I wish...

[Tharnduil]

I wish that when you started a new game the amount of points you could win or lose was fixed. I don't mean like the tournaments where you pay in to play. I think the system of higher levels losing more points and lower levels gaining more points is good and the best situation for the site. However, I would love it if when the game started it calculated the points you would lose or win. based off of the players and held it at that level.
Perhaps this is just a small thing but it frustrates me to look at some of my games and see that I have been eliminated but because the game isn't over yet I continue to give greater and greater level of points.
Again not a major fix but it would be nice to know that when I started a game my points are locked from the start of the game not fluctuating based on the timing of the end of the game.

Perhaps I am alone in this out cry, but it would just be more reassuring when i started a game to know what type of loss i was in for.

I thought it was already that way? Like the points are calculated based on however many points you had at the start of a particular game? Maybe it's not, but that was my impression anyway. Someone who knows for sure will weigh in sooner or later.

that has definitely been suggested before and will most likely be implemented in the new game engine (I hope)

I agree that the start of the game should be the benchmark for the points gained and lost, not the end as it is currently - meaning that players can gamble and delay wins because they have some losses impending etc.

can anyone like create that type of game? I agree with you

CURRENTLY

- The game determines points won and lost based on the players points when the game ends
- If a player's score changes during a game, sometimes it works in your benefit, sometimes it doesn't....

NEW GAME ENGINE

- The amount of points won/lost for each player will be determined by the player's score at the start of each game
- This is fixed and will not change regardless of what happens to a player's level during the game.
