so I'm going to add an ER/EP/ED check on each entry
with a 100 point penalty for incorrect ER/EP/ED
(mainly to vindicate the 100 I just lost for the bluff:)
That's fine for me, just a suggestion: In case the ER/EP/ED is incorrect, then the puzzle is penalized and will not be added to the list of puzzles submitted, so the original poster can post it again with the right ER/EP/ED.
It happened to me in the previous game that I incorrectly posted the ER/EP/ED of a puzzle and when I tried to repost it again, then gremlin penalized me for posting a duped puzzle and then there was no trumping. Or ignore my suggestion and then the penalty will be harsher than 100 points, as the poster would not be able to repost it again. What do you think?
