Most of these concerns again are false and just more ways you invent to disparage the idea. It really doesn't make sense either because the problems you seem to be trying to invent are largely problems you have to face with CotHing.

1. You have 1 tracker outside the racers. You don't need a map. This is better than the current CotH'ing as you have less people near spawns.
2. You don't need fraps or evidence gathering. 2 racers from a guild is easy to follow and police without headaches.
3. Reduce variance. Also waiting at the starting point is the same as being ready to CotH for 16 hours. Again seems like you are describing the problems with what we currently have.. not what we could have. Although it has been said many times...put lower variance into your proposal.
4. Starting points already exist with CotH'ing.

I will make another point because I have seen you post something a few times now. We in TMO have strategies faster than CotHing that doesn't involve CotH ducking. CotHing was never very innovative or appealing to us to ever do because competition that is fair to everyone is what most of us desire. We chose not to implement strategies to this point to push this to even further extremes. I just want you to personally know this was never an "Arms race". We can turn it into that whenever we choose. Yet we don't. Because we hope common sense eventually wins out.

LOL Are you kidding me??? wtf

edit providing you a link to why this would not work: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...=168758&page=2

Evidence is posted then forumquested into demanding more evidence with logs and timestamps with satellite images with tells and locs by more then 1 person at the same time...

even though the evidence was clear it was still spun and pissed on by TMO to demand more evidence and spin rules to favor themselves.

Nope not kidding. It would never arise.

Edit: As for your edit. That shows exactly what having too many people at the spawn causes. Drama and petitions.

that shows that TMO will do anything they can to get mobs..by allowing FFA on sim repop they would lose mobs.. its all about TMO here... you say this is about Takens Agenda.. but in reality its about TMO.. explain to me how FFA sim repop (not in a wall of text) would be bad for anyone and NOT allow for true competition?

False. Trust me we have quite a few strategies that could have taken this to further extremes. We don't use them.

i'm not seeing an answer? this only explains that TMO already has strats in place to win FFA mobs using "foot racing"..again trying to push foot racing (their own agenda) which would guarantee them mobs.

which in turn states that FFA only on sim repops would get rid of such possibilities and focuses on TRUE competition...
