Spirit of the game.

[Nick Phoenix]

Do you play by the "spirit of the game" rule?

 

[Streets]

I prefer using the "Heart of the Cards".

 

[Happablap]

I prefer the Bradley Williams spirit of the game

 

[gdub58]

Shoulder Bump FTW!!

In ultimate and disc golf, yes! It's self officiated and I love that about our heritage.

 

[Dthunderchicken]

I try to paint pretty lines in the sky with my discs.

Can we get a [serious] tag for some of these posts? I would love to be able to have real discussion without the trolls automatically taking over.

If we're talking about enforcing rules and being self officiated, I only make calls if it's obvious that someone is trying to gain an unfair advantage. No reason to penalize someone if they gain no advantage (or sometimes put themselves at a disadvantage) from a rules deviation anyway.

Can you explain what you mean? Spirit of the game is not really a rule. It's a philosophy that should permeate disc sports. Be a good sport, play with integrity, self officiate.

I am not a troll. I just like to interject wit and humor into conversations

Well, really is should permeate throughout all sports, not just disc sport.

 

[Hampstead]

When possible, we opt for the spirit of Ript Revenge.

I'm probably wrong, and should go look before posting, but what fun would that be? I think it comes from Ultimate, it's the notion that you call out violations on yourself in the "spirit of the game." You're supposed to care more about getting it right than winning.
