Soz, if it was discussed earlier, cba to browse.

Over the past few years, Gumball has become increasingly difficult to manage from an organisation stand point. By segregating the Gumballers and non-Gumballers we immediately avoid most of the common problems which usually require admin intervention. Sadly it comes down to the behaviour of our community members and the pile of admin work we usually end up with when we combine regular players with players who are competing in Gumball.

This is the first year we've tried this and it may well be the last, we just have to see how well it works. At the moment it seems to be going alright, sure there aren't many chases but it doesn't seem to be affecting the enjoyment that Gumballers are experiencing.

The survey at the end of the event will surely give us our answer on that one. If anyone else wants to express their opinion, please feel free. We'd like to know.
