Exceptions?! Nonononono! Wappers can't multipost, so there aren't any exceptions by disallowing multiposts, are there?

I got an idea!
Every post must be a sentence (minimum lenght can be decided) Sentences can't be repeated. All repeating/short sentences will be disqualified from the round...
[edit]
I'll tell everyone the reason I multi-posted last game. It's simply because in several games before that one, during the 1 sec my PC used to refresh the page, the post count increased with an increment of 18!!!! all of those posts - posted by only 3 people!!! so don't point a finger at me accusing me of doing something horribly bad!
By the way, all 3 were on WAP

You really want to kill wappers eh? Just disallow multiposting. Problem solved!

wappers ,ay play BLIND but they don't submit submit submit submit submit without the thread refreshing every time.
And mobile.esato.com will allow submit submit submit submit to the nth degree.
IMHO there is a difference.

anyway, since there is obviously some discontent here I have mentioned to tranquil I will not start any more games until some decision is made on this issue.
lets hope we can get back to the fun soon!

A simple deduction for back 2 back will sort it.

I would just like to mention that Submit Submit Submit Submit is possible on WAP as well. You simple need to be more then one doing it, and your blind posts will order themselves fine (just like they've done the last 6 games)
...provides a pretty nice protection from back2back as well

Best way I think masseur. There must be a solution out there that's fair to PC and WAP users alike - we just need to find it

wrath000 > no offense, but you don't get it, don't you? As BOSSHOGG and I mentioned, disallowing multiposts is the best, easiest and fairest solution! (1-2 isn't multiposting, 1-1-2-2 is!)

Yeah, that seems to be the fairest (stopping multi-posting). I also like the idea of Wrath about forcing long sentences and varied, I generally paste something so it would slow me down quite bit. However this would kill users from a wap device if you have to enter long text.
How many points should we take of for multi-posts? I would suggest to take out 2 point per offence, and no more than 10 per thread. |

Lets not forget that this is a game, if we argue too much they will stop doing it. Apparently in am earlier game i had two consecutive posts on wap. Is this right?

How about everyone is entitled one free post (anything). All othert have to be meaningfull sentences. That way you can run up the replys (the normal way) and do a quick post

@Masseur
There is no need to stop the game since changing rules in the middle of the game is not a good thing to do. In my opinion this playtime series should go on with the same rules and may be if more than one playtime is going simultaneously then people won't be able to do so many multiposts, coz they will running form one place to another. What you think?
Knowledge is two fold. Knowing a subject or knowing where to find out about a subject. I rely on both... That is why I come here.  |
