Did counting players change?

Has counting players for murder been changed?

I have been griefed MANY times by players that will recall and then kill themselves to give me a count.

The other day I again had this happen. This time entire guild gated in and flagged on my EV and then not only dropped me but then killed and ressurected each other turning me instantly red.

I laughed so hard because I haven't played in a while and had forgotten about this.

I worked myself back blue and decided now it was time to let the griefers taste their own medicine.

EVERY time I get attacked and damaged now I have been doing this...and it was working very well I might add.

Only now this morning I found that after attempting this several times with multiple characters I have not been able to successfully count anyone in this manner. Anyone else notice this?

I was under the impression that if you recalled away, you could no longer count the person attacking you. However, if you cast explode on them as they recalled away, the spell would hit on the other side and then they could suicide themselves and count you.

Perhaps I don't have it right, though. I typically am not cheap enough to count someone if I am running away peeing down my leg, though, so who knows if i'm missing something in this aspect of l337 gaming.

Im curious who the guild that gated in to EV/flag/suicide/grief you was?

Perhaps this is the case. I will retest this without the recalling part as the guild that did this had one character gate them out and maybee this is why it worked.

The guild was AB. (an order guild)

EDIT : retested and you were correct as long as "you don't recall" you can still count them.

AB Made Me Red Too. I'm Innocent!

That is a really lame way to give someone counts. If your not brave enough to stand and fight like a man (or woman!) then you shouldn't give counts. SMH

I had worse happen to me. -3- got me almost perma red after I meteor swarmed a house they were all in(similar to operation red hemperor).

Made a new char but haven't had to use him yet cause -3- got banned before they could give me the last count after I went blue again to make me perma red forever. Phew lol.
