Trophying 2 Rounds in a row

deletedover 8 years

Now that we have two decent admins who I think are willing and ready to embrace change (for the better) I believe it is an opportune time to bring forward a suggestion with regards to trophying.

I believe that the rule stopping people from trophying twice in a row is unnecessary and really does not have a strong reason behind it .

As a competitive person, I would much rather go up against everyone and anyone who wants to run. For example this round gerry cant trophy which means I am unable to compete against him which would make the round more enjoyable and competitive. I'd love to see which players are good enough to win more than 1 trophy in a row. It is also something new to strive for, for those who have already trophied and need something new to achieve.

I don't really see why people shouldnt be allowed to trophy twice in a row. I dont think it would cause the same people to win trophies every round, it would be quite a feat to be able to trophy twice in a row. Anyone who could achieve this would thoroughly deserve it. Removing this restriction will just allow for higher levels of competition in my mind.

this thread is late you could have struck while the iron was hot and the admin was about to win a second consecutive trophy


That is the exact reason I didn't post this earlier.

I dont want bias involved, I just genuinely believe that the rule is unnecessary.

This rule was implemented by Lucid about 8 years ago. It's Lucid you'll have to convince.


My friend lucid isnt here and doesnt partake in the day to day of epic mafia.

The two admins have the authority to make this change if they see fit .

That is incorrect. It'd be the salty persons who emailed him after the change was made that'd have to convince him to care about his 8 year old rule.

no cuz they will just comp setups that they made which nobody else knows wat optimal play on it is. then they'll use it to their advantage in games by saying "i made this setup just follow me". kinda like how extravagance farmed on LOBL


I disagree, I dont think creating new setups would give someone that much of an advantage to make them win every round.


u clearly weren't there when extravagance was winning all the time on LOBL bc ppl wud just sheep him for having created the setup


I have no idea who that is but jsyk you cant mod the same setup within 3 rounds. Also 6 setups a round are comped so I really dont see how you could force people to play a setup only you know how to play.

common sense tells us that this idea, if implemented, would not be groundbreaking in any way or dramatically change anything for better or worse. and it might be fun for a few months


Yeah you are spot on my friend. Its a subtle change, but in a case where theres not much difference shouldnt there be less restriction?

Whats the reason for not being able to trophy twice?


ya this p much

Nothing would be more annoying than having to deal with my best friends running every damn round.

Btw I have debated various peoples concerns about this topic, including the fact that there would be more cheaters and that the same people would win every round.

I dont wanna go into depth on that again because I think theres really no reason to believe either of those would be true.
