Reminds me of a story. High school debate competition colocated with high school wrestling meet one weekend. School's cafeteria is open, and the line is mixed with students from both competitions.

Wrestler: "Where's the salt at?"
Debater: "You're not supposed to end a sentence with a preposition."
Wrestler: "Okay, where's the salt at, a$$hole."

You mean I could have skipped 9 whole pages of crap and came straight to the punch line ? Seems like that could almost be the # 1 rule of forum officiating

I only wish that was the number one rule. It isn't. Hopefully Mark Padgett won't read the post. In any case, please don't ask him about the number one rule. Consider yourself warned.

You realize that all the refs who don't know the #1 rule could suffer greatly.

I know of one boxer that seems to not mind this rule as much.
