Something wrong with fightlist refresh? (in General)

I know that the refresh time was recently set at 30 seconds, but I was able to fight the same character 7 times in a row in one minute. He didn't even fight between my battles with him, so how is this possible?

Okay so I can't get this to work, so it is my portrait if you wanna check it out. /me goes to get a xanga page :p

When someone is actively fighting they heal, so you can attack them after each individual battle.

You don't need to actually fight to get your own "hey, I'm available to be fought" flag reset; all you need to do is TRY to fight. (Even though that doesn't heal you.)

So, a possibility here is that MasterLancer was attempting to fight comatose opponents, which reset his flag between each attempt.

I've seen this happen and have been on the receiving end of it.

That would make sense Moe, as I sometimes do that while waiting for the refresh myself. After fighting almost 100 battles while sitting right there, I went and checked it out. That makes perfect sense though.

This seems to get asked a lot lately. Added to Fighting FAQ; thanks Moe.
