QL RULE - trust me its important....

SeP

ok one rule reads like this
"- If a player disconnects during the game or gets disconnected, the match will be
restarted, But that player will recieve a -5 to their frag count when the new match
begins. "
that is not needed with 2.21
it reinstates the players score on reconnection
so if u leave and its 11 to -15 if the -15 disses and reconnects he will get his -15 back
handy =] =]
so how about removing that because disconnections due to ur connections occur regularily both with modemers (like me on a 28 8 =[ ) and those on HEAnet have complained about dissing
what yez think????

This may be mute too for Q2 if they are using the BATTLE mod, as it maintains the players scores/time?

Err dont u have anything better to do ???


FYI.. the disconnection penalty is to stop asseholes quiting when their getting bashed and then coming back and demanding a rematch!

The rule is a bit silly, 5 frags mean alot more in quake2 than in quake1. most 10min duels i've fought on the q2 levels choosen tend to end up with the winner having around 5 frags or so. well, thats with 2 players of equal skill. can u imagine being tied 5 each with someone on q2dm1, then your line drops, and u lose the level 5-0?

some sort of compromise should be reached.
