Liquid quit, and DesireMe being the last survivor of the previous round was brought back in.


It's been done before, I guess you haven't been around long enough to recall.

Maybe it's been done before, but I don't think you should get a second chance like that, in my opinion.

Yeah.. Not sure what else they could do but it does seem a little unfair.

I thought i remember something about how if one person leaves, the other 5 are put in a free for all or something.  :-/

I didnt even ask to get back into Tripplex and I'm pretty sure Bill that if given the chance you'd have gone back into it and not be crying about it now.  That being said, if you want to talk about doing something different to tripplex why dont you post it in suggestions.  I think it's sad how no one posted anyone congradulating Mest for winning but instead right away started complaining.
  Congrats Mest!

Yeah, that happened to me one time as well. I was walking around in BT then *zap* i'm in the Triplex waiting room thinking wtf? My team lost though :(

Title: Re: 16/8/2003 Triplex
Post by Bill on 08/16/03 at 23:52:04
Actually, i never enter triplex any more(or moshes for that matter), have a few times ages ago, but that's not the point. I was merely posting as i think it's kinda unfair to get second chances, whereas noone else does.  :-/

Congrats Mest!  ;D

As for the people complaining, I see nothing wrong with DesireMe getting back in. And if it were me, I wouldn't have said no if I were offered back in. If you don't like it, tough luck, come up with something else and post it in the suggestion forum.

I see nothing wrong with her being pulled back in. In most contests, if the winner of a round can't continue for some reason, the first runner up gets the slot, as is the case here.

I'm just glad it wasn't my alt that was pulled back in, cause if it were...this would have turned into another


JEN IS CHEATIN! FIRE HER!!!! threads   ::)

WooT! go Ryan.

Ya..doesnt seem like people are usually pulled back in after they die, last couple of times it seems like they either just played with 2v3 or had someone page to try to get in, but i dont really see why people should whine about it...the person who came back didnt win...

Like I said previously, it's been done before.


It's JLH's game, he sets the rules.

Still doesn't mean there right, and from what I've seen quite a few people don't agree with them. It is a bit unfair to put someone back in even after they've lost. I expect it would be fairer just to do a system message saying 'We have a spare place, first person to page me gets in' No way that could be fixed, so people won't have anything to complain about.

This time maybe, but next time someone might win, despite the fact that they lost in round one (or whatever round it was)

How come noone complained the previous times it's been done? Why now? ::)

This is the first time I've seen it happen.

Yeah, maybe this is the first time we noticed it, duh.

Why do people who 'quit the game' insist on continuing to post?

I below shall copy and paste a rule which as far as I have been informed is still in place as written, approved and announced many months ago:

/system Last week, we decided that bringing people in as replacements was giving that replacement an unfair advantage, we have now decided a solution for that problem. Anyone that logs off or demands to leave the contest after the last match of the first round will not be replaced. At the end of round 2/3 (with 12/6 people left in theory), if there are less than 12/6 people, we put those people in the arena and let them attack whom they want, (they can team if they wish), until there are 3 of you left. Those 3 will re-fill pots/mana and continue in the next round as normal.

I believe the last 4-5 saturdays while I have been on vacation JLH has run the triplex completely alone which isn't easy. If he chose to change/ignore/adopt the rules to keep the event flowing, he is well within his rights.

There was no rule against it anyway. Stop moaning, it's over and done with now.

I'm not whinning for the simple fact.. that I could careless. I thought when someone had to leave or whatever.. they DID ask someone to page them to get in.
