Rookies are FAULTED

12thSep 1, 2011 by Indie
imageI'm not sure if you have noticed, but in rookies the new players are typically targeted first. Why? I for one cannot think of any other explanation than pre-mades. Yes, you can say the “newbies” didn't play hard enough, and they could have preserved their fate by doing so. That is true. However, it is nearly impossible. They haven't played games enough to win veto (practice makes perfect), and they haven't been on the site long enough to have a powerful pre-made. So inevitably, they are bound to lose their 15T - which was likely all we had.

How can this be fixed? I feel that rookies would drastically be improved if they were split into two sub-categories: games for black level and above, and games for brown level and below. By doing so, the newer players will be able to salvage their T’s by playing with people under the same situation... and can potentially improve their overall gaming ability. If this were to happen, everyone (VIP levels included) would be forced to play a much harder and dynamic game, which is what Big Brother is all about.

agreed! a lot of people just nom noobies to avoid getting blood on their hand, cuz nobody else in the game will care if a newbie is nommed or not

Good point, but every High level has been in there shoes, when they were Newbies.

Wouldn't work at all! People would still join the brown and below games with premades

To keith:
Yes, people would still join with pre-mades... there is no way to get around that. However, the new players would have a better shot against them then a pre-made full of blood levels.

I dont think they should necessarily be split because then lower levels would rarely befriend higher levels, but maybe there could be a blind enrollment, so premades wouldnt know how many spots are left or if there is another premade present.

Great Idea.

i don't really agree, it does take a few "failed" rookies games to get to know people and build relationships, i think slow rookies has helped so people actually get time to talk rather than just spam and support their premades. Some games definitely have premades which make it harder, you just have to be careful which ones you join :D

Yes, slow rookies have helped but it is still blatantly clear that the first people targeted in games are the newbies.
Sent by Indie,Sep 1, 2011
yeah newbies always targeted especially in rookies and slow castings
Sent by danio,Sep 1, 2011
About competition practice. I actually find that kinda wrong considering if a newbie has any common sense or listens to people, they will play Slow Castings until they are above average at competitions.
