Seriously, which situation would YOU rather deal with when attempting to make a trade?

And if one of your Worlds established the "black-and-white rule" of "No trades where OVR are more than one point difference. This cannot happen. Ever."

My World, on the other hand, says "Well, some trades with more than a 1 point difference in OVR are OK. Not all. Some may not be OK, but I'll let you know when you get there."

Seriously, which situation would YOU rather deal with when attempting to make a trade?

Simple, which you are being, has its place, but it is NOT always the better way to have things be. This is one of those other cases where flexibility in trading - as a general rule - does more for the "good of a World" than the "evil" you imagine in your doomsday fears.



Very SIMPLE, I want to know when I make a deal that resembles a previous approved deal that it will be approved. I don't know these internet people. I just want to be treated the same as everyone else. SIMPLE works best when dealing with anonymous strangers.

If a deal is OK at game 12 between two owners, an identical deal(or deals) should be OK at game 110. If it's not, the rejected owners should do everything within their power to screw that world over. They're not getting a fair shake.



You've missed a couple Rule 5 debacles. Or you are just engaging is hyperbole again.

And both of the "black-and-white rules" I offered are very SIMPLE. IF you are not within 1 OVR, veto. If you are within 1 OVR - OK. If you are not dealing same position for same position, veto. If you are dealing SS for SS, OK.

SIMPLE. As you like it. Also, very retarded.

It's called "not wasting time".

Your point?

I said "Very SIMPLE, I want to know when I make a deal that resembles a previous approved deal that it will be approved. I don't know these internet people. I just want to be treated the same as everyone else. SIMPLE works best when dealing with anonymous strangers."

Does this go against some scenario you presented?

Seriously, can you read AND comprehend?
