In Response To: USBGF Rules (Bill Riles)

The Board of Directors will periodically review these Tournament Rules, and welcomes feedback from its members and tournament directors based on your experience with these Rules at future events.

Will the Board of Directors accept feedback from a tournament director who has read these new rules carefully before using these rules at future events?

If so, although I think these are pretty good rules and I appreciate the effort put into creating them, I have jotted down approximately 18 questions or comments based on a careful reading of the rules. None of my questions or comments have anything to do with permitting dice to land on checkers.

I would prefer to bring them up as individual posts, either within this thread or in a separate thread for each. If you ask me to write them all up in a single document or post, it will probably be a few weeks before I get around to it.
