Declaration of Victory: He Shoves, He Scores

This DoV “has been open for voting for 12 hours, has a number of FOR Votes that exceed or equal Quorum, and either the Announcer has Voted FOR it or it has no AGAINST Votes”, with 8 votes in favour and none against.

Having just pushed Coppro into an Acid Pool, I find myself with eleven Frags and one Foul.

From Rule 2.6: “A Gladiator’s Audience Appreciation is equal to the number of their Fouls subtracted from the number of their Frags. The first Gladiator to reach an Audience Appreciation of 10 achieves victory.”

Unless my buzzsaw tinnitus is deceiving me, the sound of the crowd suggests that my Audience Appreciation has hit the level required for victory.

Yep. Sounds fair to me.

Just out of interest, in the Victory and Ascension section does:

“It has been open for voting for at least 24 hours, has a number of FOR Votes that exceed or equal Quorum, and has a number of against Votes fewer than half of Quorum, rounded down.” mean that the Quorum, which is always rounded up, rounded down *instead*? Because you can’t re-round a rounded number by the same increment, if you do, then you get the same number. Shouldn’t this rule say “minus one” instead of “rounded down” to offset the definition of Quorum in Rule 3.1?

[Anduril] It’s “half of Quorum” that’s being rounded down. Quorum is 6, half of Quorum is 3.

Congratulations. I think this is the first non scam-generated victory since I joined. An achievement :P

for Finally. I pretty much conked out of this the last few weeks but was too lazy to even idle lol. Course now with a hurricane gunning for NY state Idk how active I’ll be if the next dynasty starts soon. *shrugs* Ah well, its a Kev dynasty so it’ll be fun. Oh, and $10 says that Kev offically hits double digit dynasties before New Years, given that this new one should be his 9th. I don’t count that little hiccup at the start of his 8th.
