You're right this weekend's game had potential to escalate. One of the things that needs toimprove is communication of game on. While the organge side received a prompt game on from Dutch on Saturday it was a diferent stroy on Sunday. A 30 to 60 second delay in hearing game on can result in just such an event as ocurred Sat morning. And I know if you start a game unable to get out of your base its no fun, been there. People leave making the situation worse. They find it easier to claim cheating and wiping and a desire to even it out by doing the same. One of my biggest peeves is the attitude that if someone is perceived as cheating then by jove I'll do it too and I'll just keep on shooting until they leave or succumb to my flood of paint. No, this is a game of fun. That doesn't mean that it isn't hard work to keep it so, but its worth the effort.
