What are the rules proccedures for disconects?
How are we suppose to handel these when the computer boots the game and both players are disconnected. Can some one provide some direction? It happened to me and paulie last night in the 4th quarter right after he fumbled we were tied. We replayed the game. Let us know.

when urlocal was in the league, we disconnected, too. i was up and was torqued. we just replayed. i think it's happened the same way for quite a few games. as far as an official ruling...idk. there doesn't seem any other way to me other than replaying.

In my mind it is entirely up to the players what they want to do. Anything that both combatants agree to do is fine with me. My *advice* would be to try your best to "recreate" what happened before the disconnect (in terms of player's yardage, score, etc etc) and then play out the rest of the game like normal, but often that is impossible to make accurate. Feel free to use your discretion in these kinds of situations and if the two players cannot agree, an admin can step in and mediate.

I know it's a pain in the ass. But in both ETL and LTFL I have the 2 owners play whatever is left over and send me both nsm's. It's a bit time consuming for the commish to do the stats manually but if you're looking for accuracy this is one of the best options.
