I'm a casual coach, played the TTG for a good deal of years now, started out with 2nd edition, but didn't understand the rules back then. Started playing again couple of years later, and was hooked.
Looking forward to learning new tactics, and seeing diffrent plays I can bring to the board in my local game league.
Freebooting/hire of stars; I'll do it on the teams where it's stated in the Bio for the given team if I feel like burning cash, dosn't matter if your team is "worth" the freebooter or the star, or not. It can and will happen, don't like playing by all the rules, then don't ask me for a match, simple as that.
Fouling; I generaly don't start a foul fest unless you've pissed me off hard by being cooky or stall, then expect a boot. Should you start fouling then by all means be prepared for a t16 foul or excessive fouling anytime.
PM's; I'll not answer these or take games from a PM normaly, as I rarely see them in time.
IRC; If I don't answer right away, I might be afk, sleeping or just refusing to answer stupid offers.
Being on the gamefinder; Unless your team is on the gamefinder when you offer me a match don't expect an answer, unless you give me a link so I can see your team. Those coaches that tend to lurk and pick games with out even bothering to put out their team or a link will be waiting long for a reply.
