Note for Warmasters and Coucil regarding Event Cards:
With the addition of Event Cards, there will be many rounds in War #3 in which teams have their vault sizes shift in a way not directly reflected by wins and losses. To take an example, the Monster Nest event gives teams a bonus based on vault information that other teams do not have. However, total vault numbers are and always should be public information during War.
Because of this and similar event-related concerns, there should be a new thread started each round by the Warmaster called "EVENT" in which each team will post once to indicate their vault shift based on the event card. To take the above example, if the event for a given round is Monster Nest, a team might post into the EVENT thread something like this:
>> Team Aether +6 cards from event.
This way the total vault numbers will remain public knowledge and accurate in the end-of-round totals.
There are also cases where a public declaration needs to be made by a team; like which player is chosen to play a specific role with a card like Gambler's Hour. In general it should be the policy of War that these decisions are made public ... and in some cases the deadline for making the decisions might have to be 24-48 hours after the Event Card is posted rather than at the start of the next round, so teams can react to others' decisions.
One other method would be to handle these things in the Conversion thread of each team's forum section. But of course this would imply more work for the Warmasters and less clarity for the community.
