Sometimes shooting up noobs sounds fun but makes it hard for our sport to grow.

Yah make it begginer only. Don't let one rookie play on a begginer team. thats what i think you should do

I dunno
A single rookie provides a bit of expierance to help guide the team, it helps give them a player who can get them to the sign in station, chrono, and help provide brand new players with some idea of whats going on. Otherwise the promoter, or reffs end up doing that.

Cory and I will review how many games we think we can handle in 3 hours, like 5-8pm. That will really determine how many teams we can handle.

Its difficult to make hard rule for this division becuase some of the teams on the event list have been to a small tourneys like HAFB tourney a few weeks ago but it was mostly rental guns and such....

I will keep analysing..

single rookie
I have to agree with Derek here. A single rookie can provide alot of guidance in a teams quest. I think the question is whether or not that same rookie can play the next day. This does open up the possibility of a hired gun. As some rookies are better than others. But this late into the season, almost everyone has atleast one. If you have any doubts about that, look at how many XPSL experienced players are recruited by local teams. Dont get me wrong, I am not complaining about it. But just stating an obvious point.

A single rookie would help teams to be competitive and act more as a team on the field. He, or she, would be the voice of experience. That talked about the mistakes that the team needs to work on. He can also direct them to the various trials and tribulations that can be your first tourney.
