"Cant you just hear the mother in me come out..." Did that birthcontrol device fail?! |

at 10:16 AM, Wednesday August 6, 2008 EDT As much as you flag-happy cowards might want, there is no requirement that anyone accept your pansy faux-alliances. In fact, there are some of us that think that this flagging nonsense is at least as bad for the game as the cabal, proxy-cheating, or fiero ever was. You see those things only affected a handful of players, maybe the most vocal and generally the top 100, but still only a handful. This "flaggotry" (a term I don't like) is pervasive even at the 0 tables.
And less you complain too much, here's what Ryan had to write on Grun's ill-advised "Neville Chamberlain" post: "With all this said, the problem I think that needs to be solved, and has existed in previous versions of flagging, is to make sure everyone knows that flagging is not a sure thing. If it were it would be enforced in the game. Since flagging for 2nd doesn't always mean you get 2nd it means that its not a hard "rule" and is open to using however you like as a strategic tool. Of course when someone doesn't respect your flag you're going to get upset, but this is part of the game like getting upset when several players decide to focus on attacking you - its part of the game. When people complain about not respecting flags you can point them here - or maybe an advisor can write a blog post about respecting flags." Unfortunately there is only one way to get people to realize what exactly flagging does and that is to NOT respect them and farm the hell out of people who do flag. |
