Problem is if we target the lowest HP people we can probably kill 2 this round leaving 10 players which takes it down to solo play and eliminates the no show team member situation anyway, doesn't it? If we go after the guys that aren't playing we will maybe kill one player, at best, this round and then we just drag out the situation further anyway.
Another problem, for me, is that from a moral perspective I don't really want to take out any of the folks who have been regular players, but in the same way the whole game is flawed if we're keeping the opponents best players in the game.
It's a crazy situation now because most likley I am gonna end up targeting the no shows from my opponents team and even then we will still end up with another team round that, most likley our team will win cause we have less no shows. I could and should be targeting ferret or bwind22, who are clearly still more commited and better at the game/ have more time and desire to play, but instead I'm gonna end up targeting my opponents worst player just to restore some element of fair play.
My personal opinion is that there should be some way of targeting your own team members. That way the folks who don't have time for the game would've been removed earlier.
None of that should be seen as a criticism of the game or any individuals though. I think some people could've pulled themselves out the game earlier, but really, we all have busy lives and things get in the way, its just the way it is. Also, I think 'V' has done a fine job keeping the game ticking over and I'm sure its taken a ridiculous amount of time and effort to make it happen, so no complaints, just a little frustration. :)
