Either you misread my post or you didn't do your homework about previous war...

Nothing wrong with having them early
I'd rather not be disqualified, thank you very much.

There are standings in each Round topic.

If you want a seperate topic then you'll have to wait for SG because it requires embedding which only she can do on this forum.

The betting for war is also her domain.

Thanks for answering that. I would prefer we have a separate topic for standings. It's easier to see and changes to vault are laid out nicely. It can also avoid any unnecessary conflict.

Just need a bit of clarification here.

So here's what the rules say about subbing matches:

1. Temporarily replace that team member with any other team member, including the General. Temporary replacement player will use the exact same deck and mark that the original player would have used. Replacements (Generals and Lieutenants included) use the same exact deck as recorded for that player including any upgraded cards. Penalty for using a replacement is that you cannot salvage any cards if you win!

Now that the Substitute role is gone, all matches that were subbed and won by the subbing team are zero-card salvages (instead of the regular 6), right?

[TheonlyrealBeef]

Wait, subbing team still gets no salvage? I thought that'd be fixed after it (obviously) turned out that neither team wanted to sub. Otherwise we will get more drama, on both being online, but not at the same time and people being forced to sub etc. (even though upgrades part is apparently different?)

Anyone can substitute using the original deck (with upgraded cards if any). But when you substitute, you cannot salvage.

It is my understanding that last time we had drama because non-Subtitutes didn't want to substitute, or were tricked/forced to substitute, which led to winning team losing 3 card salvage. This new rule was made to prevent that situation.

The thing is that having to substitute must have a penalty attached to it. If there is no penalty, or the penalty is too low, people will stop trying to make duels happen and half the matches during a round will be fought using substitutes.

[The_Mormegil]

Totally true. You could take a team of cheap slaves and just substitute for them all. One player team FTW.

Can we include the mark code in the official deck thread? So each deck would appear with a question mark at the end of it? Just to eliminate errors in mark changing

I have no problem with that.
