You’re punishing the faction for the fault of one person of that faction.

If they’re tactically +EV because of radical change in the skill of the holder of the slot, that’s bad.
But they’re always supposed to be +EV for the alternative reason that the person coming into the slot has more time to contribute to the game than its previous holder.

eh you’re right, that’s not fair to the faction. Let me backpedal here and rephrase.

Literally encouraging people to lie

Replacings should be always -EV, to discourage from it in general.

I agree that it’s too lax. I was fairly strict in the games I hosted about this and wanted an explanation and would take it into account in future games, who has replaced out in my previous games for certain reasons.

An explanation should be asked for privately to ensure that it isn’t a tactical replacement.
However, if an explanation is unsatisfactory or unprovided, the consequences should be against the player who asked to be replaced, not the slot itself

Is that better @Solic

We are pretty good at social deduction now aren’t we? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Look even if you’re replacing out for so called valid reasons from multiple games you’ll be suspended for a while to give you time to make sure you can actually play the games you sign up for

and that’s fair. But the consequences should affect those players, not their slots.

I don’t know if this should be handled on a systemic basis, or if this is wisdom of the mod tbh.

We can setup amazing standards, but we should also be realistic in this manner and look at what would work for this site for everyone.

Yep. And that despite having a dire situation of mass replacings.

#15855

There is no such situation

i agree with solic that it’s not really fair to the factions that these slots are a part of to modkill them.
It’s fine in ToL because that’s a turbo format but in FM, where each game takes at least five hundred times as long as a game of ToL, this sort of thing matters a lot more.

#15860

Just count the numbers of replacers each game.
