Re: IRI Rule Changes

Just gotta say based on all of the ideas shown here by people who've seen and played the game I give props to the GDC for being able to come up with a game from scratch year after year with never fully seeing the game played.

I would agree with the rule of sending out of bounds balls to return to 1st HP if not past the truss. It made no sense to me that you would get the ball advanced for missing.

Also G11 should be called if the ball doesn't hit the truss, pole, or HP. Shooting the ball way over the head of the HP only to have a field person quickly hand the ball (or sometimes a different ball) to the HP anyway made no incentive for teams to actually be accurate with their truss shot.
