Deep Throw It advances

No rule against boosting in this one, afaik. You're probably thinking of Halo's.


First page, last post -- stwcjj said no team with more than half players boosted is allowed through the duration of the tournament.

I've pm'd getgidwani with this information first, but here's the explanation. When I originally planned the tournament out the intent was to only have a team boosted with 50% of it's players at any point of the tournament, however, the rules on the rules page only indicate that teams with greater than 50% boosted rosters will not be receiving an invitation, plus no penalty listed if a team does go past the 50% boosting rule. This is the first time this has ever been an issue, and I will modify the rules before next years tournament to make things clearer. Because of the rule ambiguity, Mississippi will advance based on the result of the score.

So is that only for ENTRANCE into the tournament...or will they teams get DQ'd if they boost in the middle of the tourney?

This is for the duration. If we get down to the nitty gritty and all the remaining teams agree to allow boosting then it's all good.




Where exactly is the ambiguity? We know we'll be getting annihilated by boosted teams come playoff time - was hoping this tourney would be a welcome change of pace.

Regardless, I'm sure its quite a bit of work to run a tournament, so thanks for putting the time in. And Mississippi, lets pencil in an early-season scrimmage for next season - we might even put a coherent game plan together this time around Good luck going forward.

Didn't mean to upset anyone here... my boosting had nothing to do with this tournament as it was always my intentions to boost at this point in the season and I didn't see anything in the rules preventing boosting otherwise I never would have joined. My primary focus is always league play and that's what this was geared towards based on the experience gains or lack thereof from waiting to boost at this point. To agentmayhem, I'd love to schedule a rematch with you just for the sake of it early next season or after Day 30 (assuming your team is boosting for the playoffs). Like someone else mentioned, I was under assumption the only "don't boost" tourney was Halos (hence why MMD didn't submit an entrance to that).

This is why the Gamecocks don't sign up for Halos, but we boosted last season during this tourney and nobody complained.

This really makes no sense to me since no quality team will be over 50% boosted at the beginning of the season when invites go out.

Yup sucks... My team lost today by 4 to a half boosted CrackerTown... I would imagine without the boosting we would have won
