Suggested Change to FC and OH

Post by Lagmatic » Wed Aug 27, 2003 12:11 am

I suggest the following change will benefit everybody in the FC and the OH.

If any person has a toon in the FC and OH that is above 126, then that person may be excused from making quota IF he places a toon near to the bottom of the FC/OH, and that toon continues to make a reasonable quota. (perhaps 2X). In any question of passing of the higher toon, his quota % would be considered to be the quota % of the lower toon. The lower toon may not opt to 'pass' anybody until he removes his upper toon from the chain.

This has many advantages.

-Far more pusher XP, everybody levels faster.
-You end up with more than one powerful usable toon.
-Moves the heavy XP hitters back to pushing status.

This has a disadvantage:

-You didn't think of it before me, so you'll whine. =)

If it was approved, and worked like this, I'd do it.

And peeps know I can crank the levels when it so suits me.

only difference is now is easier than ever to make quota even at OH level. Back in the day 6 mill took four or so hours in a great fellow. That can be done in an hour in a mediocre fellow.

To be very frank here....I see this as a means for anyone higher up in the chain to sit back and no longer play their high lv characters. If they prefer to play other characters then move these slackers to the CC. There is no quota requirement in CC except to get your pincers every 3 weeks...surely these characters can manage that without failing or preventing them from playing other toons or even on playing on other worlds.

I fail to see how having a lower character pushing xp's should excuse you from making xp on your higher level toon.......shouldn't we ALL be pushers no matter where we are in the chain?

You don't understand the point of taking somebody who just pushes 10 people at the top of the chain, and turning them into someobdy who pushes the entire chain?

There's one problem inherent to doing that Lag. If you get too many people to do this and the XP will be sucked out of the top of the chain.
