Point scoring has been adjusted slightly - super-happy savages now score ~1 point less per day, and unhappy savages will cost you up to 1 point per day.
Killing another savage in a fight will net you lots more points than the rather pathetic 25 you used to get.
The "Drink Tea" order has been capped, so savages will only be able to get up to a certain amount of happiness from it.

Awesome! Everyone was getting way too happy.

Reset all happiness to 1 bar ?

humbug
I hate fighting and love happy

The happiness thing was getting a bit out of control, so putting a cap on it is a pretty good idea. However, I don't think there's enough players this run (especially as breeding seems to be fairly rigorously reined in) to make a bonus for kills have much of an effect. There just aren't going to be enough savages in the game.

Edit: Also, I thought it was already something like 500 points for a kill, anyway?

Nah, it was 25 to 50.

Bah...make love, not war
Fine though...I will just have all 70 of my builders build leather underpants then.

I have an idea...what about savages that remain "unnamed" cannot accumulate any points at all?

i hate unnamed savs...

70 builders, brilliant! I wondered how you were catching up so many points over the last week or so. Nice one, wish I'd thought of it.



Seconded.

Actually, why not just totally revamp the scoring system? It's always struck me as a bit odd that as long as the savs are happy, it's fairly unimportant what they're actually doing. Obviously happiness is a good thing and should be rewarded, but it shouldn't be the overriding scoring factor that it always has been.

Ok, I may have exaggerated a wee bit with "70" builders, but I do have quite a bit. I am needing more Miners to keep up with them all and the fact that I am barely breeding here, has me at a stand-still.

I do have to say though my builders have been very happy until today. They do like to drink tea.

Aye, I've converted my builders into builder-miners, but there's only three of them so the whole mine-stuff build-stuff project's going a bit slowly. Still, I'm building up an excellent supply of gimp masks, which I'm sure will prove useful in the latter stages of this run.
