Do I sense a little bitterness Chet? Has such a scenario befallen you in the past?
Me? Heck, no. When it comes to battering, I
am the ram. Doesn't matter what race I'm playing, either
Marcus - It sounds as if we're discussing apples and oranges. You seem to imply that you could simply get enough skills on SPPs to negate the "injury = skill loss" equation. I'm talking strictly about a scenario in which coaches are given a set number of skills per round, as per Resurrection.
Under such a scenario, I don't consider the injury rule fair at all. Tournament coachs in such a format are supposed to play their opponents on equal terms. "Equal terms," to me, encompasses two features in such a tournament:
1. Rookie teams (100TR)
2. An equal number of gained skills per coach per round played
Anything that disrupts this isn't fair. It might be funny, it might be random, but it breaks the basic "all things being equal" law of the tourney. I mean, what's the point of equal teams that reset every round if you're not resetting equally? You may as well play with the full league rules for SPPs, winnings, etc.
My two cents.
