It's a shame. I am very interested on knowing about your disagreements. Almost all I said is based on academic studies. The last sentence is a personal belief. Best

The question wasn't well formulated, sorry. I meant, when is the battle considered to be finished? I imagine during the life of an option there can be 1,2,3 or more battles? I hope I made myself clear. Thank you

Darkstar, Do you, in some way, "measure" the strengh of the battle between hunters and option defenders? In the example you presented, the defenders were able to win the battle for 3 days (friday to tuesday). Instead, if they were able to defend ...
