   Spoiler 
  He edited his post to say 5 foot step to K18 instead of k20 while I was creating my post causing me to fly to the wrong place. Is he allowed to change his movement?
   
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: candycorn: @Gronk: 
   Spoiler 
  On altar question:  Yes, passing over the altar causes the doom trigger.
   
  
  
  @Brumph: 
   Spoiler 
  On high ground: Yes, attacking from a higher position due to flight qualifies you for a high ground bonus on melee attacks.
   
  
  
  On post edits (for both players):  Here is general etiquette for post edits:
  
  1) We discourage post edits.  If necessary to clarify something, post follow up posts.  This can create situations where a player's turn takes 2 or 3 posts.  That is fine.  For example, you want to know the result of an attack before you move.  Post the attack, with: "Turn not done" at the end.  Create a follow up post, based on the results of the attack.
  
  2)  Changes to a turn, once posted, are not allowed .  According to ybot, such a change happened on jvluso's turn, post 13.  Is this correct (alteration from [5 foot step to K20] to [5 foot step to K18]) ?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: jvluso: That is correct.
