rules change & faq update...

For those who have missed out on it, the FAQ is now linkified, making it way more easier to read and navigate. The topic of rulings has also been added to it, explaining why we don't do rulings.

I've also revised the rules in a way that's near to a suggestion made by Weeksy (I think.. my memory is non-existent). They mainly deal with how disconnecting players are treated. We have now a little nicer way of resolving the situations:

3. In cases where one of the players get disconnected and/or disconnects the other player must a) wait 5 minutes for b) the disconnecter to return to the game or server lobby and c) state his/her intention to continue the game. If the disconnecter does all this then the game must be loaded by the non-disconnecter and continued from the most recent save. If the non-disconnector lacks the save game it may be created/loaded by the disconnecter instead. If a player disconnects and fails to return to the game or server lobby within 5 minutes he/she loses the game. If a player disconnects and returns to the game or server lobby within time but doesn't explicitly state that he/she wishes to continue the game he/she loses the game.

The old version of the rule above pretty much declared the disconnected player as the loser unless both players agreed a reload was okey.

I also added a new rule that makes the resolving of un-resolvable situations easier:

11. If both players agree that a situation that isn't covered by the rules arises they can, if they agree on the solution, decide themself how it should be handled. If the players don't agree on how it should be handled then the game is declared a draw and the result is not reported to the ladder. Whenever any of this happens the players must contact the ladder admin with an explanation of what happened.
