There will of course be times when someone does a T16 foul out spite, frustration, nastiness, etc.
Maybe they are frustrated with the dice. Maybe something that you said or did during the game has upset them. Maybe they just had a terrible day/week/month/year/life and this game was yet one more thing to go wrong.
If you do feel tempted to T16 foul for one of those reasons, be aware that may cause your "wicked" opponent to laugh even more.
In a big, open environment like [C]ompetitive division opponents could be playing for widely differing reasons.
With probably, widely differing states of mind.
I think that it is a case of finding the balance between "being kind to each other" and "playing the way that we want to play"
Edit: If you opt to play the Secret Stunty Cup you will be expected to foul brutally and often!
I suppose that there should be a prize for whichever team fouls most in a game. At least. |

But koadah, done right - fouling is it's OWN reward. |

[quote=In league environment:
you'll want not only to win the single game - you'll want to win league / finals / playoffs. Therefore every removal hurts the opponent - and lowers their chances to reach this goal at themself. Every removal is an advantage to you.

This is not necessarily true. Once you have beaten an opponent, he is likely to end up behind you in the league. However, he can still help you by beating other opponents, thus increasing your chance of ending up first in the league. But when you destroy your opponent's team, he will most likely lose against your other opponents from the league too, thus increasing the chance that another opponent will end up before you. So, by killing your opponent's team, you may well be shooting a bullet in your own foot. |

depends on the scoring system, and how well you fare against other opponents.
as always, a good start is a lot of job done. |

As a coach that has fouled 9742 times in 2188 games.... I would like to say Fouling is not a choice.... its a lifestyle! If you are playing stunty... you MUST foul on t8/16 before scoring! |
