Awesome, I'm glad. That's one thing I'm getting real sick of. I'm glad it's being changed.

Well, the thing is (my rant in the "complaining" thread about winning the game) is that you don't cap flags to win the game, you kill people to win the game.

We (RFAD) demonstrated this very well in the tourney. The battle was EJOD Desert. The US capped the square, and we didn't attack it. We just got in defensive positions, and completely owned them. They would attack, and we would just mow them down from our defensive positions. There was a 200 ticket difference before they RETREATED (when have you ever heard of that happening) becuase we were owning them so hard.

EDIT:
Okay, I see what you mean, you mean that people loaf around, not in defensive positions, or offensive positions, and do nothing. I agree with you that this is stupid.

While having less deaths does mean more tickets, if you can push the enemy far enough along the CP order they will bleed, where as if you don't and just defend 1 or 2 CP or whatever you are more likely to bleed.

Plus it's more fun to actually try and push forward IMO. :)
