Re: Poll-Play Animations While Refs are Scoring?
I agree that Qualification rounds are a good time to preview animations. However, I find it intersesting that "interesting scoring situation" was brought up. Perhaps if you define that it would change some votes.

For example, what qualifies as an interesting scoring situation? This varies from person to person, from ref to ref. Some refs may prefer focus while they decide, others have no problem with animation blaring in the background.

I would like to point out that I really enjoyed (nervously) the moments in GLR when the refs were deciding certain calls, and the camera was zooming in on the questionable situation. In my opinion, that really improved "average joe" consumption of the game.

I guess I'm divided.
