Is it possible? Am I so dumb that I do not understand a single

of a English language posting ? Can it be ?

I hope I can just keep silent on this and still play.
Thanks.

Of course you can. But you an also ask about things that are not clear.
Here I'm trying to explain some basic things: if you're interested, ask for
more!

The actual rule is (something like):
score of a scout = average score of his players

I.e. if A has picked ten players that so far have scored 10 points each,
and B has picked one player scoring 11 points, A has 10 points and B has 11
points: B is ahead.

A problem we've spotted in such a rule is that, once you've picked some
good players, you've little incentive to pick other players. E.g. C has
picked Pele in 1957: the best strategy for him is to not pick players
anymore. So the best way to play is in this case not to play... Now, this
can be good for a Taoist, but "normal" people prefer a game where playing =
playing = in this case, picking good players.

All the proposals in the OP (and in the "official" e-mail you've received)
are aimed to fix this problem, either switching from average to a different
method or forcing scouts to pick at least 2 player every year.

I hope you'll ask for details.

I actually dont understand the language of the OP. What you explained
here is fine. For example,



What does the above mean?

Because of Thanksgiving in the US, I, and I suspect possibly others, may
not be checking in on RSS for a couple days. So, I'll likely miss the
announcement of this week's options. So my choice this week is whoever
is playing my opponent's choice. (I think I'm against Mark V, so once he
makes his pick, just put me down for whoever his team is playing.)

Thanks.
