V-FLAGS and way to deal with them

Recently too many games have been decided by people not honoring the v-flag. Answer has been pretty simple. When I get control, and someone tries to v-flag my response. . . "sorry I dont accept v flags anymore".

I hope everyone may encourage this type of play, plus it does help you get more dom!!!!!!

Thanks everyone and Happy Rolling!

i do v flag, but i tend to do it most succesfully when i dont think i can win, but i could hurt the player. this generally gets accepted :D
i do respect that some players dont accept/like v flags and am perfectly happy with the above kind of response, i have used similar when accepting a flag will hurt my own game

i agree with you dug, and will attack empty vflags when i am in control. whenever i try to explain the reasoning, most of the table hates me though.

on the lower tables (0 and 100), there is no dom, so the dom argument doesnt work down there. but 500+ tables, i totally agree with you.

I have taken to saying "flags are not magic invincibility potions" which tends to get a chuckle as well as get the point across.

i heard a nasty rumor that the v in vflag stands for a state not named virginia.

or just say "sorry, misclick"

I have always attacked flags, virtual or real on a case by case basis determining the value of that flag to my game. If it was a vflag or real flag for 2nd that ensured my victory it gets respect most of the time, if it is just a sprawl out ninja flag I will eat free land as I see fit.
