The only trouble is, we all know how childish and immature nuts can be, he will probably be on ignore now for rising above the lunacy of the captain

it's irrelevant what I think, I was just telling you what should happen because the way the rule is written. Under the rules, not common sense, this was always valid. Huts tried to use the rules without reading them properly.

All valid questions.

Removal of a player from a clan is only required to activate the automatic right for a clan to make the substitution in a partially played game. Without that it becomes a matter for agreement between clans and in the last 24 hours of a fixture period that agreement can be expressed by any clan member on behalf of either clan.

The overarching rule though has to be the one that completely removes all restrictions on the making of subs in the last 24 hours. That exists to stop any situation whereby any vacant captain or vice captain leads to a game not being played where it otherwise would (or could) have been.

A clan wishing to restrict permission for the making of subs in the last 24 hours can still do so, but it has to be on the understanding that they are the only ones that can enforce that within their clan, not anyone else. If it is not followed for any reason at all then that is an internal matter for them alone.

correct ruling in my opinion as hippes would not have been available so unless hippes had messed up effort wise theres no reason why the captain wouldn't do everything in his power to avoid a default.

clans should focus on completing games rather than thinking of defaults unless a player is inactive or makes no or little effort. thats why i think the leagues need a completion bonus again to give clans the incentive to complete games even if its 5 points (lower than win bonus)

Its a cup game - any completion bonus is irrelevant!!

hardly, I think I made the point, in fact don't think there's many I didn't get across, but this wasn't a case of me leavin coz I was getting beat which I wouldn't do anyway. was a technical problem. the fact that the scoreline was a draw too. I've done the majority of the running n messaging, not much help coming from any1 in clan until harry last night. there was no arguments about this until last night funnily enough, when it could have been agreed to by you huts, but for I'm guessing personal reasons and you getting yourself banned before, you have let yourself down yet again.

In my opinion a match was played and did NOT go to default which is what we're here for......to play pool!!

loved stu's new name for Scorpions reminds me of trying to sort out stuff with elite farce

anyway I gotta go tay work now or can I get a default on that??????
