while Epi is arguing the letter of the rule which states the round proceeding the one in which the member left is the cooldown period. - genocidal
No, I'm afraid you're wrong. I am arguing both the spirit and the letter of the rule. Are you familiar with the english language? Do you know what proceeding round means? It means the following round; don't step in if you don't know what you are talking about.
But the rule vagueness does allow for interpretation - genocidal
On the contrary, despite no punishment for offense being clarified, the actual outline of the rule is very clear for anyone who can use their head. Try it.
As for 2d leaving, what does Code know? It's not like Code was madly refreshing Venom's TWD roster while playing in a game. 2D doesn't need Code's permission to leave Venom, and whether or not 2D told Code or not, ?squadleft or not, or left the Venom chat or not is irrelevant. He left before the round ended in the only place where it mattered, the TWD/TWL website. - Epinephrine
In that case, if people are going to be childish and resort to silly bias and opinionated pseudo determinants to save their friends or their reputation, and say that 'it's a matter of what matches were played and at what times during the round and when the person left during the round' etc, then I want proof of your claims. I want proof that he did indeed leave during matches, and not after. If there is no proof, then your claim can be reinforced no more than mine, in which case a rematch is in session.
Another reason why this desperate resort to a pseudo explanation of the rule technically would never fly, because issues like this would arise each time. You know this Epi; I know how you used to argue against people breaking the law in the past; including when I argued against accidental doublesquadding on past squads of mine. I know if you could you would crusade the same point I am making; I give you too much credit to believe you incapable of seeing all that's been brought forth so far.
Anyway, once again Randedl hammered the point home, and people simply need to stop being childish as accept the simple fact that the rules were broken, and some sort of consequences must ensue, in regards to this situation, and preventing future ones. As for the TWL Ops, this is simply a good reason to consider either reviewing some rules more thoroughly (or, though I could be innacurate on this hunch, reconsider underestimating the crowd's ability to catch on to leniency/favoritism in subtle rule bending), before giving squads heads up. And if TWL staff feels that embarrassed to go up to Pirates and apologize for misinforming them, then perhaps it's time to find new staff to fill the positions in question.
