Alaska Opinion Poll

[hakisaki]

The jump hole from NY to Alaska is there for a reason, so that LSF players can get through to Alaska. If we're going to talk about changes to the structure of the game, we've got to talk to the Admin about it first. Bickering on here won't make game changes happen.

In the meantime there is still a problem. The fact that nobody is supposed to get through doesn't matter if the gate isn't protected in some way.

I'm gonna suggest this again here since the other thread has degenerated into bickering about Mollys.

The LSF make an actuall code known only to their own members. This is an actual code, checked by a guard who has a list of all valid codes printed out or written down. LSF posts guard(S) to keep people out from NY side. If someone wants to go through, they have to know the code. If they go through without it, it's OORP unless they could concievably hack it in RP, in which case it should be Roleplayed for at least a few slow minutes.

Suggested Guidelines for how this would work:
LSF keep the code(S) and are free to give it/them out as the high command sees fit.
Anyone with an up to date code may pass through the gate, no questions asked
Anyone who doesn't gets killed no questions asked
If an LSF dies after learning the code is compromised but before alerting allies, no alert is allowed until that code is changed. (Dead men tell no tales)

Other players can get the code by
a) actually intercepting it from the LSF(Hacking into the list online or whatever, I think that is worthy enough to be considered roleplay)
b) convincing someone to give them the code in RP in game

If a player dies before passing on the code to another in game, that player is not allowed to tell anyone the code until they find it again. (Dead men tell no tales)

The reason I single out LSF and not liberty Navy is because Navy is not in charge of national security, the Security Force is. I don't think Navy ought even to be allowed into the sector. Do you think the united states navy is allowed into CIA headquarters? I dobt it. (Or british navy into MI6 if you roll that way). If the LSF isn't up to the job (Frown) then the navy or police force could take over.

I see it thus: If you expect roleplay from the criminals, then expect roleplay of yourselves. Post guards, make the code, and kill anyone you see go in without it. Lane Hackers are the only ones I know of who qualify to actually hack the gate and that should take a few minutes of print screened roleplay, and at that only when the gate is left completely unguarded, in which case nobody would notice anyways. I posted a nicer summary in the other thread, if you care.

If a solid set up is decided upon, whatever it is, I'll support it, but we need to think first of ways we can fix the problem before we talk about how to make the Admin fix it for us. As I see it they're none too fond of NY now and unlikely to do us any favors by editing Alaska. Remember, they're people too, not machines that exist to code at our bidding. Coding is hard, even "little" edits like that take time.
