Balls. I should have checked this thread before applying with a Light Side team. Can I apply with a dark as well as I'm thinking my 1840 Norse probably won't make the cut? |

If you apply to both, both teams get kicked. So if you want to switch you need a tourney admin to kick the one you don't want. |

Sooo with the recent changes announced, most of the WO will be played without PO and without the Wizard, but a few games will be coming in before the changes go live. What's the official policy on this? Should coaches still use these features in the WO for as long as the site lets them, or not? |

This sucks, without wizard some teams really have no chance to even get draw. |

Well my Woodies would certainly love not to be POMBed so there is a strong incentive to meta game and try to delay the game until the change is live, which is why I kind of think it would be fair to make it a general rule for the tourney, on the other hand it will be difficult to assure that all coaches are aware of it, would probably need to send a PM to everyone... |

Well, as the changes roll out I think that is just the way to deal with it. Forcing coaches to not use PO because at some point in the future it will be disabled, well, is just to much. The UI drew the bad stick and is the major that the changes will be coming down on, piece by piece and in a haphazard manner.
All the teams will just have to deal with it. |

Well the wizard is gone right now, he will be back in BB2016 expansion pack #2 or #3.
Until that happens, well, you will have to use Dirty Tricks then to get that unexpected turnover event.
Once the inducement system switches over to the BB2016 rule set you can buy 1-4 Dirty tricks and not give equal value in return. |
