Fixing the Rules: Runners

[Marcel Eðo Pairescu Tafial, UrGP]

As the rules currently stand, Runners may only score via touchdown, i.e. pressing the ball down in the enemy end zone, but are not allow to catch, hold or carry the ball. In effect this makes them kind of useless.

Thus, I propose that Runners be allowed to catch, hold and carry the ball. What do you think?

I don't like that enemy is the term used. If that is as written, I think it should be updated to opponent

No that was just my own shortening of it. The rules as written define a touchdown as "when a quebec, runner, or protector has possession of the football while the football is in contact with the ground at any point in either of the end zones behind the goal line being attacked by his team."

Can't help but think that moving to a separate subforum killed the momentum...

I'll make the rule change tomorrow morning if no one objects.

I've made the change.
