Dear TO,

Please clarify the rules on how saves are spent. Thank you.

XOXO,

I'm actually saving Mongoosey from your match, mojojojo. The save from Mongoosey was declared first and I believe I became available to do so after my match with Kelala was done, within the allowable timeframe.

Plus, I hope the TO can chime in on the 'save' clarifications.

[mojojojo]

Declaring save for Kelala, since I believe it is valid.

Sorry, it was a very long day and I'm on phone, so I'll make it quick.

A save is option is only spent when the attempt had been made. Declaring it doesn't cost u a save point.

Also, Mojojo's save attempt post is invalid for having edited it.

I strongly disapprove of that call. People from every guild have been unable to make saves due to having members tied up by people claiming saves, most of which never eventuated. How is that within the rules? The only way using a save option should be 'invalid' is if its made illegally, if someone has already challenged or is outside 24hrs. In all other cases it should just be unsuccessful.

That's a rubbish call. People from every guild have been unable to make saves due to having members tied up by people claiming saves, most of which never eventuated. How is that within the rules?

well....some things are unforeseen?

[Rayzie]

I've edited my post since then because I felt I came across as overly harsh. Leniency was made to allow people to declare saves without anyone being available. Logic follows that this means it is being used.

[Rayzie]

The unforeseen part is whether, assuming both teams have save attempts, both saves are valid, since its the same matchup for both attempts.

[mojojojo]

Declare save for kelala, not edited.
