ball to score. This doesn’t happen with Strip Ball. As for Frenzy, the
touchdown is scored as soon as the player is pushed into the end zone.
The Frenzy player does not get the 2nd block. |

makes sense. A touchdown is listed as one of the reasons for a turnover. when that ball is carried into the opposing team's endzone, turn is instantly over, and a TD is registered. |
Then again, the frenzied player is still dedicated to his second block, and should get an 'after turnover' block. Specially if the little bastard scored, what better reason to surf him? |

a turnover means your turn is over. |

I think that once the player crosses into the EZ it should be a TD, BUT I would love to see the Frenzy player be able to carry on in rage and still be able to hit the TD scorer again. |
This isn't the NFL. If breaking the plane does not cause a TD on offense it shouldn't on defense either. More like rugby.
If you're able to surf him it's probably because he's stalling.
Adds an extra tactical element to the game.
It's too late now. Galak got the sack. |

Galak didn't write this one. Lucifer and I wrote it on a weary plane ride home from chaos cup. Blame us not Galak. We tried and tried and tried to get it so there are no loop holes and we did a pretty decent job. Even now I'd have to reread all the rules but the intention is that.... Oh I just can't quite remember what the intention was. Must go study and then decide
EDIT: Clear as day. No TD on Bloodlust (OFAB) and TD on frenzy surf. Why? I'll leave that up to you lot to decide
Kodah: Breaking the plane kinda does give an instant TD, you just might run around in the EZ for a bit before the refs raise their hands. Or whatever they do on a BB field. Once your in it's a TD. |

Think it would take away a tactical element of bitzing from a angle so other coach don't get a td. |

nothing with changing the rules makes sense. Just because of the last client was strange in some rules, doesn't meen there should be planned changes in this one. As long as it is possible to code and Kalimar is willing to do it, i think that the official rules should be followed. |

Well, it's up to Kalimar... looks like he is trying to make the client accurate with regards to rules, but I wouldn't mind ofab touchs
Imho, the way it works with the old client is clear, even if it doesn't make sense, oposing end zone with ball = touch |
