After the game, I immediately told my opponents that:
01/08/2013 23:11:34, Dirty_Player: In my personal opinion, this is a bug, and a malicious one at that. It should definitely be banned. However, since there was no ban in place, I believe we used it completely LEGALLY. That's my position.
Why is it specifically a bug? Because: Samurai
The berserk bug was clearly not intended in the overall design, neither in the berserk spell itself nor in the game.
If the game's description or manual doesn't mention this property, and the spell doesn't work as it should, then it's clearly a bug. I personally think this bug should be fixed. It's already been banned in offline tournaments, but it's very difficult to regulate and restrict this bug online. I personally can't imagine a situation where wyverns are affected by berserk, skip their turns, but why should I suddenly have to back off so they can start their turns? I can't imagine a situation where I have to move my centaurs = make a weak move, effectively losing the game, even though I could win. :confused: That's why I believe we had every right to use this opportunity. numOne
To talk about whether the rules were violated, it is necessary to first check these rules.
Why are there no rules in this tournament? The ideology of TE/WT is that there should be no rules, i.e., all rules are embedded in the game itself, and all bugs should be fixed programmatically.
Regarding the bug in general, there are several possible solutions: 1. Leave everything as it is. 2. Ban its use by rules. In offline tournaments, there is a rule prohibiting:
5.11. Using "stalling" of a monster under the effect of the "berserk" spell.
i.e., in this case, I would have to let the wyverns take their turn (again, at what point?). 3. Ban it programmatically. Ask Baratortcha to add it to HD+, and asm'a to WT. 4. Completely ban the Berserk spell. No comment. Think for yourselves what is best.
P.S.: This bug can be compared to hit-and-run tactics, when you are attacked several times, hit with Armageddon or Explosion, and they run away, and you can't do anything.
