Excellent, does that mean I'll be able to run there whenever I choose with as many warriors as I choose?

no, you can come and play if you like. Just be sure to run a WHOLE team. Otherwise you'll find yourself in violation of our rules and you may see your team fight by torchlight.

It would be nice if we left politics out of this, no system works right anyway. We all agreed on the rules of the play in this arena. Anyone who doesn't follow these very simple rules will reap the consequences of their acts. I have a funny feeling that we'll have trouble with some hard heads, player commitee be watchful!!! I'll be keeping my eyes peeled too.

Hence you will never see me in one of these committee run arenas.

Actually, according to your rules, only if he goes to the tourney can you have his guys fight the DA. Worst you could do is ban him, which I dunno how enthused RSI is gonna be over kicking folks outa an arena for only runnin 4.
And considering the majority of dm players call in, fax, or maint their turns, and you cant call in or fax a rollup, you are going to see plenty of not whole teams fighting anyways.
I say you'll be at 15 teams or less by turn 26 anyways, earlier if the player council decides to be super anal.

Of course not. Tossing fights, manipulating flaws in the recignition system, and doing all the other fun a-hole stuff that directly impacts other players, thats all allowed. Running only 3-4 cuz you're sick of daing the 3 wit 3 will rollup, skipping turns, and all that stuff that doesnt impact others, well thats just not tolerated.

Then you will be missed my friend because it may work out that the No Tourney Arenas graduates get transferred to a No Tourney ADM Arena!
