I see the use in that too. However, I could see some major issues.

Imagine person A wants a med. Person A only decides to join 1 hour before games start.
If the active who is hosting isn't online due to life or any other reason, what happens then? is person A fucked?

Also, considering whoever runs the game can decide who they let in, they may just not let people in who would rather have a med.
It may be perfectly safe, but again I can see issues coming.


I would say the person who wants a med , sends their fg to a med, while the rest can just send it to the host.

so allow the fg to be held by either the active game runner or a pre-designated med for the game

could also work, as long as there are no issues regarding to timing of fg sent/picks or anything that might be crossed with 2 people holding fg

and thus being unsure if user sent to one person or the other

but to what med? if one person has the issue, ok 1 med isn't bad.

but if 6 people have issues with the active holding it, do they just send to 6 random meds?

as i said, i can see the use, and the idea is good.

but as dd said, we need to find a way to make it work and work consistently

also, blind pots would not work for this lol

see you can improve this place if you decided to listen to and consider ideas that those who are 'inferior' propose.

I'd say, if they are hosting the event, they should be required to be online in the moments before the event would officially start

And if the host rejects someone who wants to use a med, this would be a red flag towards a possible welch. This likely wont happen though, as I've noticed the integrity of a hockey active is particularly high.

I think this would be a good idea to help actives make a name for themselves. And, if someone likes the idea of the particular event being hosted, but doesnt trust the active with their fg, just propose a mediator.

The active, if truly trustworthy, would have no problems with using a mediator. I think it's a no-lose situation, as you either simply use a mediator, or let people make a name for themselves.

The basis of the decision to implement this rule is honestly on the grounds of how serious the active tag is taken. I feel like it does mean quite a bit in the hockey subforum. So I think they should be given the opportunity to prove themselves once they achieve the status. And, as mentioned, its up to those participating to deem the active user worthy of holding the fg. If not deemed worthy, a med is used, and all is well.
