I'm thinking of a game called "Word Mix". How this works is a GM can drop a variety of mixed letters in the map. Christmas letters from A-Z and we would have to guess what word it is. Words should be Maple or Royal related and doesn't have to necessarily be as easy as my example example:
Seems fun, a game based on knowledge/skill. Looks like an event for Aly, she did all the word-guessing events during xmas, too. How will you prevent people from picking it up? I mean is there a way so they can't?
I remember those events. It was so crowded and everyone would just spam just to mess with the event. It was almost impossible to see who was first, nonetheless chaotic (at least the one's I've been to). My suggestion if this event is implemented(which it seems like it will be soon) or for any future event alike: Mute everyone in the map and have people whisper the GM their answer. I've been to events like the one above in a number of other private servers that would do this with a large number of people. It worked out just fine. In my opinion, it's easier to monitor and people are less likely to spam during the event since they would be speaking to a GM directly rather than to other players. In addition, if someone spams a GM, they are an easy !kick. Seems like a more practical way of doing things. Just my two cents.
EVERYTHING is better as betrayal, although hosting betrayal events only will probably not be fun for some people after a while. But yeah, seems like a good idea. And you're right Christine, it'd lead to a whole shitload of spam, so whisping a GM directly would definitely be better. Btw, you can do this event in two ways: 1) Drop all letters at the same time. 2) Drop them one by one, and the GM says BEFORE he/she starts dropping how many letters there will be in total. (This one seems better to me, personally).
Well, it kinda is like that, but harder, since you don't actually get to know the position of the letters, which will ultimately lead to confusion and make it even harder to guess. But we need some challenge!
I'm not sure about this one, especially with betrayal style. I think incorporating "betrayal style" into every event is a little overboard, because as someone who brought betrayal style to the server, i can tell you it gets REALLY annoying after a while. Also, unless the gm can instantly drop 5-15 letters, there's so much time before the characters are all dropped for someone to guess it, and there's not gonna be anything so hard that it can't be guessed instantly. And someone suggested that you can guess as the letters are being dropped, that makes it better, but idk, test it, it seems insanely easy to me. Just my two cents.
It's possible to drop the whole set of letters instantly, I've seen Lloyd do it many times. There won't be letters dropping one by one. It's called word mix (Word Scramble sounds like a better game name though), letters should be scrambled and dropped instantly. As for betrayal style or not, it's totally up to the Gms. I'm down for whatever as long as it's fun
