Hi, we stumbled upon a problem in our game, chakk, I'm hoping you can help out.
FaD won the first game, no problem with that one.
Now the second game (I attached the replay): Here's a breakdown (you can check for yourself, of course)
- I started the game
- First notable point: 9:30 - I accidentally block the pathway. FaD asked me to skip turn (rightly so!) and so I unblocked the path and skipped turn.
- Second notable point: 14:20 and onwards - FaD accidentally knocks me off the block. This is where the problem kicks in and I'll need your judgment! I assumed that since he knocked me off, I was allowed to teleport back up, so I did.
- Third notable point: 16:30 - This is where I consider play to resume with switched turns; i.e. After my teleport, I consider we've had an equal amount of turns to get where we were. FaD races on and finishes in 2 turns, I finish in one.
So here are my arguments (I urge FaD to do the same)
- I teleported because my worm was knocked down. If I had screwed up the bungee, I would of course have finished the race the normal way.
- FaD clearly thought my teleport was unfair considering his reaction to it. However, it was not a problem for him that I skipped a turn earlier on when I was blocking him
- If my teleport was legal, then it also should not have cost me a turn. This would mean that play should resume with FaD's worm below the last jump and mine on top, while it's my turn.
- FaD continued to move his worm despite me clearly not moving while trying to resolve the issue and it was in fact *his* turn when play resumed (hence switched turn in the notable points list)
FaD's opinion is that this game is void, yet mine is that this game is a win for me.
Sorry for all the trouble, chakkman, but I'd rather have this problem resolved before continuing my match with FaD.
Needless to day I will adhere to any decision you make, but I hope a simple motivation will go with your decision
