Double brofist

[Jasede]

Users that have been registered for 3 years or longer should have their brofists be twice as strong.
I think it'd be fun and make newer members jealous.

I know you can't resist butthurt.

I think it depends more on the person receiving the brofists if there's enough room for two fists at the same time.

Would this mean that Commissar Draco would brofist half as much in the Politics forum because he would meet his daily brofist quota twice as quickly?

Edit: Actually, scratch that. He's a month away from the 3 year mark. But still, that's soon.

Each year of registration should add +1 fist power.

 

[Menckenstein]

Each year of registration should add +1 fist power.

You really want to potentially give Rex that much power?

 

[King Crispy]

How about we finally get rid of the whole stupid brofisting thing altogether?

Fixed.

I propose a fist power progression based on the following algorithm:

1) power starts at 0, so newfags have no fisting privileges when they start
2) each registration year means +1 to the ratio
3) each brofist received adds +0.002 to the ratio
4) the final value is rounded to the nearest integer

Let's use this simple algorithm and compute Jasede's fist power:
he has 9 years of registration and 2502 brofists, thus, his brofist power is 9x1+2502x0.002=9+5.004=14.004, resulting in a fist power of 14.

Rounded up doesn't work the way you think it works.

OK, fixed the writing error for you.

there needs to be a way to diablerize oldfags to lower your generation and increase your fisting power.

That's what the +2 to your ratio per each 1000 received brofists is for. We could tweak it to be more than just +2, but I think that anything past +5 is a bit excessive. A well orchestrated brofist harvesting campaign can lower your generation significantly and make everyone beneath your fists.

Infinitron would rule us all. There should be some kind of diminishing returns curve, so that you need quadratically or exponentially more brofists for the same increase in fisting power.

But that would also mean there would be less incentive to have more brofists. COMMUNISM!liberals

I am creating an inflationary death spiral in brofists.

I think giving brofists a chance to fail would be a better idea! Just imagine the excitement you'd feel every time you clicked the button! Will it work? Will this great post get from me the recognition it deserves?
And you would gradually feel more important every year as more and more of your fistings are successful!

:D

Also, there could be a very small chance your brofist will fizzle out and watchwitz you or even permanuke your account.

Btw just curious - has a simple negative brofist, like "dumbfuck!" or some such, ever been implemented here?

Are you seriously asking this question?Paging DarkUnderlord! DU, Is that time of the year yet? Seems like cvv has some holes in his Codex lore.

^I remember some experiments from, what, summer last year? But those were all manners of emotes, color codes and all that. It went down in flames very quickly. But I was asking about just a single additional option, the opposite brofist or some such like that. Seems like a no-brainer to a newfag like me, was just curious why it didn't happen.

That's how it started last time.

Brace yourselves, retarded/gay/racist-fists are approaching yet again!

 

[someone else]

Can we get special random cards from getting brofists? Collecting a set of cards(possibly based on forum posters) will give bonuses to brofisting. Also allow these cards to be traded/sold for Codex Cash.

The Hitler icon was hilarious. People hitlering each other left and right was an accurate representation of the heart of the Codex.

I propose a raptor card collection. When you gather all of them, you get a surprise visit from an important Codex representative dressed as a raptor... and get mauled.

If the whim strikes DU to reemplement that multifist abomination, can we at least have :hitler:-fists renamed to führerfausts this time?

We'll also need a sexist-fist (sexifist?), or possibly a feminist-fist (femifist).

I think this concept should be extended, and the Codex should take the full step and turn into an RPG. Every year of registration gives you a level-up, and upon leveiing you can put points in different skills like Ignoring, Reporting and Brofisting.

That way people like Jasede could have already maxed Brofisting by now and have 100% chance to successfully brofist someone (85% for targeted brofisting - there are many holes to choose from you know).
