Are you saying now that rooks are just like everyone else? Or, perish the thought, they may even be a little bit sucky?

Alot of Rooks today were Bishops back then, thus the 'dumbing down' of Rooks collective skill quotient...sadly...

We did not have to contemplate a hideous 2 hr tank drive with an uncertain chance of success, a better, foolproof, and immediate solution was available. The ethical responsibility of removing an abused exploit, in this unusual circumstance, far outweighs the consideration of the sactity of a country's CV when it itself is the object and tool of the exploitive behavior.

Still, you guys touched something you ought not to have touched.

So let me just sum this up...

This is an argument about a year old argument?

I would rather stick sharp pencils in my eye rather than drive 1+ sectors in a Tiger.

Zazen's solution was much more eloquent to short circut a flaw in the game dynamics.

Gameplay ethics ? ... please direct me to a web page or some other source where these ethics are discussed.

I missed the intelligence exam that splits the players up to the different countries. I guess me is wun of teh dum ones that isn't smert enough to be on Zazen's team. How sad for me. A thousand applauds to the Bish GVers who showed what can be done if you dedicate extra time and effort to a cause, besides looking for the easy way out. Pretty darn good for a bunch of dummies. Maybe next time before you do it though, attend one of Zazens intelligence and down-with-ethics classes.

last year the bish were exploiting a bug.

this year the rooks were exploiting a bug.

and the rest of it is about ethics of all damn things, in there manner of solving bug exploiting bastards...

Yup, I actually only had control of the CV for 30-45 seconds, that moved it the 300 yards needed to prevent LVT's from spawning dry directly at the port to instantly re-supply it. That beat the hell out of a 2 Hr. + drive 30 miles real distance in a tank to "maybe" get the job done, maybe not...

Had Bish had someone online at the time that out-ranked Lynx on Rooks, don't think for a nano-second they wouldn't have done exactly what I did a year ago. They chose the 2 hour + tank drive only because they lacked the Ranking person, not because of some decision based on abstract morals or game ethics...They are pawning it off as such now retrosepctively in an attempt to convince us they are somehow morally superior because of how they handled the exploit..which, of course, is complete and utter nonsense..
