Round Twelve Thread - First Split Round!

[Pkbaldy]

If we don't name a team, I thought the convention was the previous week's team is named (or fill remaining spots)...

If you hadn’t named a team at all that would be the case - but since a partial/incomplete team was posted it just undergoes the usual procedure as if you had named five guys who weren’t playing as opposed to five blank spots - filled by EMG and then first players alphabetically

All good - I would have won comfortably if last week players were named so I don't appreciate the comments regarding 'bad form'...

In future, could we please ensure all rules are both clearly stipulated and voted upon before each season (rather than ad hoc unilateral changes) because I never remember voting on banning captain loopholes (if anything, it's a display of skill from a coach)...

"There is to be NO DELIBERATE NAMING OF PLAYERS NOT PLAYING TO ABUSE CAPTAINCY OR EMERGENCY EFFECTS FOR PARTIAL LOCKOUTS."

Pretty sure Jukes has had this included in nearly every weekly post for a couple of years. More of a gentleman's agreement.

I'm aware it's been there - I don't have time to challenge these things in detail so I haven't bothered until now. All I want to know is why an abitrary rule change has occurred... The practice has always been any proposed rule change is subject to a vote.
