[Answered] Deathgames: Rewarding The Winning Player(s) with a Freeday

[Gumline]

Why is it that now CT's are not allowed to reward those who want to play a deathgame and win with a freeday? I don't see it being a special order, I see it as a reward for participating and winning the deathgame. Now that giving the winning T a freeday is no longer allowed it's going to be that much more difficult to get Ts to volunteer for a deathgame when the winner just gets sent back to the rest of the Ts.

where does it say you cant give a t a freeday after winning a deathgame?

 

that's not a special order

There are certain special orders we allow, the special orders rule is meant to stop CTs from abusing single Ts, like putting them in ISO all round. I think giving a T a free day for winning a deathgame is fine.

This wasn't mentioned anywhere and I treated it as it wasn't a special order before, but a reward. But another admin (Don't remember who) told me that it falls under the no special orders and that you couldn't give a freeday to the T(s) that win deathgames unless you give freedays to the other Ts that are still alive. That's how I've treated it the past couple of days.

A few of us discussed this topic here, more than likely you will find your answer in that thread.

 

Basically Slade wraps it all up with this quote

I can understand your mindset of how giving a winner of a deathgame a freeday for surviving, but it's completely different from a special order. An example of a special order would be "All T's go to big cage, except for EZrebeller69, he will go to isolation". The player who survived the death game did just that, survived a game where a loss would result in death, therefore, he can be given a freeday as an award.

 

Since the dawn of time when JB was a new gamemode, rewards were given for surviving a deathgame. Back then, if you won, you survived, and your life was your reward. (It's a lot different now, deathgames used to be forced) If we were to keep saying that giving a freeday after surviving a deathgame is a special order, then we might as well say that asking to go somewhere to play a deathgame with willing participants is a special order; and that would make jailbreak boring as hell.

 

Instead of a freeday as an award, you can tell them to go play somewhere restricted, or give suggestions of where all the rest of the T's should go. If a deathgame survivor wants to S4S, and two parties agree, do an LR early. He earned it, he deserves it. However, he is still a prisoner, so he is not entitled to anything more then his life for winning a deathgame IF the CT's choose. If you don't like it, then rebel.

 

TL;DR: Instead of giving the T that wins the DG a freeday offer him the ability to choose where the Ts get to go next or offer the T a restricted area he can go to while the other Ts do another activity.

Yeah Cam and I along with some others were just playing Tropical Island and this came up. I posted this to clear it up because I know I'm not the only CT who rewards the winner(s) of a deathgame with a freeday. Thanks for sorting this out guys!

P.S. Delirium let me know when you wanna s4s with reg skin for a 12 round slay XD

You can still give them a freeday for the current round as well.
