| Yes, experienced players can make mistakes in the heat of battle, but no true contender would complain it's objectionable to punish rules infractions or to let bad players deal with their own insufficiencies. The best help we can offer to beginners is not to compensate for their lack of skill, but to point it out. They might find it insulting at first, but, as Aleksey Bolshakov wrote above, they will eventually understand the virtues of those wakeup calls. Sure, the situation will improve with time. Meanwhile, we don't have true standard rules, but rules tweaked towards beginners. We don't have all players mastering the rules either. So, if it isn't a true championship yet, but more a large scale meet for beginners to gain experience, I would prefer a lot more to have it called a "rally" or a "rendezvous". More true to its real nature. |
