So I'll keep this short and simple, we currently don't have a time limit for inconclusive matches after grace starts for either character. The current rules for inconclusive state the following:
We need to add a time limit after grace starts for either character. For example, if the vote count reaches 7-4 and the final verdict is 9-8, we can add another grace period for inconclusive the time limit will be 72 hours. Another example is this match, in which the final verdict was 10-10 and no new votes we're added since Monday, in this case grace for inconclusive would start and the match can be added.
To avoid matches being spammed as Inconclusive, the current rules with still apply. Grace for inconclusive should only be accepted if both parties had a lengthy debate it can be discussed in the match thread if the debate was notable, so on a case by case basis.
So here's how the new rule would look like:
Note: Admin names are bolded.
Agree: @DarkDragonMedeus, @Mr._Bambu (Agrees with 72 hour grace), @Elizhaa, @Deagonx, @Colonel_Krukov (Agrees with 72 hour grace), @LordGriffin1000 (Agrees with 72 hour grace), @Firestorm808

If both sides have equivalent posts with constructive arguments, the thread shall be deemed inconclusive.
- Inconclusive matches, in which the opposing parties are incapable of defeating each other, should only added to profiles if they had a notable debate. A debate is considered notable, in this context, if it features a lengthy debate over an aspect not directly listed on profile.
