Is this a pattern? Or is it just a single example of being rude not to ask to settle this close?

Don't see why not (although the 20 square rule might not be necessary). If you got the guts to put both your communicatin' and fightin' skills to the test, go for it. Heck, build a whole alliance dedicated to claiming rare spots if you want.

well I think those are player specific lesson learned. Who knows, maybe other players wouldn't have behaved like Vermino and would have been dear friends with Tigre. About setting terms prior to a duel though I think there is little room for opinions. |
Of course, I didn't mean to undermine your point. But I think it's far from the only lesson people should take from this mess.

From what I gather, none. Which is the only real lesson that should be learned from the story but that everyone is ignoring. |
You forgot: 1. Don't settle within 10 squares of someone without asking. 2. Don't keep your mouth shut if someone settles within 10 squares without asking. 3. Don't agree to a futile 1v1 battle in order to "save" your alliance when the whole point of an alliance is to BE YOUR ALLIES. 4. Don't agree to a settlement of 50 million gold, then change your mind and demand more after you realize you were totally played.

yea, i accept the challenge, lose and suddenly i need help. yea right. if i would find me in a situation that would require the attention of this forum i would had done so long before accepting some kind of challenge. and if i had accepted the challenge, i would had made sure i would win it. cause if i agree on something i give my word on that. and would accept defeat and probably exodus the hell out of there.

if one part had more army than the other, but still the weak part agreed on the duel to wash his "honor" clean, and lost, he has no right to come here and cry!

So if you make a mistake and are in need of help you're no longer entitled the right to ask for help?
