#1295, "New command: Cabalwars"
|
Syntax: cabalwars
This will show the current membership numbers of the various cabals throughout Thera. It will also show you their current influence in the Realm based on how often they hold their item of Power. Influence is tracked weekly, and is reset every Sunday. So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Neat addition, but here are some additional suggestions concerning this change:
Can you add Grinning skulls to the item takers list? They are able to hold items too. Also, you could mention in the helpfile which is the taker and which is the cabal the item was taken from.

Let me see how easy this is to do...
>Also, you could mention in the >helpfile which is the taker and which is the cabal the item >was taken from.
Updated the helpfile: In the ITEMS TAKEN section, each row is how many times that cabal has taken another cabals item. Each column is how many times that cabal has lost their item.
So long, and thanks for all the fish!

I doubt we'll be putting any sort of PK tracking in the game that is available like that. So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Since these two aren't actually in the Cabal it gives a false impression of how many people are really in the Cabal. Any chance we can get their number in parenthesis instead of as part of the real caballed number? That which does not kill us, makes us stronger.

I disagree that these two aren't actually in the Cabal. Including these numbers is more accurate than not including them. So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Are they really in if they can't retrieve? Can village applicants even get into the village? I'm not saying leaving them out complete, but maybe put both real members and wannabes. That which does not kill us, makes us stronger.

They can hear the cabal channel, they know when a raid is happening, they are definitely part of the cabalwars. So long, and thanks for all the fish!

>Just wanted to ask, when you say it's tracked weekly and >reset... are the results we are shown calculated live or the >results of 'last weeks' cabalwars?
The influence & members is live. On Sunday when it resets, everyones influence will be at 100%, and start to degrade as the cabals don't retain their items.
So when it's Friday and you see: EMPIRE 42 64 % You know that Empire has been getting whomped on this week.
>Will the commands output >then only be changing every Sunday, when the score slate is >cleaned?
Nope
>Is there a difference in the way 'members' is judged, and >'influence' calculated that might help us understand what the >numbers mean?
Members is all the mortals in a cabal (including applicants for Battle, and Bloodoaths for Empire).
Influence is purely based on cabal item in cabal altar starting Sunday at midnight.
So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Mind to change it so it would track last 7 days, not only the days after a sunday? I think it will be hard to make assumptions when influence goes down each day after sunday .

Will there be changes to make this something more than cosmetic? (i.e. benefits relative to cabal)

The veil doesn't already help the current topdog in the magic war. Lets make it so that the current topdog is always benefitted even further! "New payment options w/ Iron Realms"

When we've talked about the cabalwars and how to improve it. Giving the person who is on top even more power is something we've stayed away from. All you will do is give the team in power an easier way to stay in power and the underdog an even harder time to get back in power. So long, and thanks for all the fish!

A system of minor reward for the top cabal and a bit of help for the lesser cabal. Something like...
Respect/Fear of the powerful. Sympathy for the underdog.
The help would be minor in both cases, but could be something like a discount at shops for the powerful, and a chance for the underdog to gain an extra item. (If you're the underdog, you could go to a store that would possibly have sympathy for your cause and there's a chance they might give you two return potions instead of one). Or maybe your cabal shop would charge you less. I don't know. Would add something interesting to the mix without making the powerful more powerful.

Would that honestly make you go out and try and retrieve your item or take another item? I don't really feel like that adds anything to the cabalwars.
So long, and thanks for all the fish!
