Survivor: Nexus {Over! Congrats Karass!)

As time goes on people will be able to ID others better, and I'm sure trends will eventually form that people try to work around (stuff like how I have a tendency to blindside Radja). But what can you do? You can't avoid casting each and every one of those combinations. Mods can only do so much. I mean, mods can try to keep players from meeting early in the game through how tribes are formed, but that only does so much in a world where half of tribes are picked by the players.

I've literally only ID'd Drench once in...uh...three games where we interacted a decent amount?

But holy shit he was SO obvious in Nexus.

[D3f3nd3r]

Wait no I did ID him in Eon.

I ID'd him in GoT off his use of the word "noo" and in Eon because the RL issues he shared with me there timed really similarly to the RL issues that he had been sharing with me as a player in BOTB.

Exactly, I don't know what can be done about it save for keeping people apart until merge (which doesn't exactly work well with the evolutions to the game that I mentioned), not casting pairs, and NEW CREATIVE THINGS. Somebody needs to think of the NEW CREATIVE THINGS!

see: the entire LoL jury

Four to five people there were essentially stating their usernames.

the entire LoL jury

That one was literally the perfect storm of IDability, but it's also important to note that it didn't really impact how any of us played.

I mean, Matty in the jury thread pretty much said "yay I love med school!"

[D3f3nd3r]

For example, there are a decent number of people (myself included) who are IDable based on writing style.

Yeah

[D3f3nd3r]

I maintain that beyond a point, what can be done?
