It's Time; rev scoops

November will mark the 1 Year Anniversary of Mod Strike 2014!

By November, I will not have earned 200 SD this year. This exciting fact means that, if 2015 is any indication of an average post speed for me, revision scoops will take me more than 1 year to earn!

Can I get everyone to reply below with their most active character, and how much SD you've earned with that char since November 2014?

Here's a winning quote from the oh-so-great Yaksha last year!
Quote:
 
With 120 SD in a year being an average, and with that being among mods, I think we can reasonably say any normal members could be expected to make 50% more than our mods with the extra time they have available.
That's right kids, you're all expected to pump out 180 SD a year. Lemme see those 180's!

Obviously if you haven't been here since last Nov your numbers aren't helpful. But if you hate revision scoop's every-200-sd cooldown feel free to absolutely tear apart this terrible system!

Proposed changes:
Revision scoop cooldown should be a time-length requirement, not an SD requirement.

50% of 120 is 60, meaning that normal members are expected to get 180... Just saying.

its 3am
fuck
NO ONE QUOTE ME
edit: I'd like to point out the even more delicious fact that if everyone's predicted average is only 180 sd then it's also assumed that rev scoops will take longer than a year

Uuuh. 274. Like I said on steam tho' I don't see this happening dear. lol

Via request I'll elaborate a bit. Blues are stuck in their ways, so I don't see this happening. Pretty much the summed up reasoning.

100 SD and 6 months is more reasonable, even if I would prefer no SD requirements.

On the subject of Revision Scoops

  • We could probably stand to shift from an SD-based restriction to a time-based one. In past times, when graders were significantly more flux in their general quality and leniency, the SD restriction was probably even a terrible decision, as it wasn't even a perfectly objective measure. In a sense.

    Time based restriction is probably better.

  • Let me be clear to everyone; I don't really care for revision scoops as a whole. I like full scoops. I prefer enabling the exploration of entirely new character themes - equipped with SD, if that goes to making the theme more enriching. Mechanical tweaking is less important to me.

    However, generally speaking, at high SD, full scoops are full-blown mechanical over-hauls, and therefore even worse (at least, typically, revision scoops at least have a semblance of similarity left over).

  • The general cool-down for full scoops on a single slot is probably best given as 6 months.

  • I suspect this will be taken a variety of ways (full scoop nerf incoming rip sorry guys), but my stance is really just that there's no real substantial reasoning for differentiation.

    yes that means i think the sd restriction is silly

    no i don't think the time restriction needs to be shortened (and believe me, i'm currently waiting on a full scoop right now, i'd fucking love that) don't post that here please ;~;


edit: yes i deliberately neglected to note any mention of 'site canon' in this post

Since I started role playing here again during January, I've earned over 150 SD which makes getting a revision scoop pretty hard unless for a period of time you choose to post daily but then again Shizu pretty much stated what was wrong with Revision scoops.

first mod to open this discussion back up in wc gets my vote for blue

if shizu agrees with time-based cooldown and he's the last blue left standing, does that mean we can change this? thx
give me 1 year rev scoop cooldown instead of 200-yearly-sd
give me 6 month every-type scoop cooldown
give me something


also give me tab bbcode you f-
