Wait, what happens to your money when you die? we need to set up some kind of bank here.

I am willing, for the greater good of the people, to be the banker entrusted with our fallen compatriot's funds. You're all welcome.

Well, I don't know for sure because DBD hasn't elaborated yet, but I would think that dead people money would disappear. The only system I could think of that would work would be a) for one person, nominated by the thread, to hold funds during the night and redistribute them the next day. this person would be obviously protected by a doc as possible. b) everyone sending funds to one of two people nominated by the thread, who would then redistribute the following day. this would force scum to try and kill one of those players, thus allowing us to have some kind of influence over the night kills. best case scenario scum say "gently caress that" and we get to keep our money. actually i think the second system might be a really really good idea. I nominate kumbo and ernie. i want to see what the store looks like before this happens though.

Whoever is the consensus for the money is probably gonna get whacked. Plus I don't trust us to not pick a scum by accident

Yeah, that seems like a recipe for sadness. Last game I was in had a role that let the scum punch through protections. Even if everything went well it seems like we'd just be setting ourselves up for heartache.

Magnus Gallant posted:Whoever is the consensus for the money is probably gonna get whacked. Plus I don't trust us to not pick a scum by accident Presuming a role that goes through doc protection seems specious at best KB. Here's why this is a good idea: If a player dies in the night, whatever money they had is lost is addition to any future funds they would receive. This is bad! I am guessing, having not seen the shop yet, but I feel strongly that money could be a huge edge. Obviously there is some potential for abuse, but not as much as it might seem! If we all give our funds to one of two players, that allows us to exert a huge amount of pressure over the nightkill. Scum don't want us to get powers so they want to keep that money from recirculating back into the town. However whoever they target might not have much money at all, or they might be doc protected since the doctor has a strong incentive to protect one of those two. It's puts them into a very difficult position where they have to choose between using their kill suboptimally or allowing town to hold onto their cash. Say that a scum does end up holding onto the funds, if they don't give it back that makes a lynch easy. Even if that scum dumps the funds to another player, I think scum would probably get diminishing returns from powers as compared to town. Honestly influencing the nightkill is worth it alone imo. If there was some way to enforce participation it would be even stronger. Maybe if each banker confirms how many deposits they've received before thread close and then they scramble it by sending cash back and forth between each other?

in reality what somberbrero is suggesting is bad for town because a) it forces town to come to consensus for yet-another-vote b) it gives scum much more direction c) it endangers the most trustworthy people in the town when they hold all that money

Ernie. posted:in reality what somberbrero is suggesting is bad for town because D) And the whole thing may be moot anyway, since depending on the stock and pricing of the store items, it is possible there really won't be a worthwhile amount of money leftover at the end of a day. I'm feeling like this is being built up way more than it has any potential of fulfilling as a mechanic. Prove me wrong DBD!

Ernie. posted:in reality what somberbrero is suggesting is bad for town because a) you mean it forces people to play the game, yes. b) that's good though! it's town making a choice that the scum have to respond to. c) so don't give it to the trustworthy people. give it to the shittiest. use a lottery system. go down the player list. doesn't matter, also the point is that it doesn't really endanger those people because it's a poo poo proposition for scum to guess. i know that most people probably won't participate but the puzzle of how to best use our cash is interesting to me and i think it could be really beneficial.

What if a scum gets the money from everyone then instead of giving it back they claim they got it stolen. Or scum have a watcher they watch the person holding the money, bam they know who the doc is.

I'm doubtful of (A) since money stealing doesn't make much sense without a heavily fleshed out currency system and DBD didn't even acknowledge money transfers until I explicitly asked. I don't think (B) even makes sense. Therevote, vote Meinberg.
