A couple of queries have revealed that the rules could be tightened up.
1.

Yes, a capture is enough. You do not need to hold for one round. Just get your army through the gates!
That is the rule. It is not a change, but rather a clarification.
2. The second one would represent a change.

Otherwise, the player who is dropped on Presov is exempt from being able to win that particular point. That's a bit of a double wammy since that tert that is the immediate target of everyone in the game. Of course, you would still have to post in the chat that you won the Presov capture point.
As I mentioned in my pm, none of this is remotely a complaint or criticism and is merely a suggestion for you to use however you see fit. Nothing about the present situation is unfair, as we all knew the rules entering this tourney.
I tend to agree. Therefore, I'm willing to make this rule change, if there seems to be a general consensus in favour, starting with the second batch of 3 maps. I'll send a PM to all players, and if a general consensus emerges (not perfect agreeement, but a lot more in favour than against) we will implement that change. To be clear, it will imply that starting with the fourth game, "
if you own Prešov from the drop and no one takes it from you by the time it gets down to 2 players then you get the 'capture' point."
