Rules.

[old.The Nullifier]

I think everyone will agree the rules need to be updated. I want to make the rules clear however I want to make sure the rules arent too overbearing - and more importantly make the league fun!

Just wanted to know how poeple wanted to deal with people dropping (time outs). We have a few options

1. Replace the dropped player with a substitute
2. Ask the opposite team to drop a player to spectator whilst the lost member returns.


Each rules has its drawbacks, the important thing is to keep the game flowing during connection problems.

Ahhh the great connection dropping debate!!

Well if you have a spectator to take over if someone drops it keeps the game flowing.

If you ask the other team to make someone go spectator till a replacement arrives it keeps the game flowing.

However, the first option means that spectators are always in the game and COULD and i mean could not will, be used to spy on the other team and relay info to the in-game players via Battlecom etc.

The second options means the person who dropped to spectator could then relay info whilst in spec mode, also an unfair advantage.

However, if the game was paused and waited until the player returned they could wait forever if the player cannot reestablish a connection.

(BTW this info is for newbies)

I think the best way to deal with this is for every player to have leased lines installed!!!

Seriously though, maybe have stand-ins waiting in an IRC channel to be called in by the admin, once the game has been paused, if needed. I know this is a labourious way of doing it but is one of the only fair ways for it to happen.

Or maybe i am just talking rubbish, u decided!!

Main priority is to keep the game flowing I think?

 

[old.Asterix]

Keep the game flowing or allow for easy cheating?? hmmm

I have admined lots of games for EF as well as CS etc and making it easy for clans to moan when they lose about the other team cheating is a recipe for disaster.


But hey i dont really as we are gonna win all our matches in Div2 anywayz!! LOL

Idea to keep game flowing...

Hi all brothers in arms,

I have just an idea about how to handle this. Obviously we cannot have someone spect from each at every moment, it would cut down max number of players by 2 badly needed spots (if you add the admin we would have teams of 6 peeps max).

Why not use Roger Wilco? Have peeps waiting and listening to the game while it is played and have team leaders ask for replacement when needed? Having the admin deal with finding replacements is not a good thing cause we need him/her druing the game or... You know.

Well guys hope It helped...

Thats exactly what I suggested.

All the clans will be on voice comms, all they need to do is shout for a sub.

A sub can be in the game within 60 seconds, no need for anyone to spectate or stop the match at all...
