Ethics of Telling a Team "No"

[FrankJ]

I take the opposite view. It is a great game for rookies/less experienced teams. It is a great opportunity for the teams at the top of their game to use their GP and mentor the less experienced teams. Unlike some previous games you can drive & play defense with little risk of fouls. So coaching a willing team can be effective.

The playing only for a team's self interest to the detriment of the alliance is not just a rookie issue. You can't tell those teams no because they will not listen to you anyway.
