Re: NJ Elim Yellow Card Oddity

This has been around for awhile. During 2005 at the Philadelphia Regional our alliance partner received a red card during the finals. As a result our entire alliance was DQed and our alliance was given a loss instead of penalty points. The rules for the Playoffs have always applied alliance wide vs. Team wide. I must I saw shocked when it happened to us 3 years ago, and I was pretty pissed.

Sadly I don't have sympathy when the entire alliance got carded, at least they got to keep playing. I think its a silly rule, but its been around for awhile..
