... Basically pestering her countless times isn't going to help.... If I was a host, I would have said the same thing about the grace period and just resend a challenge... Lets be civil here.
If he did not get the picture with "no" the first six times, then saying "no" again is not exactly going to deter him the seventh nor the eighth time. That single challenger is for one previously challenged and defeated, not making a new challenge. "He is pestering me" is not a valid reason to say no to the challenge, and even with Raifudo's insight, there is still no reason she should have denied accepting the challenge. Perhaps denied him getting priority if someone else challenged again before him, but certainly not denied the challenge outright.
Civil? On the SL Forum? Oh that would be a dream come true!
You clearly don't sleep enough, that dream is more consistent than you would like to believe and/or make believe.
I wrote that rule to say that hosts cannot ignore challenges during the one week break they get after a challenge is concluded by another. That's the only limitation there was. As far as the two week period, you had rights to say no to people during then since you're (IC) busy adjusting to your new life and power. For a long while did we do it like this. That is what we did traditionally, not inherit a list of challengers. I remember the talk of list inheritance and I remember we never set it in stone because it was much too controversial to implement.
Honestly, the whole list inheritance is a bit much to try and make people participate in. People are forgetting that bijuu fight challenges are simply chances to get the bijuu, that's it. If someone else gets it, there goes your chance. You now have to challenge the new person for that chance.
It's like buying a house. Just because you submit an application and someone else's application gets approved first and they get the house, doesn't mean you're next in line for other houses offered around the area (or even that same house). Gotta reapply to each.
I see. Things have certainly changed since it was originally originally composed, particularly among the interpretation. That hasn't been the way I have seen it nor interpreted it for the past few years, but since you've been here longer, your traditional is probably more aged and more to the meaning of the word than my use of traditional.
While I have certainly not interpreted it that way, I suppose I can see it; the previous sentence prior to the mentioning of the 2 week grace period was speaking all of challenges, so the next sentence being in regard to challenges and not the actual fights is pretty feasible. Would be better for it to be explicitly written out though, because leaving things up to interpretation, nowadays I should say, is simply not a good idea. As such though, I would probably advocate my interpretation over the old interpretation, and the matter of inheriting challenge lists being a separate topic/rule.
Since the original question was of whether or not priority needed to be given to Riku's match and I
assume that he means in priority over Deathstrokes, then if it is a matter of inheritance alone, then no, she doesn't have to since inheritance does not exist in the rules themselves. If it's a matter of her wrongfully denying the challenge then I am still of the mind she would have to accept the challenge and consider it over Deathstrokes.
