@TSNHelp this is what I'm getting when trying to sign in.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@thederbyapex No matter how much effort you put into what you do, there will always be people that think otherwise.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

The announcing at this weekend's games were incredible. Thanks for making it fun to watch and listen to. #talk2wftda

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

Thank you Montreal for not breaking my heart. @MTLROLLERDERBY

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

It's not Moreal. It's Montreal. #talk2wftda

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@screamqueen084 But Montreal shouldn't have been in that situation. They played the last 15 minutes of that game in "not to lose" mode.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

The one time I'm glad I didn't see during this @WFTDA playoff is running backwards on jam starts. I wasn't able to watch all the games but it didn't happen in the ones I saw. What a lame rule.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@thederbyapex But you're right. All cheers are dumb. Some just say there name three times over and others just have one word with a number in it for some reason.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@thederbyapex What do the two of you mean exactly?

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@BiffMixalot @thederbyapex With the way we under preformed, trust me, we would like a redo as well.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@thederbyapex The East range is about the same range a bunch of the East teams in the Cup had in their regular season. I haven't looked at all the points outputs but I imagine that the West range is so high because Canberra should have been a mid to high rank D1 team.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@polerin @KhaosTheoryDerb @skewblogs @acirella @screamqueen084 @thederbyapex There would still be a penalty for knocking, out of bounds and severely of balance.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@KhaosTheoryDerb @polerin @skewblogs @thederbyapex That's cool. The WFTDA should look at trial runs for all rules changes going forward. There are many opinions on how the rules should be changed but no one can know the outcome until they are put through the the motions.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@polerin @KhaosTheoryDerb @skewblogs @acirella @screamqueen084 @thederbyapex You would still get the forearm call for knocking anyone down, out of bounds or severally off balance.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@polerin @KhaosTheoryDerb @skewblogs @acirella @screamqueen084 @thederbyapex Players would adjust. Jammers would get less penalties, players would get less penalties, it would reduce the score, it could also make the scores closer.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@KhaosTheoryDerb @acirella @screamqueen084 @polerin @skewblogs @thederbyapex Yes

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@KhaosTheoryDerb @acirella @screamqueen084 @polerin @skewblogs @thederbyapex If you played the game before the big rules changes then you've already played like this. Relative position forearms used to be minors. You had to commit them 4 times before it was upgraded.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@KhaosTheoryDerb @acirella @screamqueen084 @polerin @skewblogs @thederbyapex Mainly removing the relative position part of the forearm would correct most of the issues I see.

[ProfessorWrex @wrex_professor]

@KhaosTheoryDerb @skewblogs @acirella @screamqueen084 @polerin @thederbyapex Not really sure why playing this game has anything to do with it. I've played most sports at a competitive level. I've played this one a few times in a scrimmage.
