There are far more yes votes, and that's unfortunate, because the unmentioned consideration is of how exposing non-contributing tournament players will affect the Fellowship as a whole. It is reality that United States American's do not like when non-contributors reap the benefits of our efforts. There is a high probability that exposing tournament non-contributors will cause hostility and resentment within the FS. The negative feelings will likely result in members leaving the FS and possibly the game itself.
Genefer, Can you explain to me how members with zero tournament score stay hidden if this proposal was never introduced?
Would I be wrong if I deduced that currently if a members is not listed with a score, then the score is zero?
If this proposal were implemented, and when looking at the report, you would only see the first 5 people with highest score. If you were in a fs where participation is required, then some would look further. I assure you that is done now mostly by manually comparing the roaster against the tournament scores. Nothing is hidden.
For you to state that "There are far more yes votes, and that is unfortunate" is very disturbing to me.
I get it, you are against this proposal. That is fine, and I respect that you have an opinion. You justified your vote because you believe it would cause hostility within the fellowship and people would leave the fellowship. I don't know how you can know that, but you blow me away by then arguing that it would be better to have an attentive AM expel the member with zero scores if participation were required.
Genefer, I believe if the proposal were implemented, more members would participate in tournaments, and the AM's job would be easier.
I respect that you expressed your opinion and voted "NO"
I hope you no longer feel it is unfortunate that I expressed my opinion and that more people voted "YES"
