It is possible to leech going back and forth between two windows with no bad guys in between shooting the light bulb chain

Agree to ban this technic ?

It's boring to watch this inp :) Note, that cyber change after a huge amount of time and are very fast.

One more time, ranking for any contest must be by stage and not by points.

Yes, but it doesn't prevent us from leeching : you can leech 600pts for half an hour then go for stage

What would be better should be a special scoring with 1000000 bonus for each stage completed

It should be the same for every game.

A. Leeching with very little or no risk of death should be banned.
B. Leeching to be rewarded with extra lives, then getting killed and repeating again should be banned.

That's it, no need for polls.

Finding leeching spots may be very clever and all that but it's not in the spirit of Marp and it makes for very boring replays.

hey guys sorry that i started this whole story :)
i have no doubts that this technigue should and have 2 be banned ;)
but only after the wcc3 and for regular marp
sooner or later someone could find the same method
about leeching and then stages - 4 this game is almost immposible 2 get 2 stage 3 or 4 while do a leeching at stage 1 :(

sorry for this whole situation phil
the pool is useless - banned technique 4 sure :)
and afak the cyborgs dont get mad after long time of playing - only when u hit them
once again - my fault and i m really sorry

Good idea: 1mln points for complete stage.
But what if I leech to 10mln on first stage?
There must be good solution. If not then player1 make 20k on first stage, player2 30k, player3 40k, .......playern 10mln.
Maybe 1 milliard bonus for complete stage?
