Join the revolution

So I'm not really one to make threads on here. For that matter, I don't like to complain about kdice too much...it's a game...so whatever. But something has to be done, so I'm taking a stand. I'm asking that anyone that agrees follows through on my vision of a revolution and a fix to what is ruining kdice.

The verbal flagging has to stop. Kdice has become a game of chicken to not be the last to flag. Verbal flagging, more specifically, worrying about someone else verbally flagging has mandated a revision to strategy that has both sucked the fun out of kdice and made us all more concerned with proper flagging strategy than anything else.

This is the first time I've ever posted in the forums and it will likely be my last. I have been playing kdice, often too much, for years now...my career rank is 141.

I'm asking that before every game we start with a chat that says join the revolution. Until it catches on maybe we add...no flagging until it is actually available. And follow through by attacking anyone who violates by verbal flagging.

Even a resurgance of truce's would be better than this; at least then we draw sides and ACTUALLY FIGHT.

I started doing this tonight and the games were immediately better. No one likes what kdice turned into, but without group acceptance we are crippled by our opponents ability to flag to whomever they are exposed to.

Start your games with join the revolution if agree.

JOIN THE REVOLUTION!!!!!!

Agreed, and nice to see some old faces.

I started playing again casually after not playing for a long while, Jan/08 it seems.

I didn't know what was going on the first game back, and it was really a bad experience.

Did this today on a 2k table and it turned out to be a lot more fun. Only downside is that trucing seems to happen more, since when you're small you don't have any options now other than turtle and hope no one attacks you. A lot of people seem to like the idea, just gotta get most people to agree before the game starts.

Then again, I guess it won't take long for this style to right back to the truce-the-strongest-person-immediately gameplay, and it's definitely asking too much to eliminate trucing and vflagging. I guess no vflagging and getting more action going in the game is more fun than the vflagging crap.

"vflag" shouldn't even be in the kdice vocabulary. Trucing is great and was always fun times.

I agree, but players should not be removed from site for being uninformed. Let all players know what is going on. If 30 players out of 100 know about and decide to 'join the revolution' it will not work.

Please RP this link around...

I agree completely.

But I would also like to see no flags. The object is to dominate not negotiate.
