I don't think very many people are happy with the current blob. Some suggestions to fix some of the more common gripes:
- increase the amount of tiles needed for blob victory. With the current huge station and the lack of crew, blobs expand far more easily than they used to be able to on Cog1. Unless a blob is spotted before it gets a second nucleus up and if it's not completely new to the role, there's very little chance of stopping it outside of tactics like telebombing all the nuclei at one go.
- Have blob disabled with crew under a certain number. I've encountered my fair share of blob rounds where there were only about three to five people on - often the blob is capable of winning without anyone ever spotting it, and there's only so much even the most skilled three to four people are capable of doing.
-Have blobs unable to eat monkeys to gain evolution points. It's becoming a common tactic, with latejoin blobs in particular, to set up near a valuchimp, knock it down and immediately gobble up all the monkeys to start off with 15 extra evolution points. Lings and vamps are no longer capable of using monkeys as free points without a little extra work, the same should go for blob.
-Do something about the coloring of black blobs. It is really no fun cranking your monitor brightness to maximum and risking eye strain just to get a hint of where the nucleus might be.
