eh... i thought trading was legal. i don't think it's assistance, cause it's a trade. you pay gold for it or lose resources to gain gold. assistance is accepting free supplies, or defending armies. but if everybody else isn't trading i will stop doing it. also: there's not much sense in having a marketplace when you can only use it for resource gathering

I am not taking part so perhaps my views on this do not count, but I would see trading as a bit of a cheat, simply because it would mean the big players could have loaded their cities with gold before exodusing and then just buy everything they need.

However, alternately to that I would expect that some of the big players will have loaded their cities with gold to maintain a large army whilst their city was recovering from the exodus, so there is no way of making this kind of contest perfectly even.

If I learned one thing in this, its how to dodge incoming armies like a beast lol 
Also Id like to say, this has really helped my PvP, as I was a little rusty, and had forgot a few things
So far the swamp lord and the Crow murderer are as far as I can tell in the lead. 
Congrats also to Binky, for reasons I cant announce here Wink

Does that mean that I'm allowed to place buy orders on the market?

Nah, it means I am unable to make a good deal in the market.  The single person acting honorably in this competition will not accept it.

I think it is pretty obvious once kurdruk announced buying from the market the legitimacy of this contest failed.  

This is a learning experience though.  I will most likely look toward joining in the next contest when the rules are twice as clear and lack of honor can be more regulated.

I think placing overrated orders and let allies accept them would be cheating. Otherwise it's ok I think.
