August 29, 20186 yr Also, looking over the rules, good call on discouraging using the artist that was used for each nation last time. Wouldn’t want that, so much that I’d almost think about making it a hard rule. Seems well researched.
August 29, 20186 yr Also, looking over the rules, good call on discouraging using the artist that was used for each nation last time. Wouldn’t want that, so much that I’d almost think about making it a hard rule. Seems well researched. Does this extend to discouraging recycling the artist that the country itself sent to the first Masquerade? (e.g. not wanting people to send FM-84 for South Danaelanda as well as Jadakissnia). I guess as long as this is just 'recommended' and not a hard rule I will include those in the updated songs of thread but I'll put them in italics or something ~
August 29, 20186 yr I don't think it should be a hard rule, in case you got a country that really doesn't fit you and that might be the only artist that works, but I think people should only do it if there's absolutely nothing else which in most cases probably wouldn't happen. Hopefully in most cases unless there was absolutely nothing else people would avoid it anyway without being too strict about it. There's some countries where I'd really struggle to have more then one or two options, hopefully the odds are I get a good match but I guess that's luck of the draw. Genuinely don't know what on earth I'd do for one or two countries so hopefully the 1 in 30-40 chance is slim enough :kink:

Largely because I think there were so few used in the last one. I don't imagine it'd be a big thing but imo I'd rather have a different set of artists from last time for the most part.
August 29, 20186 yr Yeah there was only one artist actually used from a spinoff last time haha. Might be more this time though, you never know x
August 29, 20186 yr Author Here's another thing, would people mind too much if they happen to be given the same country that they got last time? And when I do the countries to numbers thing, what happens if someone selects their own country??
August 29, 20186 yr If someone picks their own you discreetly swap it out for another country. Use random.org to pick which unselected country to swap numbers with
August 29, 20186 yr Here's another thing, would people mind too much if they happen to be given the same country that they got last time? If that were to happen to me, I'd ask for a new country, just cos it would be more interesting that way!

If that were to happen to me, I'd ask for a new country, just cos it would be more interesting that way!thanks, some more opinions on this one please. I'd rather have it so people can't ask for a different country though so either anyone can get the same country and has to deal with it or no-one can get the same country.
August 29, 20186 yr I think just re-roll if someone gets the same country as last time personally, I doubt many people would want the same country again even if it was a really good one for them.
August 29, 20186 yr Yeah I'd personally want to re-roll if I get the same country as last time for variety sake.
