Good evening everyone!
Most of you are probably aware that hosting XHBs requires you to pay a bunch of boons and you will only get these boons back if your battle gets a certain amount of entries. (3 for OHB, 7 for 2HB, 11 for 4HB)
A lot of you also know that theres a common practice to submit so called "boonsave" entries to help the host and save them their boons. A boonsave entry is a thing someone made within a few seconds after the battle deadline already exceeded, only to save the host from a boonloss when noone else is submitting.
This was never a good practice and you probably know that the boonback-threshold is there for a reason. It makes sure that the host is aware of the risk to host a stupid battle idea in a stupid format at a stupid time. Or in other words: If the battles you host dont gain enough interest, you will be punished by maybe losing your ability to host more of them. There needs to be a way to make sure that people are actually interested in ongoing battles.
We (as in: the admins) noticed a mariopaint battle yesterday, that had 2 boonsave entries, both submitted by the same person (one by using Public Toilet), and we agreed that submitting boonsave entries is indeed a scrub-worthy way of exploiting the dynamics of the page and its system.
Since this was probably not clear enough until now, we won't act over the things that happend yesterday. We will just give a warning to not do it again! From now on, if we (admins) notice an obvious "boonsave" entry in a battle, we will give a 2 week scrub ailment for this.
