hmm, but then if we have battle like sunday 19:00 then the next
week we can't have it at sunday 19:00 again we'd have to wait
will sunday 19:30.
so can we have it like 1 week - 1 hour?

I would say no, that makes the rule unnecessarily complex when
you already have to agree on a time. Your motivation to start
the battle a bit earlier could be so you'll have one week from
that point where you don't have to battle that enemy, I forgot
about that, so putting battles exactly one week apart could
still happen if people actually wanted to.
[hr]
There currently are no weapon ristrictions, but you shouldn't
spawn a wither, because you can't control what it damages and
you may end up damaging other zones.
What do people think about DeathChest? Should we allow it in the
battles? Otherwise, the battle may pretty much be determined by
who dies first, because if you lose all your good gear the game
is pretty much over. If lava is involved losing good gear may
not be very fun either.
We could also set ristrictions on the weapons/armor allowed,
such as only unenchanted iron armor and unenchanted bows,
arrows, iron swords, TNT, lava buckets, fire charges... Possibly
other items.
Ender eyes should probably be banned, because they'd make
teleporting to the flag or getting into the base too easy.
I think actually setting these ristrictions and allowing
DeathChests could make the battles much more fun. If people are
less afraid of dying, they are more likely to engage each other
and fight instead of trying to take complex routes to avoid each
other and such. I might implement ristrictions tomorrow unless
people complain or something.

i think we should at least give it a try, because for poor
people, this wouldn't benefit them. but for rich people with
lots of armour, nothing would deterrent them from using their
best, as they have nothing to lose. also, this gives the
attacker a lot more chance to win, as he can just retry and
retry any amount of time, as he'd just get his armor back, and
wouldn't be a bit more conscious of trying to win.

You could still use enchanted items for PvE, and we could also
build a PvP arena somewhere for different kinds of battles,
where we could allow enchants and diamond and stuff.
Updating the rules now:
====Item Regulations====
To make battles more equal/skill based and less expensive,
certain items are banned:
*Diamond swords
*Diamond armor
*Enchanted weapons, tools and armor
*Ender pearls
*Potions
The battling teams may use DeathChest and beds at their respawn
points during the battle, and may not destroy enemy
beds/DeathChests. For this reason, the respawn points should be
located at the edge of the zone.
Is this ok?

I've set up a poll for whether potions should be allowed or not.
Please vote.
Also, we could consider limiting the amount of TNT and possibly
fire charges people can use pr. battle.

all these restrictions seem to defeat the spirit of the
battleground, that is to say: blacraft is a primarily pve server
where pvp is only allowed in the battleground. Now it seems that
pvp too is banned in the battleground, and you are only allowed
a watered-down version of fighting.
instead of banning items, maybe people should just come up with
ways to counter them.
diamond tools and weapons are banned, i'm not sure why. however,
the argument that 'poor people' don't have them and will have
less incentive to battle makes little sense. First of all,
diamond tools and armor are not prohibitively expensive. with
the end exp farm, it's almost a joke to enchant them compared to
before. secondly, most players already do have these tools,
active players like smjjames, yqt, bla, me, etc all have the
diamond items and enchantmnets, so it's not a hindrance.
enderpearls are banned because they let you get up close, but i
think that banning them is the wrong way to handle the problem.
why not instead surround the flag by moats of laval to make
enderpearls a bad idea? what about strategically placed glass
walls? I'm quite sure enderpearls can be easily defended
against.
i'm not sure why potions are banned, but if it's for the same
reason as diamond tools, then the same argument applies
unless you're worried that the tnt will kill the server, i have
no idea why you'd want to limit tnt. do we limit the amount of
sword strokes?

It depends on whether people are for or against them. I will
probably allow potions if it's unclear whether people want it or
not by tomorrow.
Maybe we should make another rule - if the people who battle for
a zone agree not to ban some of the banned items during the
battle, they can use them during that battle.

I could see banning block breaking items, maybe. Banning other
items though? If you want perfectly fair battles just ask
someone outside of the battleground to fight you in iron
everything. :P
Potions are probably the most overpowered items though, hardly
enchanted diamond gear, if you wanted to ban overpowered things.
