Dman979 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 The rule was put in place because of situations like this. We would have teams of 3 or 4 people on one side, spamming merrily away, and one player on the other side. This was obviously unfair for the small side. To counter this, someone suggested allowing the players to "overwrite" the previous post, in order to keep things fair. After some trial and error, we ended up with this system. We also added the Medal of Dishonor to discourage two-person teams from running up the score. It works well, and from a GM standpoint, it allows weaker teams to remain competitive in the face of overwhelming odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. In the case of two posters posting the same number with the same operation right after each other, skirmish rules apply. The second one is valid. If you get three people posting the same number with the same operation in a row, ask Deutherious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
