8. save, exit, & send save to Doughnut, Rik, & RegentMan

Just a reminder: Ginger_Ale and myself are the admins. Rik just made the map. He is also the moderator of this forum (i.e. you post naughty stuff, he'll be the one to punish you). He has no other position with the game.

 

[Tubby Rower]

Oh sorry. We have contacts already in our account for GA, Regent, & MIA. I'll fix the post. Thanks.

I just got a PM from Provolution asking me to play the save...

Is this allowed?? Can we send PM's to the other teams to request people to play the save? Provo seems to be getting hornery (<- is that a word? )

...I think you mean ornery.

Want me to post the message? (if that's allowed)

 

[RegentMan]

That would not be allowed (Playing the other team's save). It could set you up for violating espionage rules. Please forward me the PM; I'm sure Provolution made a simple mistake.

IP he wrote so there's no problem posting it in the Intel Thread.
I think it's best to let RegentMan handle this and we need to stay mum until we are asked to do something.
If someone on his team was smart they'd tell him to zip it and quick. He has not endeared himself to Classical, DaveShack or us.

 

[Whomp]

OK we need to vote on the "posting to the turntracker rule".
Bede says yes.
I say "yes" but with some leniency. At least 3 warnings before penalty seems reasonable to me. What do you all think?
Yes, No or abstain.

 

[Tubby Rower]

EDIT::::

Tubby votes to vote to abstain
IroP can post with his own vote....

 

[IroquoisPlisken]

As Tubby had previously posted, I vote no. My reason is that I almost forgot to post there on Turn 8, so I know how it feels.

 

[Tubby Rower]

Sorry, IroP I didn't want to speak for you in case you had changed your mind.

The reason why I voted to vote to abstain is that by voting we are going to be "chosing a side". If we abstain we could still play both teams against each other, after we meet them of course .

 

[Whomp]

I have posted for some clarification on the rule because I may change to NO if the penalty is harsh.

I so happy we have this team. We don't seem to have any problem moving the save....it almost brings a tear to my eye.....I love you guys man!

 

[RegentMan]

The amendment now looks like this. I'm sorry for any inconvience:

6.3.2 - Notification of Playing
Immediately after the save has been played and e-mailed to the proper people, the team's designated player must notify the MTDG community by posting in the designated "Turn Tracker" thread.

 

[Tubby Rower]

The only good diplomatic vote is abstain. Obviously if the penalty is a turn for an offense then vote NO.

But if it is not a big deal, vote to abstain. WE haven't had any trouble and I suspect that we won't after everyone that plays normally gets a couple of turns under their belt.

- If you vote YES, your perceived to be on Provo's side.
- If you vote NO then you are on Classic's side.

Let DaveShack decide between them and then we'll be able to play all three against each other.

 

[Whomp]

The penalty will be the same as not playing within the 24 with some leniency.
I agree with Tubby and my vote is to abstain.

 

[Bede]

Given TR's analysis of the situation I think abstinence is the best.....

 

[RegentMan]

Regarding the Provolution PM incident: He didn't imply you playing TNT's save, he just saw you online and wanted to remind you to play when the save came your way, so that the game would keep moving.

 

[Kickbooti]

Wow, listening to your political assesment's makes me feel like Kissinger's shoe-shine boy.

I'll vote to abstain too.

 

[IroquoisPlisken]

Hmm, after reading Tubby's analysis, I vote to abstain as well, as long as the penalty isn't too harsh.

Regarding the Provolution PM incident: He didn't imply you playing TNT's save, he just saw you online and wanted to remind you to play when the save came your way, so that the game would keep moving.

Oh, yeah, I knew he didn't want me to play TNT's save...is that what everyone else thought I meant? Sorry for the confusion.

 

[Whomp]

I am going to post it as a vote to "abstain". I think that's a quorum.

 

[Tubby Rower]

@ IroP, no I didn't think that he wanted you to play for TNT. I was just concerned about him telling you to play.... It's really not a big deal but we only had the save for 2 hours and he's already pressuring us to play. We'll play when we're ready. Stop bother us.
