Declined [JB] Last day warday adjustment. (1 Viewer)

[Nergal Nergalton]

Fairly recently, we adjusted the rules surrounding warday so that it can be done on the last round under certain circumstances. These are the new rules:

Warday may be initiated in one of two ways:
- Through Last Request.
- If there are 2 or less minutes remaining on the server map timer when the round starts, and there are no active last requests, Wardens have the option to initiate Warday. Wardens who wish to start Warday in this manner must do so as their first order.

However, the part I highlighted in red is something I feel would not hurt to tweak. The "no active last requests" part technically means if there is any LR at all, no matter what it is, it automatically invalidates a last round warday. However, there are LRs that I feel wouldn't outright interfere or impend a last round warday but more spice it up and give it some challenge, so to speak.

These are the LRs I can think of that would fall in this category:
- RTD day
- Low gravity day
- Tiny Mann day
- Guards Melee Only
On the other hand, these are LRs that would interfere with a last round warday and thus invalidate it:
- Any custom LR (most of them, some wouldn't but to try to not cause fights between which LRs can and can't be done with warday it'd be easier just to invalidate last round warday with any of them)
- Rapid Rocket, Market Garden, and HHH Day
- Freeday LRs

Basically, if this passes, the rule would be changed to "no active last requests" to:

"Last day warday can be done with the following LRs:
- RTD day
- Low gravity day
- Tiny Mann day
- Guards Melee Only
Any other LR, including all custom LRs, will invalidate a last round warday."

So basically vote away.

EDIT: Added another option to make this only apply to RTD day since it would probably be the most popular option.

More chaotic = More fun

I think this is a good idea, usually warday with rtd affects is delegated to when an admin is online so they can enact the lr. But being able to initiate a tiny mann warday without an admin online is pretty neat.

Would lead to alot of confusion among the playerbase.

No.

No.

Also, what if the LR receiver doesnt want his LR to be done while warday?

I prefer to have a strict guideline rather than one that's open to each person's interpretation and I'm sure regs won't be excited to have to debate this with eachother on the fly.

"No last day warday if there's an LR" is simple to grasp, "erm you can technically do warday under 3 specifics LRs and certain customs" sounds like shit to enforce and for players to deal with.

This is a fair point for any custom LR, however, the other days (Tiny Mann day, Guards Melee Only, RTD day, and Low Gravity day) are fine honestly. The LR receiver can't make the warden do any minigame they want when they chose those LRs so last round warday shouldn't be any different.

The part of interpretation is a fair point for custom LRs, but the base LRs I listed like Tiny Mann Day shouldn't be up to interpretation. It would make it harder, yes, but if it doesn't make it completely impossible, I would call it fair game (yes, even Guards Melee Only day. I personally think it would be funny if the warden was really that sadistic enough). Basically, if Warday can still be done on a base level, it qualifies. Regardless, I've added an option to make it only apply to RTD day, since it would be the most popular LR anyways to do warday with.

 

[Nergal Nergalton]

Adjusted it a little, to help reduce debates I've excluded any custom LRs from the list of doable LRs.

I think, rather than changing last day warday , allow people to do any LR during rtd day as long as the person that picked the LR allows it.

HG with rtd would be fun
HNS with rtd would also be fun

It should be up to the LR recipient if he wants warday truthfully. I would imagine this would be a popular compromise to this suggestion

i made this suggestion to add RTD warday, all it needs is to be implemented, eventually...

 

[Cowboy]

yeah not a fan of this and it kind of leads to more confusion and complication. Just let the person who got LR decide.

EDIT: Added new "Up to LR Recipient" option

 

[Zee]

On my way to add more options to divide the vote instead of making a new suggestion to better represent an opinion

 

[Nergal Nergalton]

Poll is now closed.

Due to not having a clear majority this will be discussed with the admin team before moving to either complete or decline this suggestion.

 

[Cowboy]

With the vote being a pretty close tie, the admin team came together and decided that this rule addition will overcomplicate and add to the rules already held in place. We have decided to decline this suggestion for convience sake on behalf of the players and the staff team.

Thank you everyone for your participation.
