Synonyms: decide, determine, settle, rule, conclude, resolve
These verbs mean to come to a decision. Decide is the least specific: "If two laws conflict with each other, the courts must decide on the operation of each" (John Marshall).
Determine often involves somewhat narrower issues: A jury will determine the verdict.
Settle stresses finality of decision: "The lama waved a hand to show that the matter was finally settled in his mind" (Rudyard Kipling).
Rule implies that the decision is handed down by someone in authority: The committee ruled that changes in the curriculum should be implemented.
Conclude suggests that a decision, opinion, or judgment has been arrived at after careful consideration: She concluded that the criticism was unjust.
Resolve stresses the exercise of choice in making a firm decision: I resolved to lose weight.
decider
(General Sporting Terms) the point, goal, game, etc., that determines who wins a match or championship
Eventhough your teams quite retarded acts and flame before the match even started would have been reason enough to not play a 3rd map^^
Also it wasnt like we were bashed on supply and then luckily won radar. It was a fair and tight match so a draw is quite fair. We won 4-0 the last time^^
SCARED :<
Weaker teams could have a little luck and win a lotto map and then just use this rule to their advantage, which is rly unfair =d i think i'd do a snoop-action if that were to happen to me :p
giving forfeit wins to teams is also not the right way of doing it :d but if this rule wasnt there, teams might actually finish their game :p
ps. about the pb thing.. u said that the moment pb is disabled in an esl game, that'd be the moment you quit et :d why not do it like killerboy suggested? whats so wrong with doing what he said? you let people connct to the server, check all guids and then disable pb... if someone wanted to use a detected bot, he'd be screwed after he connected to the server... and well peopl with a private bot wouldn't be detected by pb anyway, so whats the point of pb anymore? i wouldnt whine about it if it didnt give me shitlags :p
