I have kept with the mantra of not giving an 888 to anyone in league unless if it's a total, "Screw it, I quit" situation.
So what would you do when you have a nice college guy, the week before SECO who looses his go to disc in a round and does not finish so he can look for it.
Players statement was "I lost my go to driver. Im going to be swamped all week until the collegiate SECO tournament this weekend so I wouldn't have time to look. Finding that disc was more important to me than finishing. I wasn't even doing bad, probably would have cashed, but I didn't want to go to seco without my favorite driver. It sucks but taking one bad league round is less important than not being able to throw the shot I want to several times at the collegiate tournament this weekend"
Do you 888 a round like this in league play?
In a tournament, I would think you would have no choice but to play on...I know league is supposed to be the same but at the same time it is Tough cause every other TD would 888 a round like that. Trying to grow our league not chase folks away.
What do you think?
Also player stated, "And that article states that a player should be given an 888 if "the player intentionally attempted to have a round dropped to protect their rating by not completing the round..." as I said before, I was not throwing bad, I am certain that I was growing better than my rating. So with that being said I dont think that is a justification to place an 888 in any case if I was throwing better than I normally should"
