I forgive you for spelling Knigets wrong.
Yes I did know about all those ways that the kill count can be messed with. I did not mention them because I thought people would have to figure the fast way out themselves. However, now that you have told them the easy way im sure many would use it even if I did impose new rules and the honor system. My plan was to allow all of theese shortcuts in the first place, which is exactly what I will do. All that is except the saving of kill counts while restarting Diablo.
Why allow shortcuts? As stated at the end of my first post one of the goals is to get fancy new jewelry. With the chances of finding jewelry as they are, you should find 5 jewels for every 1000 Blood Knigets. But, seeing as the same number if not around 5% more advocates are killed the chances are thus doubled, 10 jewels for 1000 Blood Knigets. The whole purpose of this contest is for people to have fun fighting in a place where they have a good chance of finding a sought after peice of jewelry. Yes it would most likely be faster doing lazarus runs but that gets boring much quicker. I would also like to hear about anything interesting found on theese trips.
The prize is still up for grabs.
Happy Hunting,
