Proposal: This shouldn’t be an issue but…

At 1-7, cannot be enacted without CoV. Failed. -coppro

In the Rule ‘Death and Scorekeeping’, change the text

A Gladiator can never receive a Frag for their own Death, or more than one Frag for the same Death.

to

A Gladiator can never gain a Frag for their own Death, or more than one Frag for the same Death, even if this rule or another rule would cause them to gain one.  Rules should not allow Gladiators to gain Frags except in conjunction with a Death.

Some people in IRC were arguing that rules causing frags to be gained would override the “can’t receive Frags” somehow.  I do not agree with their reasoning, but am proposing to ‘patch’ it anyway.

against this is a no-op.

against I don’t see how a Gladiator could receive more then one frag for the same Death. If someone would care to explain to me the loophole this supposedly closes, I might change my mind. :-)

against That some anonymous IRC chat “somehow” says we need this isn’t very compelling. Isn’t it covered by the Prioritisation section of the Appendix?

I start to wonder who “some people” are, because it seems that no one agrees with them….
