Although concessions are part of the LRB, here on FUMBBL we have another rule set that applies to them. BiggieB once wrote a blog about it. It contains a good example of how we look at concessions. Remember it is only a guideline.
Nowadays I see a lot of concessions in Ranked and BlackBox with the main reason to "save the team". This is not allowed according to the FUMBBL rules. Ranked and BlackBox are competitive divisions where winning should be your main goal. If you want to build a nice team, go to League.
I understand that due to its size and activity Ranked has become a more friendly division, and people have the possibility to focus on team building more. But I will punish those that concede to "save their team" and break the FUMBBL rules.
I don't care about excuses like 'my opponent didn't mind' or 'I want to enter the next major' nor situations 'where your apo is gone and your opponent got the ref' or 'when you are 1-0 ahead but it is starting to look bad'.
You accepted a match, you were aware of the possibilities, you play it. You have been warned.

PS For those that will start to search in my match history for concessions, my concessions of the last 2 years:
2008-06-07 2008-05-29 2008-04-07 2008-04-07 2007-06-05
PPS I know a lot of people will come with the argument that they have to play matches they didn't want to, or are forced into games where they have to suffer several injuries before they can quit.
I'll repeat: You accepted a match, you were aware of the possibilities, you play it.
