Don’t give Southwest any new ideas for seats. It’s pretty much that already boarding for a flight.

It’s the natural conclusion of Ticketmaster fee increases.

Why would Lynda accept the match?

[–] buycurious@lemmy.world 28 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

It’s in the TOS.

Those with better seats are always subject to being challenged, with an automatic acceptance if brought forward.

Got it. It should inform you how many time have you defended your spot, so after like 4 or 5 times defending, people stop challenging you.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

That's fair, but the number of defenses required should be more for better/ closer seats.

You can always be challenged, but you're not going to challenge someone who already defended their place 5 times, when you have other people that have not being challenged yet or have only defended once.

Ok, makes sense. And what about during the Main Event? Are challenges allowed between rounds? Or during them? And for point of clarification, it's the one who has been challenged that gets to name the mode of combat, e.g. SuperSquirters at 10 paces? Or would they have to appoint a Second?

I've been reading up a bit, trying to understand human relationships: https://people.howstuffworks.com/duel1.htm And I'm not really sure how this all applies to NonBinary people?

Imo, challenges should be close 24hs before the event. Let the winners rest and enjoy their victory.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 2 points 21 hours ago

I think that would really change the tenor of the event. We might need to get a consensus on that.

If she doesn't accept the fight, everyone will know she's weak.

Because Ticketmaster is a monopoly and they know they have you over a barrel.
