Proposal 7: If a rider .... the judges may chose to... [ Revision 2 ]
Committee: Flat & StreetSubmitted on 2014-12-18
Status: Passed on January 09, 2015
Background
Improving accuracy of rule on judge's power to keep the competition flowing.
Proposal
Original rule: "If a rider repeatedly riders longer than their allowed time, distracting the audience and other riders ,the judges may choose to eliminate that rider."
Porposed Rule: "If a rider distracts or delays other riders, judges, commentator, or shows anti-sportive conduct, the judges may choose to warn or eliminate that rider. The chief judge may decide to name a battle manager to take care of these decisions. The battle manager may be any of the judges or the time keeper"
Body
To keep our sport positive and awesome, I think we should add these specifications to the current rule to allow better "control" over the competition ground. As we've seen during past Unicon, if a rider simply doesn't go for their last trick for example, we don't have any power to tell him he must go. We have to note here that the rider can of course take their breath before they go, but it is to prevent intentional delaying of the competition or antisportive conduct.
p.s. since now the riders are indidually timed during a battle, the first part of the rule [If a rider repeatedly riders longer than their allowed time] may seem oudated, but the rider can still keep riding after their "time is up" towards the end of a battle.
