S19 NSFL Rule Summit Results

[Mavfatha]

Yet again, those few GM's refuse to give up their control over the awards. They want to ensure that they can vote for their own players at the end of the season. There's no reason to vote no on an awards committee, other than not wanting to lose the power over who wins the awards every season. I can't wait for another wasted awards ceremony with completely random votes for IA and unworthy players, just because they were the best player on their team in the respective position. Or even worse than that, just not even voting at all. If they won't establish an awards committee, why isn't their a rule in place to ensure, through user and team fines and punishments, that voters actually vote and put legitimate thought into their ballots? Voting for the awards is a privilege, not a right, and it should be treated as such with penalties for those that don't take it seriously. For those GM's and HO members that voted yes for the awards ceremony, thank you. You know what the right thing to do is, and, as a player, I would be proud to be on the same team that you possibly GM or play for in the future.

Not going to try and dissect all of this, but there already are penalties in place for HO members or GM's not voting at all. Directly from the rulebook "Each team that does not have any required voting done by the deadline will be fined $2,500,000 in cap space. Every HO member will be fined to their bank account for the same lack of voting."
