Zizou, Inacio isn’t my property anymore. I believe it’s Blaugrana’s.

You can’t have 4 GMs blocking 12 GMs.

Anyway thing Is settled.

As a correction, a 12-4 vote would be approved, not blocked. And 12-4 is far from the vote split here.

While I appreciate your perspective on majority vs supermajority, it is not really the main obstacle to U21 roster expansion as currently, the vote is 4 in favor and 7 against. Xavi is busy on Spring Break but the last time he voted, his vote was also against, which would give no the majority unless he’s changed his mind. So, IMO unless GMs changed their minds in favor, the topic of U21 roster expansion would die on the vine with less than 50% support.

I agree it’s not the main problem, but I’m really talking about general rules going foward. No rule is going to be changed if a majority of 3/4 is asked.
Again, as I said, the U21 thing is settled. I disagree with some of the arguments, but I don’t feel like engaging in something that is not supported by many.
But the rule change of 3/4 seems completely weird to me. Why should the MAJORITY suffer the decision of the minority? Even a VAST majority.
Seems completely astouding to me.

Anyway, since a whopping 4 are already against it, let’s move on and close this.

I think the main thing for me is it’s hard to have 32 players and bid for future underrated players (by FM) as well as compete for U21 titles.
At this point you almost have to choose. If you want 22 good players who can compete, you only have 10 spots for longer term players.

Also, since this is going to be shut down given your initial post, I’ll reiterate I find shocking the american way (because it’s really american to me) of majority of 3/4. Majority should have always be 50+%. Otherwise when 4 people block 12 people, it’s hardly called a “majority”.
Not meaning to harp on anyone, but I do really feel like this rule should be banned ASAP.

Definition of majority :
the greater part or number; the number larger than half the total (opposed to minority): the majority of the population. a number of voters or votes, jurors, or others in agreement, constituting more than half of the total number.

Given Zooka’s comment, maybe we need to have a different kind of poll, so it’s my mistake.
Maybe have something like :

No change
Minor change (1/2/max 3 spots)
Major change (Academy idea, more than 3 added spots, etc…).

What do you guys think?

[evilo]

OK I’ll try to find an anonymous poll somewhere later.
Or if someone wants to take care of it.

[evilo]

Not moving anyone.

[evilo]

Congrats guys!

[evilo]

Gg LITN thanks Z.
Probably the closest to a title for me. Frustrating.

[evilo]

I know.

[evilo]

Lucky win!
Gg Xavi, thanks Z !

[evilo]

Another trophyless season, but we can still challenge for the GM of the year title !
Come on guys, finish strong !
