Food for thought.
I would agree with ingus on this, With the new regen clothing the duels will take forever. During the ZION vs EPN combat trails the duels were 7 minutes max and the person who had the most health at that time won the duel. You could go with that format or set your own limit like 10 minutes. Heck I remember my 20-30 minute hacker duels with tripity last year and those were without the regen pants . Sure they were fun but, but in the interests of keeping a reasonable schedule it might be better for everyone to set a limit. Plus it would add a new level of strategy for players. If you can't finish your oponent, can you at least outlast him?

Well, all the points really contradict each other. Why should we outlaw one item of clothing when, as SkyBruin said, duels can take that kind of length anyway? IMO, having faught many duels with the new sleepwalker pants and finished off my opponents in fairly decent time (nothing to the scale of 30minutes) the jeans are fine. I've battled previously without the jeans and had some battles last 20minutes. Again, outlawing the pants would actually take away from the level of strategy in these duels in terms of outlasting them. IMO, outlawing them really has very little point.

Sorry for the confusion there, I was really just in favor of a set time limit for duels incase they go the distance. I like the regen pants, as I am sure many other do. but they do increase the likelyhoood of extended duels. I thought I would mention what was done at the ZIOn vs EPN tourney since several of the matches came down to the 7 minute limit to decide the winner.

I would signup but my schedule pretty much prevents me from joining depending on the time of day these start.
I'm a night walker and about to start my months on end with no sun.

I see the point with the SW pants I really do, maybe the competitors can decide not to wear them against each other if they so choose, just a thought. Lets chew on this a bit. Hmm better get some Red Bulls... FYI filling up real fast all, dont wait.
