no, penalise the refs if they don't show up for the team meeting. THey're there to do a job, and if they don't have a good reason for being there, and they make no effort to rectify the situation, then they diserve to get penalised.

One bad ref crew can totally wreck the tournament.


Actually Steve, while we're talking about reffing;

when a player shoots hot over the chrono, after 10 seconds has been called, is that player not Imeadiatly elliminated? Because Scutty told me that they should be in Amsterdam, but the Ultimate Ref on the National Field in Toulouse said they wern't.

Also, a player who's gun can't be chronographed, (won't fire for some reason like the battery is dead) should that player be allowed on the field after 10 seconds? With his gun?

I'm definitely with you on that one. We will take away points for failure to show at the referees' meetings from now on.

A player with a hot gun should be eliminated. If it is hot enough a teammate should also be eliminated. Perhaps a mistake was made.

At first I thought the player should carry on with his gun but not be able to shoot with it if it did get fixed. But now I wonder if it wouldn't be best just to take the malfunctioning gun and let the player play without a gun. Reason, that player might be a distraction to judges who have to make sure the gun doesn't start firing again. Make sense+
