September-December Flagging Should Be Brought Back

The current flagging system is just bad, all the reasons are in other threads but the main reason is the whinning it creates.

The system where you flag and turn to grey had some problems, but it worked better then the current system. Yes farming was annoying but farming still occurs, and it is even worse because you cannot just remove yourself from the game if you are not in the last position. Instead you sit there and watch the farmer drain your dom with no control over the situation besides suiciding out and the smart farmer won't even kill you then.

Bring back the flag and surrender system it was the best flagging system.

bah that wasn't even a rant, whatever.

Keep the current flagging system and add a "surrender" button.

No no no no no no no no no.....kdice sucked sooo bad in those months, I pretty much quit playing.

Perhaps adding a 'suicide' option to the current system would help?

Agree with every Sophalis said and slo it createas Flag panic which is truly annoying.

Flagging could be a system to indicate your intentions, but should not have to be accepted by any of the players. Just because you wish to surrender and survive doesn't mean it fits in with anybody elses plans.

Sophalis, as far as #1 goes, most people allow other to fight it out for positions upon request.

For #4, ninja flags are rarely respected and more often then not the person just ends up getting killed by first.

As to the rest of your points, they refer to situations which occur VERY rarely and only when people are not smart enough to look out for their own back, especially the one about two people flagging for 2nd and killing first, this only ever happens if 1st was an asshole or was attacking the other two unjustly (again, this happens rarely)

I disagree about returning to the old flagging system but do agree that there should be an automatic-flag button added.

my ideal flag system: keep current system but add surrender option + prevent flagging before round 5 or 7 + prevent ninja flag when your #dice and dice/land is obviously not in correlation (new RC lol) with the place you flag for
