An endangered species sends two opposition players to the casualty ward

It may seem a lost cause, but it's not too late. If we band together and act now, maybe, just maybe, we can rescue a smidgen of the carnage that's about to be exterminated from the greatest league on fumbbl.

Piling On has been hit hard, but it's not dead yet. The BB2016 nerf means it's a much less desirable creature than it once was. But less desirable is no sound reason for extinction. SWL is a league which celebrates diversity. Let us save the beautiful beast that is Piling On.

All you need to do to join this righteous endeavour is sign the petition. Save the SWLPOMB!

A Norse coach, a Lizard coach, and a Pro Elf coach as signatories? Is this some sort of joke with a bad punchline?

I'm in! I admire the effort.

Note that open league rules currently prevent any player from choosing Piling On as a new skill, only players who already have it may use it with a team RR.

So I'll vote for it if you add a rider, Right Stuff cancels Tackle on blocks. Save the POMB and the poor stunties in that canoe at the same time. No one likes seeing this happen. I still have all those perms. Or this, that's not good, even without POMB.

tussock - they just want an official optional rule used, not some fanboy rule.

I don't care either way. PO is a waste of TV if you need to use a TRR.

I'd be ok with it being grandfathered (if Christer doesn't make an option avialable to change it to Juggernaut for league teams).

Are you talking about a SWL specific ruleset or the standard league division ruleset?

If SWL is n the standard ruleset then changes affect other leagues as well.

Though IMO PO should still be available as it is an optional rule in the rulebook and league commissioners have other additional options for dealing with it.

Currently in SWL there are two options.
- The nerfed PO. (as we have this season)
- A ban on the use of PO entirely (as is decreed for next season)

anything else involves Christer

Would the ban be enforced through the site/client or gentlemans's agreement? I can't see how you would do it via site/client right now.
