Accepted Basic ruleset for Deathrun

Since we have no Deathrun MOTD or any rules right now, I came up with a basic Deathrun ruleset which will work for any Deathrun server. Obviously global rules like harassment, micspam, etc are still inplace but these are Deathrun specific rules and could help out with any ruleset being made at the moment.

Don't delay the round
Don't trapspam/trapsteal as Death
Don't give free passes as Death
Don't ghost (info on traps, location of Death/Runners, etc)
Don't teamkill

 

Don't bait/leech @Darktooth

 

Yeah, I agree with the no trap stealing rule. I was playing earlier and I was standing in front of a trap button clearly waiting to use it and another one of the death's ran up and stole it via "claiming" it. It was on the prison map and he pressed C on it to claim it.

 

speed leeching?

 

Creating a bind that allows you to bhop in a perfect circle, gaining infinite speed and therefore being able to clear the map in 2 or 3 jumps. Basically an exploit

 

That speed-leeching thing is... questionable. All it is is pre-speeding to gain a lot of velocity to go faster. I don't think it should be against the rules.

 

Yeah, but if you speed hack you could get similar results by different means. The only way I could see it being mitigated is to start runners in an invisible lane that restricts that kind of movement.

I get there are good players, but it could ruin someone's experience if they're on the Death side of things.

However, depending on how long it takes for them to build momentum, it could end up being delaying.

 

I suggest adding the rule of "No Death Avoiding"

Basically no killing yourself as death, leaving and coming back to be death, etc.

 

There's a reason runners start in a square box, to allow bhoppers to gain momentum, restricting this would be a huge negative and ruin the mode.
