Allows you to still gain ELO from people you are much higher from.

IE, users start out at 1250... but can fall to low. So if you are 1600 you still gain ELO from 1250, etc. People will lose more points, things will be more accurate more or less.

To clarify, does this mean ALL TOWNS are subject to TNT damage during war time, NOT just towns in Nations?

I read somewhere that war was from 12-2, is this correct? I thought I read it was all day. If it is indeed 2 hours, please consider increasing it, as once every two weeks with a really low buyout price seems pretty lame.

It starts at lunch on Saturday, goes til 11:59PM CST .... I guess we could do it from Lunch to Lunch (Saturday / Sunday) - but no where was the specific 12-2 stated.

All towns. This is a side effect of the current system - later, it will just be those in nations warring. However, that's not coded and it's a catch all for now.

 

[FaZeAlpine]

Couple questions I have for war clarification:

1. Can anybody place down TNT, or is it just restricted to engineers and miners?
2. Also if it is restricted, at what levels do they get the newly created skills?
3. Is TNT the only way to destroy blocks, or can anyone also just mine?
4. Can you place blocks in chunks that you claimed?
5. Will this affect my love life? And will I have to change my sexuality for this event? (Asked by @Zelphril)

So for this War and any until the system is adjusted the only difference between buying out and staying in is that if you opt out you are not a part of the point system (and consequently only in real danger if someone were to have a grudge or see inactivity in a town)?

My understanding so far is - only miners and engineers will have TNT placement, they get their new skills at 50, blocks in towns will be protected from damage other than by TNT, no block placement in fallen townblocks (pretty sure), and... (a) what love life? (b) optional, not obligatory.

Being in war you:
1) when you die in pvp, get robbed 5c
2) when your town loses a chunk it gets robbed 25c
3) all switches toggle in warring zones to use.

etc
