Jailbreak "one marker lives the rest die" (and other luck based games)

[Matt]

"one marker lives the rest die" is where the warden places down markers (2-4) and types in CT chat the one that will live, and at a certain time the CTs kill everyone who is not in the marker specified by the warden. I feel like this game has evolved to be come the next "marker race", the latest variant of a "cancer" game on the jailbreak server. I think if there is 2 markers, one lives one dies, that is fine, you have a 50% to survive. When there is 3 or 4 markers your chance of surviving is lowered to 33% and 25% respectively, and this game is usually played as the last game or mid round game, meaning people who are alive have spent time in the round working to get to where they are. Having worked hard completing games in the top 50% of players only to be killed by a 25% luck game doesn't seem fair. Along side this, "AFK colours" is a 1 in 9 chance of surviving which is equally unfair and annoying to Ts who work hard only to die to this at the end.

Now what am i suggesting? We could allow this game, however you could only have 2 markers instead of 3 or 4 (AKA say luck based games need a 50% chance of winning). We could not allow this game to be played on maps that have roulette or four corners, since it is basically the same concept, and then on maps that do not have a four corners only allow it to be played like four corners would (4 markers 1 dies).

I would like to see what you guys think about this, thank you for reading.

Screw all luck based games in general, but since they aren't going away, I'm down to limit their power.

Yup, should be banned

the latest variant of a "cancer" game on the jailbreak server.

It is, should be banned

only to be killed by a 25% luck game doesn't seem fair.

It isn't fair, ban it

Game is also terrible/cancer, ban it

Maps have plenty of games on them, wardens should use them. We need to stop with these games that just have Ts sit in one spot for 2+ minutes and reduce the game to just 'Who can I take my RL issues out on???'...

I think games should be MINIMUM of 50%. If there's two markers and one marker dies and one marker lives I don't really mind it that much. But if it's more than that then I kinda care because it's just pure cancer.

+1 It wouldn’t be fun if there is 10% to win. Atleast have 50% in my opinion.

 

[TinyMuffinLord]

+0/+1 Eh, I'm not a fan of continuously adding more rules and restrictions to the game but this is not a bad idea.
I would also like to point out that map games based on luck usually have a higher than 50% survival rate. But is there any map games that have a lower than 50% survival rate and would we make exceptions?

Edit: Yes I am for this. This is a good idea

In my opinion, custom luck based games should be removed in general (Example Afk colours). I think luck based map games should be allowed but only every 2nd/3rd day.

Well i gotta say, the time i have actually been on Jailbreak and seeing this, when warden does this its because its a cancer day, and not fun. If you are the warden try not to be cancer and play as many T games as possible until LR that would be more fun, for those luck based games with the markers, will be used in cancer days So yes im going with please rule change that, since its not fun to play.

All the maps games (not sure if there's one with less) where it comes to luck its 50%-90% chance of living
Clouds roulette 50%
vipinthemix roulette 50%
couch game 80%
mla castle 4 corners 75%
9 squares 88%

Cant think of any where it's less then 50%

def +1

Sometimes being warden is harder then appears. Sometimes you are left with not much time and many t's. Being stuck in a situation where a game has been played and theres 4 minutes left, sure playing a game would be fine. That gets rid of around half, + the time of the game and +the time of transportation, and your left with minimal time, with still only half the t's left. Now you can choose to go trivia, frlr, or other games like that, and then u are STILL left with no lr time.

You may argue "be a better warden" but many things can complicate this, rebellers can never justbe stopped unless you're lucky and the ct's are attentive. Usually if there are no rebellers, i get a game through and its over by 5:30-6:15 and i do either another game, or trivia for easy lr and stuff. Honestly this game is good if u dont have much time to play any other game, as this game can kill more then half easily, maybe theyre should be a rule where:

You can't play luck based marker games with less then 10 t's alive
thats my suggestion, but who ever listens to a supposedly fake dream :/

I’m on the edge about this.
I do think it should be limited to 50% or more, but I don’t think luck based games should be removed all together. Maybe (if it’s less than 50%) make them in the same vein as opinionated games, and ask the T’s if they want to play a luck based game. For maps like obama, with not that many great games to play, I usually resort to some sort of luck based game because there’s no variety.
So, all in all, make the rules more like opinionated games or ban the less than 50% aspect of it.

I understand why Wardens use this game. Its just for fast LR. but there is no reason they should be doing a fast LR with 6 minutes left in the game. The game makes sense but if we just limit it to Time based instead of map based it would be less confusing. Add a time restriction for warden custom luck-based games to were they can only play them with 2 minutes or less remaining on overall game clock.
