Has there ever been a succesful contest/experiment city | Started by: Johnny-McIver on Nov 20, '18 07:54 |
Those contests/experiments that have pop up every once and a while over the years with some interesting than others but they came down to the idea of allowing people to try their hand at being a CL and also repopulate a city. In the history of MR has that ever worked out and didn't end with Bloodshed? |

They’re usually pretty successful at being target practice | |

Twice that I can think of. Once with deadly sin and the other with Cletuskasady | |

There's always bloodshed there, in reality that's the whole premise. Survival of the fittest and in this case the fittest was always the biggest gun and strongest defence. Yes, experimental cities will have periods of calm as an alliance of like-minded people come together but something is bound to happen to disrupt that. Personally, I think they're a good distraction particularly in periods of calm and peace. :) |

I vote for another experiment city - they’re always fun to watch | |

I'm still waiting for bacon island to be honest. That would be a guaranteed success ! |

Uhh LA was a free city when Bobby_Munson got control of it, along with Scottie and Olympia. Became an official city after a war or something I can't remember. But yes, it's worked once or twice. That LA survived until the entire regime of the game changed(think every city got wiped or half wiped) so that's about as good as any city can get. |

PS- I don't think I've seen it work with someone who's legitimately a first time CL/doesn't know people who know people. |

There was a time that Las Vegas was set up as a deathmatch city- in which Animal (Rinaldi) won out and had control for over a month, I believe. Which back then was a significant regime. |

What is considered success to begin with?
That said. I think we're due for another one of those cities. Sounds like fun :) |

My five time with a LA crew ... umm, ended. Days away from a crew myself at one point. There is much I would like to say, but I digress. I agree with Dusty, would like to see one, at least once. |

The 2010 Las Vegas experiment. Easily the most exciting era of this game | |

Define successful. Disorder’s reign started on the “free city” experiment by roboakheart, if I am not mistaken. While Fitzchivalry kind of assumed the lead in Vegas, he was shot and Disorder took over. He pretty well conquered the game and what stopped him was a DD. A lot of people (including myself) were pretty mad at him though. |
