So you actually want it to be like gladiator with the gladiator community rules right?
Cause right now I would say that Glad CW is actually Melee CW (CW without ranged weapons).
I suppose if the majority (a poll perhaps) wants an "actual" Glad CW where you have no flip and rusty only I do not see any problem in changing this, though it is mainly up to Dave & McSic what they really want.
