summoning off the map

[CYBER]

From what I can see this is the same as getting a player stuck in that they are stuck outside of the map which is something that is obviously not intnded.

last i checked zero, u are able to summon people to their death. Dying = not able to complete objective, so would surviving the fall be considered bad? Not to mention that they would be able to kill that summoned guy that fell outside if needed, just follow him. Whether he died from the summon fall or survived, it should be game over for him nway.... Thats my opinion i guess

people should not be summoned off the map. falling 2 your death is situational and can sometimes be overcome. being summoned 2 be stuck outside the map should not happen or be tolerated.

so if i were to stand on the edge of crackhouse building, facing the back of the map, and summon someone off that cliff IN THE INTENTION OF KILLING THEM, and then that piece of shit happened to survive it somehow.... are u telling me that i'd be breaking a rule? the mere reason why i'd wanna summon behind the building is because it's a higher fall, and almost guarantees 90% instant death for non levitation/fly/tele races.

just curious in case someone asked me.

note, when they appear, they are NOT in the void. they appear on solid ground, and WALK off the edge. that is why it's allowed to "summon people to their death" in such a manner. if, however, there was an area that you could crouch under, but which would immediately kill anything that is not crouched (i'm imagining buzz saws for example), you couldn't summon under them, and the summoned would have zero chance to not die.

what map are you playing that has buzz saws in it? i wanna play it!

[What]

I think it boils down to, if the intent of the summon is to get a player stuck, its not allowed. If the intent is to kill them, but by chance they survive (ie in port if you survive the summon good chance your stuck on that pipe) then its just shitty luck.

it was an example. baically, if you summon someone "to their death" on port or the like, they don't immediately die. they need to walk off the edge first. the slightest movement forward might do it, but they still need to make that movement. as opposed to summoning someone in such a way they they will immediately die, like in my (fictional) example of the buzz saw.

This is not STRICTLY true. Eye of Ra with socks can jump over the area, summon and come back leaving the player with no chances of survival.

de_nightmare, it's a 2 for 1 joy ride. But in all seriousness, if players somehow survive from what was suppose to be a "falling death" and are not a flying race + also stuck (say, summoned an undead but all he does is drift down from where he was suppose to "fall and splat"), then everyone will be staring at each other with their angry eyes until the round ends.
