Depends on number of people cursing - may be few hours. And will be few hours for sure on next attempt (when he goes from 9 to e.g. 15).

IMO too early to say that. If you are measuring success by number of people cursed, you're using wrong metrics. The goal is to stop serial griefing, not to have a lot of players banned.

I had a break from a game for some time and finally played for few hours yesterday. I've personally encountered far less griefing than a month ago. And numbers start too look good: ~120 players peak yesterday, 135 today. Used to be 30. But that's probably combined effect of vacations, weekend, tutorial, curses causing less griefing, etc.

If we need buff later, I'd prefer to see longer pushment for repeated offenders instead of lowering the bar for all players. I.e. if you cross 10 points it takes 1 hour per point to decay. If before you go back to 0 you cross it again, it takes 2 hours per point. If you cross still again - it's 4 hours per point. That'll will stop serial griefers, minimally affecting anybody else.

you're probably right. i just really like how the cursed bubble text looks and i'm sad that i need to either beg people for 2 hours or ruin dozens of peoples games to get it, lol. not gonna grief though, so don't worry.

As more people learn that they can curse somebody, it should get easier

Scorp, you cannot curse someone that already has 10 curse tokens. I tried with Midge.
So it’s just one hour of game play as eve and then he is clean at 9.

Are you sure? From what Jason wrote you should be able to curse somebody without limit. Only when he is reborn with mark, you cannot. It's there to prevent spiral down into endless curse. If it's not like this and it always stops at 10, then it's a bug.

Let him go to 9, curse 5 times and see if it takes 1 hour or 4 hours to wean off.

Can we just make it a rule of thumb not to raise babies that refuse to speak or be named? No point in raising a potential griefer.

I wanted to suggest the same. They can cycle through lives, until they get unnamed. And lineage ban does not kick in until they've lived for 30+ minutes, so in practice they can try to be born unnamed in a town as long as they want. I've already stopped feeding unnamed kids, but lots of people still do. Last griefer stabbing people left and right I have to deal with was unnamed. Named ones were only petty thieves stealing tools from the town - they still got 6+ curses.

I'm sure. I tried to curse him after he got his 10 curses and I didn't get that special chime or whatever. Nothing happened because he was already at 10. That's the max.

That is probably for the best. Imagine having to pay off 5 hours of curse. I get that some people have a hardon for punishing peeps though so I can expect the whining <3.

Well, then it's a bug. Jason said:

jasonrohrer wrote:

Assuming that marked babies are usually killed, clearing a curse will usually involve playing as Eve for an hour. But it will depend on how badly you are cursed. If you really make an entire village mad at you, you might get 15 points in one life, meaning you have to live 5 hours before it wears off.
Furthermore, once it finally wears off, you are back to being unmarked, but you still have 9 points. That means that going back to griefing, and angering 10 people, will push you up to 19 points, requiring 9 hours of play to clear.

So, please post a bug report here then:
https://onehouronelife.com/forums/viewforum.php?id=3

Please also send replay of it happening to Jason by mail. That gets it fixed fastest.

If you don't know how:
In game directory there is "recordedGames" folder with all games played. Try to locate the correct one by date/time. Copy it to "playbackGame" folder and start the game - you will see replay of everything that happend. If you found correct replay, note down % of time in top left corner, when bug happens. Mail it to Jason. Should be fixed soon. Move the file away or delete it from "playbackGame" folder to play normally.

It's not a bug, it's how he coded it.

He's talked on multiple threads about all the possible ways he was going to implement it, where it was 15 or 20 before a player got cursed, and all of them were up in the air based on how it balanced in the game. He knows how to log into Server 12 and try to curse MidgetMaker himself if he wants to. He reads these threads.

All the bugs are coded.

I quoted the last version he posted.

Yep, but it's still faster and easier for him if you mail the replay showing it. It's one man show - help him a bit. I've already got bunch of bugs fixed this way, so I highly recommend it. If you wanna just whine on the forum, it's you choice. But it's not likely to be fixed this way. I can't post the bug report myself, 'cause I haven't seen it and I don't have the replay.
