No, I don't think so. > If not, I'm strongly against this because it would imply that you'd > need to intentionally violate the rules (or, at least, cause the > Referee to think you're violating the rules) in order to get a win by > Ribbons. Hm, that's a good point. I was thinking it would be hard to get the ribbon intentionally, because if the Ref thinks you're doing it intentionally, e probably won't make the crime forgivable. (At least, not without an incentive.) But it should be possible for a perfect player who never violates the rules to win. It's too bad, though. Having finally had the opportunity, it occurred to me that it's the kind of of rite of passage that could fit in well with other ribbon colours. -- Falsifian
