Up for vote to help Ref decisions in the TEAMS campaign,...
Has my ideal of manditory open battles, to encourage all players to fly been shot down. Since teams are fair and there will be no start BPV point shifts, there should be an evening of the skill field as well. By having open battles there is a leveling effect on the sides as battle-teams are made up of more than one player.
The ideal of a roster for teams, was proposed by me. The ideal that each member of the team would fly like in a baseball batting order. If you cannot make a game you stay at the top of the roster until you fly. Once you fly you move to the bottom. You know in advance as you move up, your due to fly for your team upcoming. Then as you move the bottom you have a break. This helps in planning with the significant other, as to when your dedicated to an hour of fun on Sunday night for the team.
The Race Leaders would decide the batting order.
Other rules to follow to pin down any loose ends should a vote AND ref accept this ideal.
This also encourages the ref to be able to fly to!
PS
Worst case, a pin down rule states that if we have the players, the battle is open. I am not suggesting that we delay battle if 6 folks cannot be there. Open battles could be 4 players.
My point is not to turn away a player who can fly for his team provided another on the other team is there to even it out.
So if 5 players show up it is maniditory a 4 player battle. Picks based on most eligible in the roster.
Our group is dwindling for practice games and postings on the message boards. If change does not spark life into the game, it will go the way of other retired admirals.
Shake loose your old ideals and breath life into the game.
