Re: Event Rule for Alts!

The only problem I could see accidentally happening would be if an alt shared a costume with another player. But that seems very unlikely.

I thought you had to rank ALL costumes/candy? If not, then I apologize for being misinformed.Rache wrote: ↑13 Nov 2020 23:42You could just not vote for your alt(s), you know, like actively choosing to not cheat. You'd have to leave the candy/costume unranked but maybe that's deemed too much work to avoid cheating? I know how it sounds, but I don't know how to change the sound of my text.Cherek wrote: ↑13 Nov 2020 15:28Rache/Drazson: This is a temporary compromise in regards to the rules that ONLY applies during this event and ONLY when sorting candy and costumes. As I understand, without this rule compromise, it would be impossible for players to paritcipate with more than one character without breaking the rules of the game. Hopefully you can understand why we felt this was a good compromise. Also, sorting your alt's candy/costume as "okay" really isn't much of a benefit at all anyway (I think?).
I'm not trying to be argumentative or sound like a dick, and if I do, I apologize. But the event is very much doable without voting for yourselves.
I've never said that's it's okay to cheat. I said the complete opposite. If you were referring to Gorboth's initital post, then I think you misunderstood what he meant. I certainly did not read it like you did... I think there is a lot of confusion and misunderstandings going on right now... I'll try to clarify again:Drazson wrote: ↑13 Nov 2020 20:45I read the part where you were saying "it's okay for people to cheat if they are numerous (we can't act cause playerbase) or very important/old (they will act up or idk break the server with a hammer).
I am still not clear on the part of *which* rules those 2 bodies can freely break. This time it was an ad hoc announcement, should we expect targetted statements for each guild/item/interaction from now on?
Plus, a follow-up question: Does the above incident change the rules as they apply to the rest of the playerbase - let's refer to them as complete_idiots_who_read_and_abide_by_the_rules? All this is very confusing. Thank you.
