Hi folks,
This came up in another thread for one of the 2011 Dueling Championship round 1 games, and I'm repeating this post from the Dueling Forum since no one there knew the answer. OK, that's probably not true. More accurately, no one posted an answer.
Here's the question:
When identifying the five (non-HW) scoring planets, is there any judgment or decision making process involved in identifying these planets? Or are they simply the planets most proximate to the four corners and the centermost planet (proximate to x=1400, y=1400)? A simple application of the Pythagorean Theorem would solve that problem, except in the rare instance of a tie.
Or does the host (or whomever is setting up the universe) take into account starting positions to determine a more equitable center planet, for instance, that may not be the true center-most planet in the galaxy?
Cheers,
Void
