Thread: 3 dropped player bounty missions = 24 hours till you can pick up a new mission
shielding makes it impossible to take their mission....putting a timer on new missions after dropping a set number of missions makes it impossible to shield....actually forcing people who otherwise were immune into the BH mechanic, again, I don't think you understand what shielding is

removing the names pretty much prevents shielding, that isn't that big a deal..........
because it only stops one bh from killing one jedi....the limit on dropped missions hurts no one except those that abuse the system to selectively target...there is a 3 day window on any BH mission...if someone's in a house or on kashyyyk...they will leave eventually, and you have your chance then, if theylog off, they will be back, again, there is your chance...if you prefer to drop it and pull another target, you can do so, you justcannot do so indeffinatly until you get a specific target or type of target without sitting out for a bit.

how about a maximumlimit of killing a jedi 1-3 times a day depending on their level, after all with your way you're not stopping the jedi from being ganked all day long, you are only stopping the aBH from hunting.

ok then if i kill you, you can't use your lightsaber for 3 days
all those who's name you dont see on the terminal...theyre shielding...far more common than you may suspect

how often do people "sheild", really? while this can limit the chance it harms other honest BHs

yes so after publish 20 each jedi is going to have 3 of his friends go through all the hassle of getting his mission and then they'll have to do it every 3 days. you do realize how ridiculous that sounds right?

ok then if i kill you, you can't use your lightsaber for 3 days
and if i kill you you can't clone or be res'd...fair trade.
now, go back and reread, or don't, as it appears your stating you will be abusing selective targeting.

i read what you're saying, you say i should spent 72 consecutive hours online waiting for a jedi to leave kashyyyk or a house.

your choice, but during that 72 hours, you could instead pull 8 other missions, either way you have a good chance at a target, and very little potential to be shielded against or abuse the mechanics for your own purposes
how could i pull 8 missions? under your system i'd be penalized for dropping the first mission. your plan is obviously flawed and pretty much completely unnecessary.
AHAH you didn't read....go back, starting with the OP and read every single post from there
p.s. take a look at the title of the thread too eheh

Generally, it's not just his plans that are flawed...
