Hello,

Jinfarr here and i have a idea i would like to run past horus/ignis too see the response and hopefully... put into action.

My idea is simple, the draconic gem for the longest time has been a item of greed aswell as power. It has caused allot of arguments in the past and lets face it, its a greedy wish on its own there is no doubt about that... however... ( and now wecome to my idea)

If we (ignis/horus) were to setup a sort of rotation system, perhaps we can get some fun and some use out of it? By rotation i mean ALL clans who activly participate in invasions should be subject to this rotation, this would apply to all the big clans andmost of the smaller ones.

The problem is people see the wish as pointless and greedy, it can be a greedy wish yes but useless... definatly not, i have had a drac gem that has just worn off and i wouldnt want another but i enjoyed the time i had with it, and i believe others deserve a fair chance to obtain one for themselves.

^^ The only condition being that the user is an active player

If you have read all this and still do not want to participate then please post your reason and perhaps we can discuss if nothing else, Ill add a vote and see what kind of results pop up,

Jinfarr /Horus - Ignis

Thanks x

I think this idea has potential. xD I like tcbo1, but I think it needs better organization... like fair fights and not only one clan getting the gem.

Good on paper. Your mileage may vary on the ground.

But, I wish you all the best on the attempt of it. I will not vote because I am rabidly against that wish and as such very biased.

My issue is that no matter how you work it, that item is flawed concept for a collaborative game.
How will you decide which clans are worthy? Is a clan of 150 more worthy than a clan of 10? Suppose the 10 are active and 15 of the 150 are active. How do you work that out? Suppose a clan has 5. Are they at the bottom of the heap? Who gets the gem in the chosen clan? Will others resent it secretly? Will others outside the clan resent the clan choice? What about unattached players? What about players who are not in the centre social circle of their clans? Suppose a clan only has 2 people on in times of open portal? Their efforts are less valuable because of time zone issues?

Who defines all this? Who gets to decide the rotation? The dominant Clans? Elitism anyone? One man one vote? Clan with 2 people has equal vote as clan with 300? Will the dominant clans resent this?

With warmasters as is , what is the point of the wish now?

Best of luck working out those parameters. When Positive XP for Ignis is not available I will vote my usual way. That is + gold or not vote at all.

That.

Id rather see a new wish that gives EVERYONE involved a mini less effective draconic gem for maybe 3 days. Its a stupid concept for dozens of people to work for a goal and 1 person to get the reward.

I think its even stupider a realm can invade so much and can make a poll about what to do with wishes because they invade so much... :play_ball:

What happened to gem locking??? :rale:

I think there are going to be issues with that. #1 being the differences in definition of "underpopulated".
