I have been thinking a couple of issues that were pointed out in a previous blog that might cause the duel to fail.
- "It literally never filled" Kaseyhope101
- "Yeah, that's because the people who always won would wait until it was 6/7 filled to join and shit on everyone else." RiDsTeR
- the unenroll button
Randomize I think you should consider doing some major changes to the duel as it is the most asked game that indicates it is popular and numerous users have joined after you removed the game from enrollment that is curious to play it.
My suggestions:
- I think you should have 5 slow games running at a time. (As the game hardly fills if too many are played)
- The 3 finalists should be temporarily blocked from enrollment until 5 games have been finalized (to prevent the same winners from playing every single game; just like hunger and stars).
- Maybe have 2 games for users light green to black base don their level. Also, the other 3 games for Veteran users silver to tv star.
- The game should still cost 25T$ with half the payout of hunger (1st: 75K-150T$; 2nd: 40K-100T$; 3rd: 25K-80T$; 4th: 10K-60T$; 5th: 5K-40T$; 6th: 0K-25T$)
- Remove the unroll button as people kept enrolling/unenrolling themselves from the game and games take longer to fill.
- Add health elements for challenge time like frookies (users cannot die), and maybe apples can appear in messages. Each challenge could take between 0 - 10% health and maybe a slight chance the player surviving the duel can get some health back or give a user poison to lose sometime. Users could start with 70 health.
- The main problem I believe is that the same players that get final 3 make premades and win every game which gives users who are decent at challenges less of a chance of going far with different players.
People who are tv stars suck at challenges too. If there's any differential it should be determined by challenge scores. But it would be very difficult for that to happen
LittleMix , well Zwooper has an option on profiles for users to see their highest scores. Maybe Randomize can add a feature to keep record for high scores on challenges. Based on all challenges, you could be placed in noob duel (below average) or advanced duel (above average).
