So much drama...can someone explain it to me too? Reviewer Spirit

That being said it's pretty stupid to rashly fart out a vote kill. I don't think I would ever post a vote kill post without checking if the vote kill name is correct.

Regarding the bias, well I dunno. Lol.

 

[Farfalla]

It's not about a punishment, Gary, ffs. AS I SAID BEFORE, in that case I think that DD should have asked him to keep both votes, since he meant both. His explanations could come with the game. He would lost a vote that wouldn't matter, BUT WTV, it could matter in other situations, so people should keep important info there. The same should go for the example Evil gave, IMO.
I'm not saying that people should be punished for that, AGAIN, FFS. I'm saying that, if the host can control those things (a.k.a. noticing that something disappeared and asking people to get it back), then he should. Specially when it's a vote or an accusation or stuff like that.
Just so we're clear: I'm not saying that DD should do anything with what's already in the past, but I do think that we should talk about it and decide how to work with it in the future. That's what I'M suggesting. You feel free to agree or disagree with it. I'd appreciate not to be called ridiculous while you didn't get my point yet, though. For the record, I mean =)

I won't comment the bias part, though. I don't wanna walk into another war.

Nobody can see if a post changed before its edit tags sets in, so how can you actually police it? I agree in that a vote should not changed without recording it, but there is no sure way to actually police that. The only way to manage to find a person is if the edited after the minute. In which the only logical thing is there to be a one minute amnesty period after they vote to allow someone for whatever reason to edit their post. You cant control it, so leave it.

My observation skills hit the bottom and reading through the pages I missed, I can't get this somehow. Was there a violation of the rules I overlooked? I was kind of in a hurry to go out, so, was careless a bit in the ending.

 

[Nuno]

Actually it's two minutes

(I don't know if it's exactly two minutes, I could find out, but it's pretty certain.)

NO! It's a storm in a teacup!

You can't, unless something like the host seeing it, or someone quoting it, shows it. And that means you should do nothing when that happens?

If they already made two votes then the edit is invalid and only their 2nd vote counts.

If they made a vote and then edited into another vote then they both count and the player has made two votes, the edited vote is their final vote.

THERE it's set in stone now. ~.~ digitaldude


[bene]Edited for added effect[/bene]

 

[Hakuteiken]

Ah, I see, so someone edited the vote after a while and that's what bothered Farfalla in the bigger picture.
Anyway, it's better to clear the things out at this stage rather than waiting for such things to happen in the crucial phases.

So Niichan is banned from the next game too right?

 

[Farfalla]

Why are you saying that if people just agreed with how to deal with it now, and not before he changed it?
People argued about it before, but they settled it now, geez.

 

[xi0]

I never disagreed with anything that was said, and wouldn't. So I don't understand why I'm being called biased. Everything that has been posited is hypothetical, and since I'm not a host I don't have final say. But I will guarantee that if I saw niichan edit it under the two minute point, or anything else I would have said something for sure. But I can't police the game as a player, so...

 

[digitaldude]

Why?

 

[Farfalla]

I didn't call YOU that. I said that about everyone. It's not like you don't know how I think.

 

[Imperium]

Why?

I was seeing if I could start a bandwagon.

 

[xi0]

I didn't call YOU that. I said that about everyone. It's not like you don't know how I think.

So everyone is biased...

I'm just going to drop it since I'm not sure what's even being talked about right now.

That's harsh, we haven't had something like this before and we couldn't really establish clear guidelines on it, except the wizzard case, which was quite unique though and not completely comparable.

But he always wins in the win thread!

Anyway, I am going to stop posting until the end of the phase.

Some of you guys deserve a "TL;DR or IDGAF" reply.
