ECO: Encyclopædia of Controversial Occurrences
Below are some questions posed to FM moderators about their set of rules for each game. We all run our games differently and we hope this guide will resolve some confusion. Other FM moderators are free to edit this post to fill out how they handle each situation.
Below are some questions posed to FM moderators about their set of rules for each game. We all run our games differently and we hope this guide will resolve some confusion. Other FM moderators are free to edit this post to fill out how they handle each situation.
Before using this guide, keep in mind the following:
- GFM will be run under Obiwan's rules.
- CFM will be run under the co-moderator's rules.
- Any game run by FMbot (work in progress) will be run under the rules of the respective game moderator's rules.
- A game moderator may change their rules over time, but shall run each individual game with a consistent set of rules.
- If a * is by the role, this means there is an unanswered question by one or more moderators under that role.
