SCL points for no-show

*Brunwulf* Wulf Guard Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals Posts: 1,299 Joined: May 17, 2012 I sat staring at the screen for 15 minutes on Sunday afternoon waiting for my SCL opponent to turn up. He didn't, but I thought- oh well- I was looking forward to that all afternoon but hey- at least it's easy points! When I checked the league- he had gained a point from it!!!!!! That point could be crucial come the end of the season. Why do heck you get a point for not showing up and inconveniencing another player?????? Don't seem right to me. ......................... vet ww wv e2g gwextrav sssc northernsummer gateautumn deathrce1 marshal race1 raceL1 combat1 pvp5 pvp4 pvp3 pvp20,1,0 Posted Aug 2, 2016, 9:53 am

*Brunwulf* Wulf Guard Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals Posts: 1,299 Joined: May 17, 2012 ADDITIONAL: I did speak to the player later, and he told me that he couldn't make it and forgot about it- which is fair enough- we all have other things to do in life other than DW (more's the pity) AND- we was fined $42,000 for the no show. But even so- he shouldn't get a point from it surely? The last thing this game needs is to be rewarding ppl for NOT playing. The exact opposite is what's needed in a big way now! ......................... vet ww wv e2g gwextrav sssc northernsummer gateautumn deathrce1 marshal race1 raceL1 combat1 pvp5 pvp4 pvp3 pvp20,1,0 Posted Aug 2, 2016, 10:06 am Last edited Aug 2, 2016, 10:14 am by *Brunwulf*

But most players have the money to afford these bounties. The other deterrent is the fame hit at your camp. Sometimes this is a big factor why you should always show up for your matches or don't set a squad. So there are things set in place to balance. Whether or not you guys feel this an equal or fair trade-off can be put up for debate. ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Aug 2, 2016, 5:48 pm Last edited Aug 2, 2016, 5:49 pm by *The X Man*

*Brunwulf* Wulf Guard Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals Posts: 1,299 Joined: May 17, 2012 Fair enough X- but leagues are won and lost on points in the end. You shouldn't score points for not taking part- simple as that in my opinion. ......................... vet ww wv e2g gwextrav sssc northernsummer gateautumn deathrce1 marshal race1 raceL1 combat1 pvp5 pvp4 pvp3 pvp20,1,0 Posted Aug 2, 2016, 6:06 pm

Also, the MR and Production boosts take a hit too and those cannot be brought back up by scouting. (This affects the PVP Open Camps). ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Aug 3, 2016, 6:23 am
