Care to elaborate what you mean by the 1,2,3?

I didn't know where else to post this and I really hope I don't come across as an idiot. I don’t know how well I’m going to do at this so bare with me. All things considered with DoM and fixing its kinks, I may not be the best qualified considering that I’m, more or less a rookie in the means of Do...

Honestly there's no way to get around adding complexity to DoM. There isn't. Any changes add to the possibility of increasing it. Like I said before, and is pretty well understood by the majority of us, by opening the full 12x12 a vacuum is created. We're all trying to generate ideas to fill that va...

[DoM4] Elemental Burst

Though much momentum with what comes next in regards to DoM has stalled in recent months. The main problem area that’s come up is “All right, so we’re thinking to open up the full matrix to players, but then what incentive is there for them to stick around”? With that in mind I began working on an i...

The changes are to fix weaknesses in gameplay that DoM currently has, which will make it more fun to more people, Not to play Devil's Addy, but how can you be sure? The main "weaknesses" DoM has is really Duel Length, Higher 15 round/Tie percentage, and streamline defenses. If opening the...

So we're all back to this? It's true that the topic of "How can we improve DoM and get people involved again?" has cropped up off and on for nearly the last 10-12 years. Heavy discussion in 2004. It's also true that changes have been implemented successfully. I think the consensus is clear...

Just add a side thought. This proposed system as a form of modifier continues the trend of keeping all 3 sports different. DoS has Fancies, DoF has Feints. This is a Modifier open to all ranks. Something the other two do not offer. And by limiting it to only 4 Style Points at one time. Any Offensive...

[DoM4} Retool Style Points

I know we're still discussing my resubmission along with the Super Modifier thread. However I remembered something we used to do in DoM but stopped. I've all ready mentioned this to Neo and Harris as This trend started with Random and Lem took up the flag for a while after him. Style Points were som...

Time to reign things back a little bit. It is very clear we're all in agreement that something needs to change, but the divergence is on method. Like Harris, I'm not in favor of a Modifier system, but I feel we can do something better still. The amalgamation of my idea and Jake's addition can be alt...

At first glance opening up the full matrix and introducing modifiers looks good and a simple fix. However I wouldn't call it DoM4. material. Maybe 3.5 because it's not a SUPER OMG change. Just another tweaking. I see where you're going with this, but it doesn't really matter. Once whatever changes ...

"Mutual Assured Dethronement. Haven't seen this in a while.

By any chance who would be officiating these? I would request the honor unless other arrangements have been made."

A copy of the note is tacked on the Cork.

[DoM4] A resubmission.

Said I'd post more on Friday. And so here we go. And I put it in a new thread as requested. At first glance opening up the full matrix and introducing modifiers looks good and a simple fix.

Re: Druid Turtling is still quite possible with 12. Obviously, and modded turtling becomes part of the game. G becomes insanely powerful. FF becomes wicked as pointed out. I'll discuss this quote here in a moment. However I'm still reading through your proposal Neo and will have a more indepth anal...
