The ax man cometh.

I will vote "yes" for the new rule - but as checkMate, I think we need to give the "other guy" a lillte kind kick before the ax is used.

As E-mails might be lost for some reason, I propose we use the Apolyton Private Message feature - with or without a copy to Quinns (or me or.... who ever) giving the other xx hours/days/weeks..... what-ever agreed upon when the game starts.

I like this. We can do that if Birdman agrees to be the one administering this This will not be part of the rule, but Birdman will do this if the rule is approved.

Yeah without explaining it in some sordid details, THAT was what i was trying to avoid, "administration"

1) cat ate my homework-NOT A GOOD EXCUSE!
2) Dog ate my cat who ate my home work..- nope not gonna be accepting that one either

Ok Steve. TheBirdMan accepts to be "the one".

Troll:

Family is in hospital = ok, good reason.

Bad storm= NO - not before you sign the Kyoto-agreement :seek-cover-men:

[quinns]

The ayes have it.

I'll add a new "Note" to the ladder to make this "official".

[quinns]

Note 11: (Ratified on 3-AUG-2004) Once a CTP PBEM Challenge Match is agreed upon by both players, then any absence from the game for over two weeks will result in a win for the present player and a loss for the absent player. This rule to take effect from 3-AUG-2004 forward, (i.e. this rule is not retroactive.)

Purposely driving into a bad storm to go into hospital to avoid playing turns well..THAT will have to reviewed

Ok so you agree to play one never do and the whinner wins? Ok so you agree to play but never start a game but being away from the game you never started for two weeks means the complainer of the game you never started wins the game that did not exsist, except in an agreement to start the game you never played. But lost cuz you never played it, the game that does not exsist I mean. ok

And all this for what a notch in the win side that has no meaning in the rankings, wow this is starting to make sense now. ;0)

For Non-Canadians it DOES

Basically

A "Hoser" & A Whiner (Think THIS is how its spelt?? agree and a person doesnt play a game..)

I mean Blackice maybe YOU like stale bread to eat on but some of us enjoy fresh bread that moves and dun grow moss on it


My whole point here was people coming and going and holding up games..

Kinda like the deal in a MP game where you have 6 people and one of them takes 20-30 minutes per turn

U Wouldnt play very long and most certainly would lose interest, would you NOT?

(Well, maybe not you but others may!)

Just making sure I had it straight eh!

Will it deter people from doing it, not likely but it will put a conclusion to games that do not exsist yet and have never been played yes.

Bingo!

We have a wiener

[blackice]

The simple course would be to write it off as I do but new rules are always cool even if it is meningless at this point. i sure hope we do not use the win collum in the future only to find out number one spot is held by someone who won the most games by default...
