ive just finished my first tournament match and have a couple of questions...

1. to set the delay to 117ms, what happens then in comparison to auto? my match had 63ms ping and it was not lagging, but it was delaying, very irritating.
2. the PREVIEW thing, should it be on or off, because i NEVER play with it... ???

2.- we kinda have a legal vacuum there, I'd say both are allowed if both of you agree to play on a certain preview.

if you want to play with no preview, and your opponent wants all+danger, I'd say you should play with all+danger. Else a midterm would be rally+service.

You always can lower your own preview (in your Character Sheet) ; there's no rule about that... But then, you might feel disadvantaged against pep who keep it to All+Danger .

only because it's the most used here, and you can't force your opponent to play in a lower preview, you'd get an unfair advantage if he's not used to it.
