Bounty System Expansion - Positive Voodoo casts

Postby Lockreed » Sat Feb 20, 2016 5:53 pm

Could we expand the bounty system payouts for voodoo to include the trade enhancement cards (East/West, dutch, english, spanish, favorable winds, etc)?

Also gold paying voodoo such as Pouch of gold, forced labor, military service.

I know a lot of players who pay in coin for others to cast these on them, and this would allow it to be automated through bounty payouts:
1). Create a bounty (voodoo cast) on myself
2). Set a payout
3). If others want coin instead of credit for their voodoo cards, they can cast on me and I pay them out through the bounty

Perhaps such thing is not really called a bounty? I believe it would need a other name... More like a Wish List, No?

Or, the Bounty's get sorted in Links/Pages...

" Offensive Bounty's/Defensive" ?

You are right, it should be named something else other than bounty or sorted in a different manner than the real bounties.

I know that a scripted system would increase supply and demand and would perhaps make more people happy.

But this game's fun is mostly coming through real user interaction. Adding scripted systems for everything limits this. Right now, people will post in guild boards and forums for such requests. This is something we want to help. We want to see more similar requests. A scripted system would be against this.

Also, let's not forget about banks which make some profit on send payments feature. They also help in catching probable cheating. It's a good system the existing one, I would prefer we maintain it.

I agree on one point that interaction is important we could make it similiar to posts on forum so instead of me opening new topic make it like bounty list with simple sentence for example Wolfie needs EJ cards for more info contact him. Forum would be clear from such requsts and on forum we could discuss suggestions,problems and game changes...
And interaction between players would increase...

Forums are not a place to contact with admins as it usually happens. There are many usages and perhaps the most important for the average user,is the Union of Honor. With time, this will be the main forums usage. There are many people interested for Union of Honor topics. They may not comment but the stats show that they are very interested in them. More than all the other topics.

I read all topics uninformed person is stupid person in my opinion because informations are most important resource.
I still believe that something like this would increase interaction even more if it doesn't happen that's still ok world will still spin, sun will shine,rain will fall and birds will fly

I believe one simple modification will reduce 'crank' bounties and perhaps concentrate minds more : once published, the bounty is not recoverable by the proposer : If I offer up 1 mil for actions against another player, if they are not done by the due date, the coin is NOT returned to me but lost. there is also a fair chance proposers will then offer realistic amounts for what they want done.
