Waifu Game: New ideas?

I'm considering a loyalty bonus for those of you who have participated in every game since the start (this would be for the next game). I am also open to new ideas, I'm starting to feel like we need something else to accompany the game. Perhaps a rating system to collect points. Does anyone have any new ideas they would like to bring to the table? I'm not looking for ways to change the current rules, just new features that can increase the fun of the game. Let me know what you guys come up with.

In the chat thread I had brought up an idea which you may have read. It eventually turned into that at the end of the 5 rounds with a grace period of like a week or so for divorces we could start creating polls pitting 1 persons 5 wives against another in essentially who has the better harem of waifu's. Each poll would last a day and it would stop people from only voting for themselves if it was a mass poll. Obviously this only includes people who participated the entire time and got 5 waifu's and whatnot. So essentially Motemote but a 5v5 instead of 1v1 and also essentially user vs. user where one guy will stand out in the end with have the best consensus harem of waifu's.

I approve of this idea. Rather than an ordinary 1vs1 MoteMote battle, a 5vs5 could bring something new to the waifu game.

Whether this is a good idea or not, it's basically a separate game, not a new feature for the waifu game itself.

I do, of course, support the loyalty bonus wholeheartedly. 8)

i approve of this thread and the idea that has been brought forth .... nut thats jus me bein a loyal waifu player :P

See that's the thing that bugs me. "Who has the better harem?" The waifu game is as stated "To marry your beloved 2d girl" or something along the lines of that. In other words you pick a girl based on who you have love for, and to each person that varies, so judging who's "harem" is better holds no value because you cannot judge such a thing. Then it would basically be who has better trophy wives. No, that idea is shit, I actually pick girls I like, not who's popular or who looks the best on my sig. People picking girls solely for the sake of wanting to have a "better harem" than another would pretty much nullify the meaning of marry your "beloved" 2d character. All this game would turn into, if not already, is another popularity contest.

I must say I agree with Gugu. I suggest a simpler loyalty bonus, that is, after the reclaim week, give a period of time (a week, I suggest) only for loyal players to claim their waifus.

Or that they can reclaim more waifus in the reclaim week compared to the newer players.

True dat. For me, Yuna>Any Harem, any time.
This would turn into fights between harems with the best concentration of popular girls... and that seems pointless.

the loyalty bonus I'm considering is allowing them a 6th waifu. I am also open to other ideas (first dibs on round 1 is not an option).

loyalty bonus doesn't add anything to this round of the game and that limits a lot of people who can attain it. If you are not a fan then you wouldn't have to participate obviously. The main thing about this that entertains me is trying to get girls you like and figuring out what round you can get them in. That's why I would say the strategic element comes in which come make the poll/competition interesting. I mean all you guys who reclaimed your waifu's already have an advantage cuz most reclaimed are popular girls which would benefit you down the line. you could almost consider that your loyalty bonus to the game. As for you lamz0r when the person who has yuna comes up (prolly you) then you vote for her and otherwise make judgment calls. But hey, don't just rag on my idea GuGu come up with one of your own then. Me, I'm just trying to be helpful.

there will be a loyalty bonus next game, that is not up for debate. I am asking if there are any other ideas also if someone has a better idea for the loyalty bonus I am all ears; telling me the bonus should not exist isn't a better idea.

This. Pretty much what was suggested already for the previous reset.

And because it wouldn't be me if I didn't try this, how about the loyalty bonus being one extra reclaim for every game you've participated in? 8) Well, minus the last game, of course, since obviously you'd need to participate there to have any waifus to reclaim at all. This would both satisfy me with giving me the high number of reclaims I've always wanted, and also make the bonus available for players starting in later games, while still giving a higher bonus to those of us who have been participating for a longer time.

Loyalty bonus applies for those who've been participating since game 1 then?

luin: no.

loyalty bonus question: yes.

Oh, well... At least I tried. :D

The loyalty bonus would be nice, but in defence for those who were not here at the time of the first waifu game (join date), it would be unfair as some people might not have even known about Fakku! at the time. Other than that, the bonus sounds good for those faithful to the game.

As to other ideas, I have none. But, it would be nice to add some punishment for those who do not read the rules before posting. As you might have seen in the first round this time, there were tons of people that I haven't even seen before posting stupid things without reading the rules. It's just that, reading the rules of a game before playing should be common sense, but the things I've seen this time, I'm doubting how "common" common sense is. =.=

6th waifu eh? I kinda like this idea. Yea, I understand that first round advantage is kinda hax. XD

I'm sticking to the idea for a bonus reclaim rights for the ones who get the "loyalty bonus".

it's much more useful if that certain loyal user wants to maintain his/her favorite waifu, rather than throwing them all up in the reclaim week.

so the bonus is "You have the right to make (at least) 2 reclaims in the next reclaim week.

well, that's just me though, since I'm a more "Quality person" than "Quantity person"
:D

I don't support the idea of a "Harem showdown".


Edit: The idea that "it's not fair" for newbies isn't logical to me. Since, Basically these loyal members deserves something positive as an incentive for always supporting game. Analogically speaking "I paid more for this game, why did that new guy who paid half my price has the same accommodation as I do" well.. something like that you got the picture

point is Let the newbies climb their way up themselves

Loyality bonus:
A) allowing those users to claim one waifu that has already been taken (or reclaimed) by someone else, sharing her with the "original" owner. This would have to be done during the first or second round of game, preventing them from claiming any other girl until round 2/3. Each girl could be shared with one user only.

B) letting them to claim twice during the starting round, with at least 48 hours gap between those claims.

C) letting them to keep one more waifu that will be/has been decided during the reclaim week. (though this seems like the "first round dibs" option)

No. I'm sure no-one wants to share their waifu.
