Crosseyed and Painful tournament...

Yea every1 got mad at taz for rules that didn't exist. Taz played by the rules therefor you can't complain and no1 said anything to anyone else when they did it.

[Word]

when you hit pedestrians with your car because you are driving on the sidewalk they are STILL violated, even if there's no law against violating people who are walking on the sidewalk (so obviously some people will feel encouraged to go to that country ...)

[ItzAcid]

hit someone where i live and you go to jail but i think i know what your saying. kind of like the whole religious debate in the US right now. Freedom of religion vs. Freedom from religion. although its completely okay to do it, it violates others and causes problems.



(yes im just ranting. im actually on the of relgion side. nothing better to do in class so might as well type )

That's recklous driving and driving to endanger. ;) not to mention a possible involuntary manslauter charge if the pedestrian was killed or murder by motor vehicle. ;)

Aren't all team leaders supposed to have team leader? It just makes everything so much smoother.

Yes, but no clue why you hadn't. We included the authorities before it started.

You did something wrong then, everyone had "associates" or whatever its called.

Also, hitting someone with a car is against the rules, regardless of where they are...

[Titanoboa]

if i hit someone with car i get ban?

that was my point
usually we germans follow our cliché to have rules for every little (and usually self-explanatory) crap

the latest example is the "German is the official language of Germany"-law (which will probably not be passed, but there were already serious debates XD)

How is running/camping supposed to be self explanatory? People run in CTF all the time, and many players primarily camp in sumo.

Canadian is not the official language of Canada, so it is not completely ridiculous to have that law passed in Germany.

That's something different, because it's part of the game and your team benefits from it. You are supposed to score when you have the flag, so it's not pure cowardice when you aren't seeking fights all the time.
Same for sumo. You die if you cannot stay in your zone.

But you don't die everytime you attempt to attack someone in C&P, do you? the only way you can score is by killing all enemies which means you're expected to do something actively.

[Kijutsu]

Yes, the people who were boxing themselves in and running away were giant pussies and made the rounds boring and long.

..But there is no rule against it so the people who were flaming them really need to flame the people who made the rules instead.

The campers/runners were doing something actively. They were staying alive, which you get 2x the kill points for. Players also randomly kill themselves sometimes (fat fingers, lack of attention span, bored to death, w/e).

You might want to think before you blurt out a thought; in sumo, you don't die every time you attack someone. The only way you can score in sumo is by killing people, or outlasting your enemies (if camping or running happens to be the way you go about it, good for you).

I suppose our opinions are too different here. camping/running is usually a sign of panic in LMS (at least in the servers where i played, the runners were nearly always inferior as soon as someone began to chase them).
Even if you disagree with that (there are enough reasons for and against what I just said), I do think that camping in a LMS is just misbehaviour (it was a tourney so some people surely liked to win it by all possible means, so my job is to turn that one off , ). In Yellow Sub for example (!), you get polled when you do that (although there aren't any rules - but there's a dz).

I didn't say that you're unable to attack while you are in your zone, but it's just stupid at times when you have enough room while most others can't get in and die because of their collapsing zones.

However, you find me in the server, i'm currently trying to change the settings a bit so it's impossible to do that again.
