15-08 History + BIG site update!
21:22:37 - 15-08
Also, if you have a part of a family history (let's say you can only manage to write what your family did in 2.8 and 2.8a), that's fine too. Just submit it, and if we can gather more information through other sources or get the remaining versions covered by others, we'll be able to put together a great story about your family. So, all little bits can help.
As for the other site updates, kudos to the OB news geek squad!

Just create a jackpot for bookies just like they did with the original lotery and profit.
Correct answer on any bookie over a certain amount, lets say a 1mil bet, gets you a ticket to win a price that is equal to 10% of all the inputs put together, second price being 5%, third being 3%.
Payout every 48 hours or something.
The more people that play, the better the price gets. The more people that play, the better the profit gets. The higher the profit gets, the more fams care about bookies.

Is one way. But then the quick fix for the (for example) NGs popularity crisis can also be a combined jackpot. And then the Puntos. The blackjacks and roulettes. Even if it doesn't go that far, having jackpots for everything sort of takes away the uniqueness of winning one.

The game is dying.. But lets discuss bookmarkers..
Bullets, KA, family systems and other stuff is already discussed in other places. Why would we want to do it here again? Do you think people will suddenly have different opinions on it? Lots of things could use some changes, everywhere in the game. Bookmakers are no exception, and if we don't bring it up, who will?

Wouldn't that require a crewmember the whole time?
A way to cut out the crew having to confirm the outcome of the match would already speed up the process and make more games possible in a smaller timeframe. And making it possible to have an option to run 2 or 3 bets (2 is a great start too) shouldn't be hard, that's probably possible in the current format.

I think it should have a complete make-over. The current system and interface for the bookmakers just don't have any room for improvement. Multiple bets and some way to run bets quicker after another (for example with the CL, half the matches are played on Tuesday, the other half Wednesday, and then the Euro League on Thursday, as well as competition football being on Friday, Saturday and Sunday), instead of 1 match during the week and 1 in the weekend. This has to do with both the response rate of the crewmembers responsible for handling this stuff and some 24 hour rule with setting the bet.
It's outdated now, but I think it'd be well worth putting effort into redesigning the whole thing. Not just for the owners to get more profits (or more losses) but just for the fucking fun of it.

I agree. In the 2.x versions you could do everything while having 11 clicks, save luxuries like easy bullet buying (although through practice and timing this could be achieved), gambling surfing profiles. Nowadays, it takes 3 or 4 clicks to do a heist, the market is more complicated and so on.
11 is not 11 anymore ;(

750 users voted already (750 maximum votes)
Should an offline account be stronger than an online one?
Yes. 33% [248]
They should be the same. 32% [238]
No, an online account should be stronger. 29% [217]
"Yes" got the most votes, but the majority voted against it. I really hope admins interpret it this way too and we get some proper KA changes for once.

Oh. The two leading options are "From 2.5 till now" and "All of it".
Sounds like a fixed Nigerian election.

At the end of 2.4 (with Affinitas leading the Pussypact he so readily made a mockery of) Fingon started putting the family stats as we still know them today on his profile (with the nick Hawk). A few months later he started the site, which just before the "2.6 reset".

21-05 IRC quotes?

Another problem was, some quotes on fingons were, just NOT funny, plus some were in non-english language... but with the new system the un-funny quotes would be burried in a sea of minus votes, as i'm not sure a moderator-only approach could be taken to filter those. Plus it'd let those who don't have a lot of time / are new to the quotes, to see the best ones right away.

Just for the record, the quotes at Fingon worked on an approval-basis. So "we" had a whole list of quotes, but they would not be publicly visible unless a moderator or admin pressed [Approve].
Most likely Redspeert who accepted these "un-funny" quotes, and he will be reprimanded for it shortly.

99% of those were user-submitted. Feel free to scribble as much as you can, and "we" can try our best to fill in the blanks.
Even MORE suggestions
Reward families for killing 19% [70]
I wonder how that would be put into practice. Any suggestions or ideas?
