It's not you, it's me... we're just not compatible

Dear Elvis,
Why isn't Winbolo backwards-compatible?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say "because events are handled differently." From networking to gameplay, things are different. Here's an example:

In 1.10, I believe, you could no longer kill an LGM by dropping a mine where an LGM was to build. In earlier versions, you could. So imagine if one player was using 1.10 and another was using 1.08. Would the LGM die or not?

I know! I LOVED fucking up other pplz LGM's with mines, ELVIS, BRING THIS FEATURE BACK!

hmm, that sounds interesting... although it would change current gameplay quite a bit...
