So as we all know, some people have been getting upset about ec. namely Yogy. Now as some of you know, its not just yogy who gains a lot of Ec, its others as well. Obviously banning Yogy from events will do nothing, other than creating another hate target. So this is a little idea i had. (Dont kill me, its just an idea.)


So when a person wins an event and gets an event coin, An admin places a special tag that lasts for a day, an hour, whatever. That tag does nothing to the player other than preventing that person from entering the event itself. This will prevent the player(s) from racking up too much Ec at one time. However: The tag does nothing to event bot events. the player can frolic in lms, crab wrestling, ect.

So far i havent seen any holes in this plan. Please point out/fix them if you see any.

and that wraps that up  

This solves this:

Man up and try to win.
Yogy kicks your ass......
Then try to kick his!!!!

im not complaining about him winning. im suggesting an idea that i believe is fair for everyone.  

More luck events
More typing events
.........
I bet grammar events would screw him over  

that would suck if you're in a basing gang

I don't think he means a gang tag, more like an invisible qualifier.

Yes, this is what I meant. Sorry for the unclarity.

Dont make fun of yogy because of his grammar. English isnt his first language.  

I'd be okay with people only being able to win 1ec per day. That would increase rarity of EC items and give the more untalented players a shot.  

I only play events when LMS is being auto-hosted. I can't ever catch a real event.
I usually win it when I play; a couple things I've noted with it though:

• Egg/Artillery Cannons: Should have some sort of splash damage that effects the player using it. Often times, they just walk right up to the wall and spam their AC, dealing damage within a 5-tile radius.
  
• Grenades: Could possibly be disabled; highly annoying.

 

I don't really care about ecs anymore, but having a one ec per day limit would make getting a lightsaber or gas cannon a real b*tch.

And this is why this is a terrible, terrible, terrible idea. Also, how many admins host a day? Like 2? Maybe 3? There's not really, how you say, an "EC problem". Want something, earn it. If you suck, stop sucking. I haven't done that yet, but I'm working on it.

Is that some kind of sick, racial slur? It wouldn't really be fair, because it'd take way to long to get what you want. Seriously, 35 days to get a katana without the event bot? I, as an individual, have never liked event bot events, so I don't generally play them, or even have the option on.  

Maybe I should add Events Team to my job description.
I haven't hosted events since 2007.

Please tell me where in my post that was racist at all...lmao

And isn't that the point? It already takes long for the average player to get what they want because you have people in your gang hogging EC and cheating. If this idea were to be added the average player would have a shot at getting EC rather than you 20 members digging up crabs in races taunting people
