Some information is useful and I never have said any thing differently. That particular bit of information about a player having four fouls just isn't useful though imho.

Of course I'm not saying that...but I have been in games where that horn and "That's five on 42" caught me completely by surprise. I don't like that kind of surprise in my games...can you tell me why knowing/being aware that players have four fouls is a BAD thing??? I don't think you can (other than saying it affects the way someone calls the game, but I've already said it doesn't for me so you can't say that again so nyah-nyah). It's an opinion thing, and you know what they say about opinions!
