So I legit copied this from Tapatalk, because I was struggling to find things recently and remembered I had this. Follow the guidelines below. If something has changed since 2018 when we were working on this feel free to post the updated ruling. Please have some sort of reference point too. It is the next line, but again THIS IS NOT A DISCUSSION.
Ok, this isn't discussion. If you have a rule that you believe people know, but don't see it documented we need to post it here. I'm going to delete any discussion and any spamming. Just trying to get things out that people assume people know, but might not know. I'm going to edit in things as I think of them (or get time to actually add to this). This doesn't need to include admin rulings as condensing that is already in progress.
The goal is that I want to get this with every little hidden bit of information people have and after we finish it off, discuss in another topic and then after that no more, I always knew it this way argument. After we get a full list we can have it maybe added to the main site, but if nothing else can add it to the forum.
Battles:
- Maneuvers take up an action. It isn't listed on the site for whatever reason. And I don't have the logs to prove it. But Maneuvers takes an action.
- Ki Well covers the technique cost. It does not cover the power up "Energy Charger" or "Energy Doubler" or "Empowerment" or anything like that. Just the technique cost.
- No Stopping a Solar Flare without an item that specifically says it stops a Solar Flare. You can cover your eyes for reduced crit chance at 1 action cost.
- If you cannot agree on a ref one will be provided by a neutral 3rd party
- Pummel and Lightning Strike do not stack.
- You cannot gain a method of jumping a battle after it starts in order to jump that battle.
- Near Death perks that rely on DET to be higher than your opponent work off the highest DET on the opposing side like counters.
- Telepathy works on the first legal tech to telepathy dodge. Tiger Claw works on the first tech after Telepathy if Telepathy is also known.
- You can not Reflect a Reflect because it is like a Counter.
- AOE hits the entire battlefield, allies and enemies both.
- When a Ref post is up the battle freezes. No Jumping here either. Once the ref posts the 24 hours starts then.
- The ref has 24 hours to post before a natural 24 hour rule begins again. If he posts after that the timer is not extended. The max amount of time allowed here is 48 hours if the ref posts right at 24 hours from the 3 turn of the round.
- When you jump a battle it doesn't extend the side you jump for timer, but the opponent gets an additional 12 hours. (Recently agreed on by staff)
- No Telepathy (1st Attack against) vs Flame Shield (On the I hit you now I take damage side of the tech) since Flame Shield is when you hit them you can't dodge hitting them. Telepathy dodging a first attack from a punch is legit even if they have flame shield and thus the flame shield stays at full charges and isn't used.
- A Physical attack can have the sequence of ex: SA -> Counter -> Ice Blast -> Transmute. You can not transmute a transmute (per Junior)
- Rush defenses are All or Nothing and will require ST's to get the Nothing side of things.
- Passive Weapon Techs do not require a Weapon Tech Slot.
- New Admin Rulings do not impact ongoing battles. Issues that come up from battle should be handled by the people involved, the ref and the battle mod if we get to that point.
- Anything that absorbs an attack can negate an entire AoE. Otherwise, each person has to deal with it on their own. (Admin Ruling)
- Blast Cancels negate the entire AoE. If the AoE is targeted, the cancel only affects the attacks thrown at you. (Admin Ruling)
Roleplays:
- If you RP with your SS or Tri Soul it doesn't get past the solo negatives. This also doesn't count towards Token totals.
- Page says 33% not 1/3 for Required on group posts. Yes this is a picky thing, but it is a difference in a few words.
Updates:
- When you claim food rewards for spars they only are active for the most recent week you claim them and 1 food per week can be eaten.
- Always have a link to your previous Update on your current Update. (Sidenote: Also nice to have your wiki on your signature section)
- When you use an item that isn't your own you need a link where they have in their update that they are allowing such a usage.
- If you level a Fighting Style in any way (Battle, Spar, Train for Stats) It doesn't reset the timer on the others.
- You can not read the same book/scroll/guide in both slots.
- The max spars you can do in a week is 3. This can be superseded by site wide events where everyone has the option for an additional spar.
Other:
- DBs work different from other things in the sense that you can be snuck for them before your claim for them has been approved.
- Any Rule of a battle can be bypassed if everyone involved in the battle actually agrees on it. (Please Note this on the post so it isn't used later to debate) Otherwise follow the rules.
- You have 48hrs to reply to a sneak. If you do not reply or give a clear answer in that time, you forfeit the item or zeni.
- Staff should not approve Updates that directly impact their character (Trades, Allowing someone to jump to help you, etc)
- You need to actually own the right to create a custom tech or item in order to post that you are creating a custom tech or item. Links can be asked for. (Recent Staff Discussion)
- A Celestial using the Racial Perk can build/read/cook while in the ND with that perk.
- You need zeni to buy an item even if you are selling it on that same update.
- During a ToM you can't battle just to avoid being sneak attacked. The battle has to be a legit threat or a legit sneak. These will be looked at on Case to Case basis. (What I was told by Chishan when I suggested Training Battling someone to avoid the sneak.) This extends to other type of Planet Destruction as well.
- Techniques that are specifically taught by the Grand Priest can only be taught by the Grand Priest. You can't use Site Masters, Lucifer or Grand Kai as work arounds.
- Even if you are running an official site event you need to have all items created approved by mods or admins before allowing them to be purchased.
- Martial Arts Master - It requires 10 week of consecutive training with a Master, but that Master can change. Mastery 2 is the same way just 10 more weeks.
