About Rule Wars

Rule Wars is a team tool for deciding which of Microsoft's official C# analyzer rules to enable, and at what severity. Create a group, invite your teammates with a link, and vote together. Vote Yes on a rule to enable it and choose a severity, or No to leave it off (mapped to none). Your group's votes are aggregated into a consensus .editorconfig.

Severity levels

• error — Violations are reported as build errors and fail the build.
• warning — Violations are reported as build warnings.
• suggestion — Shown as a subtle hint / suggestion in the IDE.
• none — The rule is disabled and never reported.

Groups & fairness

Each group is private: votes, results, and the generated .editorconfig are scoped to the group. You join by entering your name behind an invite link, and your ballot is one per browser per group. The person who creates a group sets an admin password, which lets them rename the group, clear its votes, and reclaim admin access. This is a best-effort team signal, not a hardened election — clearing cookies resets your membership.
