5 [url=https://zero-k. info/Forum/Post/193807#193807]Consider the conditions for OA for a second. [/url] 25x metal value doesn't just organically appear in games. When games have progressed to the point where a team has [b]25x[/b] the other team's metal value, it's a sign that the losing team should have resigned [b]a while ago[/b] and decided to drag it on. 5 [url=https://zero-k. info/Forum/Post/193807#193807]Consider the conditions for OA for a second.

7 Consider @B631947 for a moment. It's an 8 minute game consisting majority of hunting down the fleaman. @Jessenxxx's experience was highly negative throughout most of this, I couldn't do my resign on forced hunting down because rooks wanted to win more than play a new game, and more than 2 minutes were wasted on air switching to bombers to get rid of a commander that was in the water. It was only after @Jessenxxx gained control of moep's units that he was able to terra out of the water and run into fleas to die and end the game. 7 Consider @B631947 for a moment.

9 Sure we could enforce social norms, but then moep whines about being "banned" from team games (because at least 2 out of 4 of us do not want to play with him) and thanks to precedents set as far as private hosts go, it effectively boils down to: 9 Sure we could enforce social norms, but then moep whines about being "banned" from team games (because at least 2 out of 4 of us do not want to play with him) and thanks to precedents set as far as private hosts go, it effectively boils down to:

18 This has nothing to do with the current proposal. Overwhelming Advantage is the mechanic in game where you gain vision of the enemy units when you have over 25x their metal value. This has nothing to do with skill advantage. This win button proposal is only a means to end already determined games faster in event the losing team isn't resigning for whatever reason going into OA. 18 This has nothing to do with the current proposal.
