Information: Rugby's been cancelled, but the Sloped Polo League (SPL) presents a special sloped polo practice session. This practice will center on the proposed changes that are on the SPL April 2025 Voting Ballot. This is your opportunity to experience what the changes could feel like and may help you decide on how you will vote.
Requirements to participate are as follows:
- Your avatar shape should be roughly 1.85m tall. You may need to customize a shape for this and save it. You are welcome to participate if your avatar is shorter than this, but know that you may lack an advantage and this may not help you decide on the 'same height' voting item that is on the ballot. Please ensure you have a saved shape that is 1.85m or shorter before you attend.
- You will be required to have tack on (similar to CPL requirements). But if you are able to, you can communicate as you normally do or use OOC (out of character) talk.
- Kickoff rules will differ based on the type of possession (either opening kickoff, or possession by the team that got scored upon last). More will be explaination on-site. Unless there are crashes or pauses in the match, the "resumption of play from a crash" will not be touched upon, but is also on the ballot.
Please remember this practice is to help players 'experience' what the changes may feel like before voting on whether to accept them or not. It is not a traditional practice. If you don't wish to change your height or adapt to the changes this practice will offer, that's perfectly OK, but you should likely not participate then to avoid any issues. You can, of course, observe if you wish.
