Picture game challenge time
As promised and due to complaints (do the complaints ever stop?) on it now being too short (before it was that there wasn't any enforcement on a time limit), I am having a poll on what most people feel is a proper time limit for the challenges.
The whole reason is that the ORIGINAL game rules put a time limit of 24hrs. We never actually followed that rule because even from the beginning it was felt that it was just too short. Also since that original game was meant to have a winner earning a prize they had more reason for the short time frame. We however are just trying to have fun and go explore. I had suggested a time frame of 3 days for normal riding season and 1 week for off-season. Most seemed to agree. However, it seems that this is still not satisfactory and some feel it is too short. Since we do NOT want the game stalling again for weeks/months on end and coming close to being forgotten like it almost was a couple of times, we all have at one point or another agreed there needs to be a time limit. So what do you feel is a good limit to keep the game moving but also allow enough time for the challenge to be met? I left it open to 15 days (that's the max amount of slots a poll can be) and allowed for you chose more than one option. If you do chose more than one please clarify your options as to why. This is the only way I can think of to truly give people what they want. |

Voted for 3 days. I think outside of winter, that should be plenty of time to allow people to get a picture without completely freezing up the game. I also think it should be slightly longer DURING the winter since some have to deal with snow and ice....just my

I voted for 2 days. I was excessively annoyed to check the picture game for 5+ days straight to find that no one had gotten the challenge. I feel like 1 day is too short and 3 days is pushing it. With the amount of forum members we have, we should easily be able to get any reasonable challenge within 2-3 days.

3 days should be enough IMO. But people take these games too serious, lighten up its suppose to be so people can get out and ride and see new things.

There's no reason three days shouldn't work for everyone. There's no reason a person can't fit the picture game into their forty-hour work-week with their daily commute. Especially if they're supposed to ride a hundred miles out of their way to find a waterfall or something. And if there's no daylight to take the picture when they get there, that just means they should have called in sick so that they could get it. Yeah, three days is more than enough. Who cares about work scedules, or school, or family? If you're playing the picture game, everything else should be secondary!
I voted for seven (7) days.

I'm quite fond of the current challenge time limit. I think if I don't get the challenge in 3 days then I'm just not putting my heart into it! A week when the player count goes down (during winter) sounds good to me too.

So, if the time limit for the challenge, the one that you can get the perfect picture for, expires before you get a day off, then that's too bad. Got it. Have fun with the game.

Question: What happens if a challenge isn't met within the allotted time? Is it game over?

Okay, I'm gonna have to join in on the fun even though all I got is a race bike. Prolly will just load it on the back on my truck and drive around like a tool taking pics.
So, is the pic thread still going on? We should start a new one for 2012. Someone who has "A" on ignore list start the thread so he can't post in that thread.

3 days on season and 7 days off season sound perfectly reasonable for me. If you have time to ride your bike, you should have a minute or two to jump off snap a picture and move on. If the challange doesn't happen to be something you can grab on your normal route? That's fine, pass and wait for one that is.

I gave up on that game tbh, too much bitching and too many damn rules. It became a joke. If there has to be a limit then 7 days should be it. One full week from the time posted.

I love the "too many damn rules" when all you're complaining about is the enforcement of ONE rule. Please stop sounding like a silly little kid with this frustration over ONE rule enforcement by making it sound like we've added in tons of rules when it's a lie.

Eat a bag of dicks, don't ever call me a silly kid. There was more then one rule called into question inthat game at one point people wanted sample pictures and other random crap. The entire game has turned into a joke.

I totally think you should make your own pic game thread if you think you can do it better. If you succeed and draw everyone else away from the current thread then that's great: everyone wins. More love, less petite arguments!! |

I didn't call you anything, I said to stop sounding like one which you are sounding like one again. I tell the truth as I see it. You continue to complain in a way that sounds like a silly little kid throwing a tantrum. The time limit was asked to be enforced by the players in order to keep the game moving for more players. Please tell me what rules you think have been added since "so" many new rules are in place? The only people turning it into a joke are people like you and "A" with attitudes like these.

I am not trying to compete with or take over jack in this game or any other one, a poll was put up and opinions were asked for. I gave mine and was insulted because of it. Did I shoot back an insult of my own, I sure did but truth is if you don't insult me i won't insult you, not a hard concept to grasp. The whole this is how we want it take it or leave it with out objectively listening to people and there ideas is a bit heavy handed and over regulated tbh but hey as you stated it is YOUR game so it's all good. |

First, I went back a realized that was the first of you complaining in this thread, so for that I apologize. However I will not apologize for the false accusations of too many rules which you have yet to even answer. I also won't apologize for calling you out on your current behavior of acting like a kid with this whole "eat a bag of dicks" which I'm sure is borderline for the forum rules. Again I did not call you anything but referred to the way you are acting. Please learn the difference between name calling and describing a persons attitude/actions. If you are done being immature then would you finally answer the question of what other rules you seem to think have been added? Or is it just the enforcement of the time limit that is making you lash out unnecessarily? |

You are right akima. I'm just tired of hearing from a select few of how all these new rules (that no one seems to know of other than them) have ruined the game.

So what you are saying is you knew before hand I was going to tell you to eat a bag of dicks with some sort of ESP. As far as I can tell you insulted me with the acting like a child comment based on something that was an incorrect assumption on your part. You then went on to say I am a joke and called me a child again based on an incorrect assumption by you but say your original insult is ok because I insulted you back? I see you are trying to twist it that your child and joke comment were not insults but FFS, man up dude, don't bitch out of it with smooth talk and semantics, the people here are smarter then that and see through that bullshit. At least I have the balls that when I insult a person to not try an hide afterwards. Oh and just for shits and giggles, your insult started all this crap, if you don't call people children they won't tell you to eat a bag of dicks. Pretty simple. Now go back to that bag and leave me the **** alone ok? |

Well I tried, but I guess some people would rather stay immature and not even answer a simple question.
So far it looks as if the majority of players like the current time setup. So for now it looks as if there is no reason to change the 1-week time limit for challenges. Sometime in March I'll make a new poll again about the time limit. This poll has served it's purpose and may be closed at any time. |
