Defaults - Maybe we ought to invoke a maximum response time for defaults. For instance, if you haven't heard from your opponent in 72 hours, then your opponent defaults their game. I say this, because many times real life interferes with game play. Occasionally, you never hear from the opponent again. This has happened to me several times just in the last couple of months. I'd hate to see someone get left behind just because their opponent didn't pay their phone/internet bill. ;) And in these situations, it may be a LONG time before you hear from them again. Double Elimination - Everybody has a bad day now and then. Even M4 Jess :D Maybe we could start a second ladder for those that lose their first game. Right away, we have a whole second series of contests. Whoever rises to the out of the 'Loser' group, gets a shot at the top dog of the original tourney. That's a lot more work (I'm not volunteering) but it could become a real exciting contest and offer every participant more than one chance to prove his stuff. :cool: (Besides, I don't wanna see Scharfschutze left behind after I stomp him :D )
