QI per day time limit
Ok to get started I'm fine with the whole 100 qi per day limit. However I played a lot yesterday because I was really close to master belt. I hit the limit with 16 games left, I woke up this morning and got on so I could get it, then I discover that it's a 24 hour cool down. It should be 12 hours, that's plenty to stop farmers, and if you hit it at night you just sleep and come back to it like I was planning on doing.

Now, before mods start bringing up excuses, I just want to say It wouldn't be a restart at midnight kind of thing, it would be like it is now, 12 hours from the 100th qi being gained.
My signature was too long so I got this pretty rainbow here instead now. Isn't it nice? This is a nice rainbow.

Risk did this to me and I hate him forever, please join the official "Fuck Risk in the Ass With a Live Bat" social group to join me in hating Risk:

Well, wouldn't 150 games a day keep the farmers away, also? I see no problems in upping the limit a hair.
Chickster: I literally don't know why I did it.
If you really want to belt up fast, buy a QI booster.

Hitting the daily qi limit doesn't mean you can't play the game any more for the rest of the day.

That's not really how suggestions work. Suggestions are about adding features that add quality to the game, a lot of the time by fixing a problem that exists.

Example: the public comes and says "View Forum Leaders is really misleading, it's causing people to think GMs and other in-game orientated people are heavily involved with the forums."

^Then they provide a solution, "Change it to View Toribash Staff, as that's more accurate"


From that point, we the staff consider the idea. First we decide if we do in fact have a problem on our hands OR would this NEW feature provide something useful/fun for Toribash. If it passes that, then we say "Okay well can we do this practically?". Because Toribash isn't made of money nor does it have a huge dev team, we can't just add things simply because it'd add to the experience or people would enjoy it. The cost/work put in has to be worth the benefit and more than likely income we make from spending time on the solution/implementation. Most ideas die on that stage, because stuff like 2v2, or say bracketed multiple people playing at the same time tournaments can't work, but if it doesn't, then you have a much much larger chance of it getting implemented.



But back to this topic: it hasn't been established that the Qi limit is too low for any particular reason, so you can't really expect us to raise it. We don't implement things with the idea of "Boy I hope this doesn't cause problems". All that was said was when the OP binges on Toribash on a weekend, he hits the cap. And his proposal is "let's raise it by 20 games", which in effect means we'd be admitting that 40 games more a week is some large deal. Which it isn't. (That figure came from the fact that there's like 2 days of "weekend" and were going to assume he doesn't hit the cap on non-weekend days). As holo pointed out: hitting the Qi cap just means you're not getting closer to your next belt, but you can still play all the Toribash you'd like.


Finally:

BFG, the OP, says 100 games a day is "very low and annoying"; however, checking his account history I see he hasn't ONCE hit the 100 game in 1 day cap as far back as I can see, which is from April 10th to June 23rd.

So not only has it never effected you, or at least not more than "very rarely" as you only played more than 80 games in a day twice in that entire span, but it sure as heck can't be "very low and annoying" to you. Especially not to the degree where this requires a change.

Getting a new black belt shouldn't be quick. I have been a 10th dan for over a year now. If one could play infinite games a day, there would be elite belts! We simply cannot turn into calloftoribash (Assuming the qi for elite belt is now 100k)

Hax is 100% right. Simple logic that didn't get through into my head. This is a simple topic that will, undoubtedly, not change anything.
