOL, it's so bad like it's bad because it's bad.
Would you guys mod this round still, and stop all the people who would be cheating (this is obvious cheating we're talking about not any inherent meta or non-lynching going on between pals that's prominent when these setups are unblacklisted in red hearts to farm alts which is strictly a coincidence).
If you don't mod how can we know if the integrity of the trophy won through minesweeper is legit...
Yes, it would be really enticing to win a competitive trophy playing a setup which was banned from competitive play for reasons that it was found unsuitable for trophy runs. That would be the bee's knees. I'm super thrilled just thinking about it. I could imagine all the new players it'd bring to the competitive mafia scene by competitively playing non-competitive setups.
On a side note, Also, I think it'd be fun to give out trophies for forum games, because stickers and tokens get boring after a while. This would garner new attention to the forums. Maybe even allowing some trophies to be won in the featured videogames that lucid has implemented to the site!! How spicy would it be if some new player ventured to your profile and saw you got a gold trophy in round 554 (the pioneered round of competitive mafia stack it).
edit: I never had the pleasure of 'the cool dad' who would tell me 'im your friend first and dad second' before slipping me a bag of pot before a sleepover at my pal's house, so I'm really amped to see the mods fill this role with these incredible ideas.
it probably wouldn't even do that. you couldn't consider the fake round competitive and i don't think people would go into real setups just because fake setups were gold hearted for a little bit
