That ranking hauss on fumbbl is just ridiculous. Why not scrap ranking altogether? Or more realistically, why not move to the top in the "create a team" menu and add the sentence "unranked is the division you should use for practice games", since it seems so important to follow this rule?
It might not seem so big a change, but you'd be surprised how much a bit of human-computer interaction optimisation can do =) (one famous example was reconstructing the interface of ATM machines so they returned the card before spitting out the money, drastically cutting the number of cards left in the machines)...
I'm absolutely not patronising you Valen, I just think a lot of newbies on fumbbl create their first teams in [r] and go on to play games that end up in this way, leading to unneccessary investigations by the admins.

I completley agree Odium, alot of newbies probably do just start with a ranked team as it is the first list on there.
