(CLOSED) Appeal - Week 7 - TWDTD - Pure Luck vs Treyway

[Rab]

Pure Luck appeals this match due to not being able to sub in a previously subbed out player.


Grounds for appeal

Kentaro lagged out before go.
The game started. Kentaro had not returned.
Paradise was subbed in for Kentaro to avoid playing 4v5.
Kentaro returned. We wanted to sub Kentaro in for Paradise. The bot did not allow it.

Yes, but we do need this fixed in the bots. Had it mattered, it would be an issue.

Re-opened the topic to respond to the issue. (Heads up: for future appeals it's best to just close/lock the topic and perhaps change the title of it rather than outright delete it. This is useful for record-keeping and transparency.)



The bug that prevented the config option ("subcansub") from working was fixed. However, while it was enabled for TWDTB, it remained off for D and J.


EDIT: Keeping it off in D and J for now. The bot side of it works fine. However, if a player were to be subbed in for someone else, they could potentially make use of more than 10 lives, which is against league rules for obvious reasons. Having a leagueop command that would allow them to sub back in only for the person they were subbed out by originally might be a good compromise, but would still need to be monitored/in the hands of an op in the case of dealing with a confusing chain of substitutions, for instance.
