Where can I quiery defaults as.....

11-4 - against one player who never logged in and made no effort to contact me during the whole 2 weeks and whos team ignored the calls to sub in, is frankly a joke! (Notice they subbed in the other fixture and ignored mine)

11 - 4 - against a player who once again stated he had gone away, made no effort what so ever to reply to message, whose team once again ignored there was an issue with! And then who left someone else in charge and finally in the last 2 days of the fixture GOT BANNED!!!! is even more of a joke than the first case!

I think that for the default system to work it has to be more open to the teams! Because at the minute I cannot see how these to players deserve 4 between them let alone 4 each!

Quoted from the rules:

"Any questions or grievances should be directed to pot_the_lot in offline messages. No complaints or grievances posted on the FunkyPool forums will be addressed."

And remember to include which games you are talking about


Also feel free to review rule 8 (from 8.5 onward), which elaborates how defaults are determined. http://dave.cordery.org.uk/clanleague/rules.php#rule8

Also please be aware that we have now a panel of 5 people giving their individual opinions, according to the guidelines above. Based on those inputs, Steph makes the call, usually a simple average of the opinions of the panel (also the case in your games).

If anything is still unclear for you about how defaults are determined, feel free to ask in PM to pot_the_lot


Also, let me make this clear for everyone:

There are always two sides to a story, and most people only seem to care about their own perspective. The default panel has to see both sides, which almost always paints a less black and white picture than the one you like to believe.

In fact, this is a very good example of just that: Your opponent got banned on the last day of the fixture, not with 2 days remaining - making that factor a lot less than you apparently would like to believe. Also keep in mind that the default panel knows a LOT more about the activity level of each player than you do.

Yes however too players who have deliberately stated in different areas that they will not be around and... have made less than no effort to get in touch! Yet still get 8 points between them!

Again, PM Steph, not here on forum.

Please refrain from posting remarks that need me to reply to then!

Obviously we would have a great lead in the league so we were done one, use their ways emma and message potty and if it aint sorted just quit.

I posted no remark that needed any response from you, nor did you in fact write anything in that last post that is a response to anything I posted.

How about just complying for once? At the very least, you have a lot better chance of having your case heard that way - insisting on doing things against the rules certainly will never buy you any points.

Yup she will do it but how about defaults done properly so they dont have to be argued as we had other games like this and they got 15-0 so why she never is very wierd.

The data for those games are not the same. Simple as that.

Players always seem to believe they know the entire story - when in fact they nearly always don't.

In short, a game ending up 15-0 has different data than a game ending 11-4. No rocket science there.

Come on guys.

This thread is for clan news ONLY.

As the rules states please contact pot_the_lot about any questions or grievances about anything regarding the clan league.

Clan Cup

Due to receiving cup lists extra early, we have decided to start the cup 1 week early.

Round 1 will start today (Time TBA)


* Teams who are not in round 1 have byes into the quarter finals, and do NOT play untill the quarter finals start.

Set 2 deadline has passed and unplayed/incomplete games are now going through the default process.

Can the clan captains who are involved in these unplayed/incomplete games please send the appropriate info to pot_the_lot by Monday night.

Failure to do this will result in desicions made by log-ins ONLY.

Thanks
