: Secondly, Let's get rid of the time multipliers. Sute mid-season...y not!!! They take away _a lot_ from the excitement aspect of this game.

You are very, very wrong here. You have no clue what is going on behind the glass, in the alliance stations. It may not be interesting if you are sitting at home, watching it on TV... but if you are in the alliance station, the excitement is incredible. There were some matches that were simply chaotic.

This chaos is mostly attributed to the time multiplier, in my opinion. As far as hindering the strategy, it enhances it. 59 second matches are far different than 1:29 matches, that's for sure.

I'll post more on this later, when I find some time.

For now, I'll just say that my eyes were opened ALOT from seeing what happended behind the glass, and before the match. While everyone is talking about bridge details, you should be talking about how things are handled before the match happens... most mistakes are made then, and then they develop into reality on the playing field.
