Updated Rules and Regulations "Please Read"

[Parker]

I don't know why this is so upsetting to you all. Why people are getting called dumb for pointing out gray areas. It's how you revise things, it makes sense to do it.

 

Pugh, you have to pin off of the impact finisher as well in order to try and lock in a sub for the win. I believe you know that, and do that, but your explanation to Trance does not reflect that.

 

It's not a grey area, some people have taken a simple rule and somehow taken it to mean something it isn't.

That's not a 'grey area' , it's a 'stupid person'.

[Cody Storm]

No, it's shitty wording on your parts, that has since been fixed because people have been nit picky.

[Parker]

Again ,wrong..the 1st draft was easy and simple to read and understand, people who mis interperated [sp?] it just went looking for shitty ways to exploit it and win multiman matches.

 

Hence the micro management and us having to spell out every pathetic scenario to people.

Definition for the word rules: One of a set of explicit or understood regulations or principles governing conduct within a particular activity or sphere.

 

They have to be explicit. If people have questions, if there is room for interpretation, then the rules are inherently flawed. Which they were, and proof is in the fact that you said people were interpreting them differently.

 

And I'm getting really pissy about this because I'm one of the guys that keeps talking about these rules, so I must be one of the ones you're calling stupid, and I don't take being insulted (unless it's just joking around) very well at all. Especially in this situation where I wouldn't exploit these rules like this, I'm just pointing things out and asking questions so that no one can exploit them because people will. And it's better to have talked about it and outlined it before hand than to get screwed over in a match and then sit and bitch about it for the rest of all time.

You can ask questions Son of God.

 

When writing a contract you tend to have to spell out every scenario. Can't really hope for proper interpretation as, like ethics, interpretation various from person to person.

[Pugh]

If i may be so bold as to say this.

 

IF you've been using a submission finisher to this point, you're fully aware of all scenarios. Since these rules don't mention submission finishers as a seperate entity, its safe to assume they're the same.

 

Like Jay and Parker keep saying, most things should be taken as read - this new auto finish rule is a LAST RESORT. Not a direct way to finish every match.

[Bloom]

Sub finishers haven't changed its still regfin then sub.

[Jacob Trance]

Sub finishers haven't changed its still regfin then sub.

 

 

So... What if I HIT a sub finisher, but don't win off it (which is what the rule is for) I can then hit ANOTHER sub finisher later. THis is my understanding.

[Bloom]

Impact then sub always n forever unless a match you cant use sub at all to win,
