i don’t see the issue then. �seth can you elaborate?
Sub combat on triplea is handled illegally. I stated so after the first round and asked him to continue the battle on the forum. I also warned him that I wouldn’t feel compelled to accept the combat results if he rolled further sub combat via triplea.
I decided to accept the first round since I didn’t know what he knew about the triplea issue and decided to give him the benefit of the doubt. But I also made sure he knew what the issue was so he’d know in the future.
It doesn’t matter what the results are if you do something illegally. Note that I hadn’t seen the combat result prior to issuing my warning about not accepting the dice rolls. This isn’t something that I started protesting AFTER the fact, this is something that I made him aware of BEFORE he continued the roll. Not my fault he ignored both the rules and my explicitly stated wish for him to roll the sub combat on the forum.
The issue you pointed out is absolutely true. But this issue doesn’t affect our game’s outcome even a tiny bit. �You probably wanna see dice results(for both subs and the rest of the attacking force) all together. Preferably in � one same battle window screen, right? But the fact is that this software is made this way –- subs roll first then the rest. So we have to live with it. The dice results come out separately in 2 screen. But you still see both before you need to do anything, don’t you? I would not be able to take advantage of this. �Please don’t think I am ignoring you or cheating.
No we don’t have to live with it! That’s the whole point of rolling things out in the forum. And maybe that particular roll precluded me having any further impact in that battle via OOL. But you had NO way of knowing so prior to you actually rolling. You proceeded to roll things out despite knowing that triplea did things illegally and you still don’t seem to get that triplea rolling the subs incorrectly is wrong or a big deal. And you continued despite me telling you to roll on the forum. Those rolls happened AFTER I asked you not to roll on triplea and gave you the link to the document that clearly states what the issue is.
Just because the rolls in this instance wiped me out doesn’t mean your decision to ignore both myself and the rules is right by any means.
Gamer,
I know certain people on this site don’t like mixing sport analogies into this game. But I’m going to use one anyway to see if I can help you understand where I’m coming from. Say there’s holding on a defensive end after the ball carrier is already past the defender. The ball carrier proceeds to race 40 yards and into the endzone for the TD. Now even though that DE had absolutely no play on the running back, the ref sees the hold and correctly throws the flag. The referees confer with each other and call the play back to the spot of the foul and tack on 10 yards. They’re not going to say well gee it’s only fair that we spot the ball on the 1 yard line since the holding didn’t really affect the play. If something’s illegal, the resulting play or outcome shouldn’t be impacted by anything else.
I’m not asking that MagicQ be penalized as it’s clear he’s not trying to cheat or take advantage of something. He just didn’t grasp the impact that attacking subs rolling first has on the game. I’m not asking for anything but for Rd2 to be rerolled. He’ll still probably wipe me out. But I understand that’s it’s not guaranteed he would, so I’m willing to offer him a LL reroll on the battle from Rd2 if I somehow win. That way he’s protected from getting diced in reverse. I’d be satisfied with this.
