A poll to see what people think today about the change from 3 worms to 5 worms in singles TTRR (3 years ago). How many worms is optimal for TTRR, 3, 4 or 5? Also, should singles and clanner have the same number of worms per player like they had before?
Both singles and clanner TTRR were played with 3 worms per player until 2013. Since the experimental season we've had 5 worms per player in singles but still 3 worms per player in clanner. Now there's a difference because in singles you need to make 1 time with 5 worms while in clanner you need to make 1 time with 3 worms. At least some people would like to make singles and clanner more similar again (if not equal).
Said on the subject:
- more worms makes variance between turns less of a factor (eliminates "luck")
- more worms rewards the fastest, not the safest player
- with more worms you can take more risks
- less worms causes pressure -> rewards the player who can perform under pressure
- less worms gives turn order advantage to the player who goes second (when the 1st player plops his worms)
- clanner with 5 worms takes too long
- singles with 3 worms is very fast
Select your favorite from the 5 options. You can select 2 options to ensure that at least your 2nd favorite wins the poll (you can also add/remove your 2nd vote later based on the poll situation).
