Taking Riks advice here is a new thread for discussing reloads for mistakes
We have 2 proposed rules
From the other thread
To accidently delete a GP is serious however i wouldn't vote for a reload because whenever you delete a unit you are asked for confirmation, so you'd have to misclick twice in a row which for me would be carelaessness rather than an accident
We have 2 proposed rules
1. A reload for a mistakenly placed city may be granted by the Game Admin(s) given that;
a. It can be verified that the city is incorrectly placed via discussions and screenshots in the team forum prior to city being placed
b. It doesn't effect another teams placement of a city on that turn
c. It has not been a regular occurrence
d. A request must be made on the turn of settling or the immediate turn after if that team was the last team to play.
For a reload to be granted it must meet the following criteria:
1. The mistake is of a serious nature, and can not be easily rectified, resulting in serious long term consequences
2. The request for a reload is made promptly
3. It can be demonstrated that the move in question was not intended, through prior team discussions and pre-planning.
4. The team making the mistake has not gained usable information through their mistake
A request for a reload may be rejected even if it meets the above criteria if it is determined that the impact on the game would be too severe, for any reason.

grant2004 said:I'll admit that the most likely situation that would require a reload is a settlement error, and you've developed a decent ruleset for that situation. I can imagine a few less critical, and less likely situations which I personally would allow a reload on as long as doing so wouldn't greatly impact other teams. For example, accidental deletion of a great person. Until we discuss such a situation we won't know where the majority's opinion lies.
