Gamey Tactics and Bug Exploits Thread

Tesco, please take that to another thread. Again, this is NOT a list of things that ARE gamey, it is a list of things that MIGHT BE gamey, and are what game hosts need to consider when setting up the game. What they decide to state as allowed or not is up to them.

Tesco, again the objective is not to generate a discussion as to whether any of these are gamey. It's simply intended to be a list for referance by game owners so they can decide what is and isn't going to be allowed in their games. It's to be used only as a checklist so they don't forget something and have it come back to bite them later in the game.

Edit, too slow.

Geo, do you think you could get some form of this list once it is completed in the default game description when creating a new game on PBW? Or if you do not want it there, at least in a very noticeable place in the game creation page, such as a link towards the top of it.

I don't know if the whole list is necceasary, but we could revise what is currently there and put some sort of reminder to the game owners to consider these kinds of things when setting up the game.

Hence, "some form of the list".

Thanks!

A really good topic Fyron!! Thanks!
Oh, by the way, why exchange population would be gamey???

Just kidding, just kidding.

Maybe a link to some place you can keep the list updated. As new bug exploits are discovered and if and when any patches coem out the list will likely change.
