The only potential problem I see is that your two goals; attracting more participants and for the game being more competitive- seem to me almost mutually exclusive.
Reason being that we're talking about a generation raised by helicopter parents; consolation and participatory prizes, safety nets, everybody is a winner, and just general overall coddling.
They see something they don't like- their first (and often only) course of action is to whine about it.
All fuff and no gruff.
As such- to meet both of those marks would require some sorta multi-tiered, meta game of sorts.
So, lessay-
-Everyone gets a base of 3 waifus, regardless of post count of seniority.
-Longer standing members get an additional waifu slot for every 2 years they've been on here- to a maximum of 5 total waifus.
-Given waning forum activity, have the NTR deal be an opt-in. Any participants have two chances to try and NTR someone, and can only have two NTR attempts made upon them.
24 hours after the move. If the user does not step in to defend their waifu, the NTR is declared successful, and cannot be NTR'd back directly.
That means- lessay that someone gets NTR'd. Whilst the original claimer cannot NTR the girl back, somebody else can NTR her, and then he can consequently try to NTR her back from the third party.
Not entirely sure about maybe making an NTR attempt- successful or not- nix a claim slot.
-Just to make things easier for Wayne- perhaps give him the call for when NTR season is open. Just to allow him to get some listing in order before people start playing hot potato with the waifus.
Something like that.
I'll probably brew up some more ideas. My synapses tend to do that.
I actually like this. The ntr rules seem to allow buddies to help each other though...
I hope we do get reclaims again though...been awhile since we had them, or so it feels.
