Subj : Re:USO Rule #4 To : All From : Space Ghost Date : Mon Dec 30 2002 08:01 pm actually SupG this particualr tourny had a simular rule that resulted in one team being disqualified.... I would like clarification if its ok with you. I would hate to wake up one day after having 45 days invested to be disqualified because the sysop decided my afk script allowed my corpies too much power over my turns,,,, I would think you would understand this.... But if u cant understand what im asking ..it's ok the question wasnt directed at you :> Have a Nice Day.
