Rules Update

Postby aRt)Y » Sat Nov 30, 2013 5:37 pm

This means:
  • Leave as obs or mini once the titan has won (all builders are dead/left)
  • Do not challenge/force the titan to stay and afk-war
  • If anyone exploits the rule by purposely afking the 10 minutes to annoy the titan, might as well get banned.
The rule does not apply to the titan.

Find any of my titan games vs euros (especially BG the whore monger), plenty of examples there.

Inb4 people dieing early-mid, then afking and elo bug happening since they afk 5 hours.

Does the elo bug only happen when the last builder alive leaves before units disappear or also when he dies normaly but there are still obs?

If the last remaining builder is killed regardless of if he left (40 seconds til he disappears) or not the game end will trigger.
If the last remaining builder leaves before he is killed the game will continue until all the obs have left, players who do not pick builders at the begging are not affected by this.

So what about adding an additional rule that forces the last builder alive to suicide to the titan before leaving if he wants to leave the game/not play anymore/lost/game is over

Many new players and players who mass leave when game seems hopeless will be banned by this.

Kinda. But with the 10 min afk rule alone, people (maybe) gonna afk as obs and say it wasnt intentional or w.e, no?

You are forced to leave as obs, so afking longer might cause elo-bug/afk-wars. How do we handle this?

I. Mods will have to judge the cases individually. Same applies to titan stalling.
II. If you know you are going to afk longer than 10 minutes, then leave the game.

Because it doesn't solve the elo issue.
