I do not know how your new quote of me adds any new information to the previous quote of me, didnt I tell the same previously also? So, which is purpose of showing duplicate evidence which states the same my opinion?
To explain that quote in detail, I indeed think that "not taking card after territory is taken" should be additional strategic option, just as nuclear or zombie are additional strategic options. If my opinion is accepted by the site, then the site would implement question "do you indeed want to get card?" at the end of the turn, to which the player can respond with "yes" or "no". Therefore, everyone on the site would have CHOICE to take card or not by the site feature. THIS is what I support and if this is implemented then both Fyrdraca team and me would have the same strategical possibilities in baseball and every other game. On this way, both teams would play using the same and equal set of rules, which was originally not the case in our baseball game because josko.ri said: "In team games and in 1v1 games I ask my opponents do they agree to use that strategy and I use it only if they agree."
Also, Don and every other underminers, I see you are still active searching for evidence to undermine me. Couldnt you find a single 1v1 or team game where I used this strategy to throw it directly to my face? I have played 80% of my games ever (more than 14.400) in escalating 1v1 or team mode so it shouldnt be a problem to you to find one game where I used this strategy, if such game exists. Of course you could not find because I am not such cheap player to use this kind of unsportmanship strategy.
While I may think the strategy is/was not against rules, I never used it in 1v1 and team games because my opponents might think differently and therefore my using of it would give me an unfair strategical advantage. Similarly is with 12 hour fog rule, some players thinks it is not unsportmanship behavior to play turns right away but they still do not do it to give fair play consideration to their opponents. I have enough confidence in my skills to be qualified enough to earn my wins by outplaying my opponents, so I do not need to use such unsportmanship strategy as Fyrdraca's team, who otherwise lost with 6-0 clean sheet from my team in circumstances when they did not use such unsportmanship strategy.
Interestingly, 89% of voters in the thread posted by Don voted that this loophole should be closed in 24 hour games. This means that Fyrdraca's team conducted kind of move which is not supported by 89% of CC players. Therefore, that result of the poll is actual measure of what people want rather than result of this poll where I made honest mistake putting three names in the thread title. I dont know why escalating loophole was not fixed back then given that majority voted for it.
