angry russian man,

Everyone breaks the rules. It's like traffic laws; everyone breaks them when there's no traffic police around.

It's easy to play against someone who breaks the rules. You just catch them violating a rule, and that's a win. :)

The most important rule is to only go through a cleared Gate of the Abyss.

angry russian man,

it's not my fault that they are breaking the rules. Are you suggesting that I should blindly follow every single rule, while my opponent disregards and violates them left and right?:)

That happened. It seems Leta got penalized for using "pp" instead of "ppp".

what's interesting is that the analysis of the episode with "pp" ended perfectly

they changed the rules for the better

so if anyone is unhappy with the rule about two DD - suggest how to change the wording of the rule for the better, so that it can be applied to the situation under discussion without falling into despair

Rules can't prevent it! I myself have twice found myself in situations where I made 2 double-damage (DD) moves in important tournament games "in the heat of battle" (once on Jebel and once on 8MM6, where only one DD was allowed). Such restrictions need to be implemented functionally, at the code or text file level. Players often break the rules without realizing it, and without any intention. And it's not the players' fault in these violations, but rather the bugs that appear on the map. If I see a path and can go there, I will go there, but there should be a guard or there shouldn't be... spare me from these deliberations by correctly rendering the map. Make it so that I can't break the rules, but just play. Therefore, the players' responsibility should be adequate - and not at the cost of the game (for example, introduce a point system for results, 0.7 to 0.3 instead of 1-0, or introduce "-0.1" for not showing up).

The rules can't do anything about it! I myself twice ended up in situations where I used 2 Dimension Doors in important tournament games "in the heat of battle," so to speak (once on Jebe and once on 8MM6, where only one Dimension Door was allowed). Such restrictions must be implemented functionally, at the code or text file level. A player very often breaks rules without suspecting it and without any intent. And these violations are not the players' fault—it is all due to what was rendered on the map with bugs. If I see a passage and can go there, then I go there, regardless of whether there should be guards or not... spare me from these reflections by rendering the map correctly. Make it so that I cannot break the rules, but only play. Because players' responsibility should be adequate—and not at the cost of the match (for example, introduce a point-based result system, 0.7 to 0.3 instead of 1-0, or introduce "-0.1" for no-shows).

Well, you just formulated one of the goals of creating TE/WT.

rebellious, you've basically written "I am unable to read and remember the rules and apply them during the game."
This is exactly the short and precise description of the problem being discussed here -
some players are unable to read and understand/remember the rules.
(laziness, mental weakness, indifference, or something else - everyone can find the reason within themselves)
For some reason, some of them (not all) feel that they should be paid attention to and that something should be done with the rules. What exactly - it's unclear.
It's like kindergarten, isn't it?

Is reading and remembering that only one Dimension Door is allowed really such a difficult task? Think about it again - is this an insurmountable task?
control spells are the strongest in the game. Is it really impossible to pay attention to them?

WHY should I memorize anything if the game lets me do DD 2 or 4 times???
