[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: (some of these may already exist, but are pre-v17 and might need to be reviewed)

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: yeah i think some need reviewing

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: ngl once this is done, it wouldnt be nearly as hard to make the games automated

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: yea

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: not saying u should, but it definitely seems much more feasible

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: I put this for now, dont want to try to extend it, idk this seems kinda pointless anyway

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: some of our defs might not be up to date

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: but its pretty good

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: its also a wall of text

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: so idk if this is really useful

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: think ill close this for now

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: arguably hosts also participate in wwr games

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: A person playing a WWR game

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: as yknow

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: thats what player means

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds:

arguably hosts also participate in wwr games

as this can be seen as true

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: i would also argue that defining "alignment" like that isn't really accurate to how we treat it - it's kind of the reverse, more like "a win condition shared by a group of players"

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: yeah i agree

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: the current definition of alignment is more like how we use the word team

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: A win condition that can be shared by one or multiple players

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: the starting ability def is out of date

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: rest seems alright unless you wanna add the team definition
