No examples, just stating what your comment meant.
"How a global, HOF, or ATH is syntaxed in the chat window is how it will be scored" is how your statement could be paraphrased into a rule.
I only stated the obvious ATH as a clear example. Stating extremes is one way to not only illustrate a rule, but also is a way to show the weakeness of some rules or how they can be abused. That's all I was doing.
The global in that thread *should* have been a HOF by all accounts. If you can think of a scenario why it was NOT, please let me know. I was only pointing it out to show that there seems to have been some bugs introduced with the 100-HOF lists, soemthing we didn't have in last year's WOF. It's nice to put a bit of forethought into the rules BEFORE a competition to avoid problems DURING a competition. I detest changing rules in the middle of a game.

I saw the highest

...I think all the teams in the finals were pretty good.

If you are prepared to play by the Rules you will enjoy the WoF, I will make sure of it.
There can't be a Rule for every circumstance possible; the Rules cover everything needed for the Tournament to take place. The Rule that covers everything else is this: My word is final, and it's given after a vote.

Chillax! I'm not doubting your abilities...I just saw a possible situation, an error in recording HOF in the games software, and wanted to bring it to your attention. Prometheus is my god of gods!
The rules are one of my best weapons/tools for the WOF. I'm just making sure they are in good working order.

Hope this sounds ok to you.

I think this addesses this contingency nicely. Thanks!
