Will not change his avata
Do you agree to the following amendments to the rules:
personally, I would meet these with a strong No! While a toning down of the rules is fine, completely permitting the renaming of cities/units for the express purpose of misleading through re-naming is ludicrous. the first time i read it I thought GA was joking to see if we were really reading it. Any input will be appreciated.
The poll will be open untila consensus seems to have been reached. GA hasn't specified yet, so I will have it open for 4 days, but we easily vote earlier. It is unclear whether I or CG will be responsible for voting in this poll.
old 2.4 said:2.4 - Misleading through Renaming
Description: No team or individual is permitted to rename a unit or city with the intent of misleading or confusing opponents.
Definition: Cities can be renamed to names of tech or sums of gold or anything else in an effort to not trade what that opponent agreed to. Units can be renamed to other units and appear to be something else entirely.
Purpose: To prevent the misleading or confusion of another team through malicious use of in-game features.
Verdict: Using this 'feature' or any other feature or exploit that allows misleading or confusing another team is a violation of this rule.
Punishment Level: Once Red (5-Expulsion and forfeiture of double what was not legally traded)

2.4 - Renaming Units and Cities
Description: Teams are permitted to rename their units and cities as they please.
Definition: Cities can be renamed to names of tech or sums of gold or anything else in an effort to not trade what that opponent agreed to. Units can be renamed to other units and appear to be something else entirely. For this reason, we encourage teams to formally write out their trade proposals and submit it to the admins to prevent this from happening.
old 4.3 said:4.3 - Fairness Pledge
Every team must agree to the fairness pledge before the game starts:
I pledge to compete fairly and within the rules of the game. I pledge to adhere not only to the written rules, but also to the unwritten, spirit of the rules. I understand that failure to live up to this pledge may result in penalties for me and my team.
