I have a suggestion......Instead of just giving the members a option on length of matches to avoid runners why not let that stand for them in any room they are in  BUT have each room be a end limit room .......

room 1    2 ends .......
room 2    4 ends     .........

etc......

Star players will still have an option to choose there length in any room they wish but this will stop this getting hammer and running garbage.....

? another question why not have a lag for hammer also so skill get the option not a computer choosing it, I have had 12 matches in a row without hammer first and got nailed but several runners.......Tony
