Just a reminder, when you agree with someone to play a DCL match, you are agreeing to the following:

- you will actually show up to play

- it will actually be YOU, and not someone else, using your pilot name (save your pranks for "fun games", not DCL matches)

- you will make a reasonable effort to win the match, or at least to score well (obviously you will sometimes not succeed, but that's different from not trying.) It's OK to get frustrated and struggle for a few minutes, or to take risks that don't work out, but please don't waste your opponent's time with a "match" you both know is a farce.

- you will make a reasonable effort to actually complete the match in a reasonable amount of time. Taking a two-minute-long Warlord timeout is fine; actually ordering pizza and walking away from the game for 45 minutes is not.

If something comes up that interferes with your ability to play a match reasonably, come to an agreement with your opponent to reschedule, suspend, or replay a match.

The game needs a shot clock.

I think coding it is going a bit too far. People just need to be reasonable. This ladder requires you to do your best....throwing a game and suiciding to negative scores is not reflective of that and can affect skill ratings. It isn't an honorable way to fight and it is a waste of everyone's time and it just flies in the face of what this ladder stands for.

The rule is...don't be a douche. That doesn't need to be coded.
