no one said back when it happened i wasn't allowed to do it because it extended the round. they said i wasn't allowed to do it because it could unfairly affect the top 3
Why are you yelling at me? I'm being pretty reasonable right now.
You chose not to play your hearts when you were tied because you wanted to wait to get more hearts to try and get gold. The days caused due to a tie are meant for tiebreakers, not for people who game the system to give them an advantage over people who should've won already. The round is supposed to end when 2K is broken. When that happens, you have to play all of your hearts, especially if you are tied and have extra hearts to spare.

You don't have to do anything you don't want to. Just outright refuse. This is beyond petty, sorry.
THIS WAS NOT A FACTOR IN THE DECISION TO FORCE ME TO PLAY MY HEARTS, SO YOU CAN'T ARGUE THAT IT'S CHANGE IS THE FACTOR THAT ALLOWS KERI TO REMAIN UNFORCED

I stopped reading after the third post or so. Connor, you're being outrageous. If Keri doesn't want to play her hearts, why the hell should she be forced to do so? She didn't even want to play any of her last 10 hearts because she wasn't even running. It was only because a few of us encouraged her that she did so. No one is obliged to play mafia, should they choose not to.
The main difference is keri is choosing not to play her hearts and isn't in a position where she is forcibly extending the round by doing so. That is the critical difference.
Ah I see, that is a bit different then. I'm not too sure how I feel about that situation, but I do think it's unfair to intentionally tie the round with extra hearts to go for a better trophy.
If you lost you could've tied and had a shot again anyway. Forcibly extending the round while you have an extra heart isn't really fair to others.
i was told i was not allowed to save my hearts with intent to change the standings because it's not fair to change the standings in such a way. keri isn't playing her hearts with the intention of changing the standings. THEY ARE THE SAME. THE EXTRA DAY IS IRRELEVANT. WHY IS IT ALLOWED? WHY IS IT "FAIR" ONLY BECAUSE IT HELPS HER FRIEND INSTEAD OF HERSELF?
no. you misunderstand. i was tied for bronze. i wanted a shot at gold the next day. i was told not to because i shouldn't be allowed to affect the standings for people who have "locked in" their place.
no it's not you idiot bronto is literally telling you that you're not allowed to intentionally tie a round because it's abusing a mechanic of competition to help yourself or others jesus christ keri didn't abuse anything people can choose to stop playing their hearts whenever they want when it doesn't screw with the whole round
It's different because you're forcing a tie in a situation where you don't have to. If you're tied for gold with an extra heart, you can win a game that day and end the round. If you fail, then you tie and get 5 hearts anyway and get to try again. If you're intentionally forcing a tie in a situation where you can at least attempt to avoid it, then that's different.
Keri not playing her hearts doesn't delay the round any further, she's just allowing genneh to win gold. This is no different than fotl allowing Riot and Steven to both win.
