If a League Tables participant fails to respond to personal communications directed to them by a fellow player in their division, that player will be issued a yellow card.

The personal communication must be made at least 3 times on 3 different days, using different communication methods, if possible. If a player fails to respond to 3 attempts at communication from another player, the player who attempted to communicate should report the communication failure in the [http://www.wgt.agls.org.uk/forums/viewforum.php?f=6 Three Strikes and Down] forum, opening a separate thread for each communication failure.

If, within 24 hours from such a forum post issuing a yellow card, there is still no reaction from the player who failed to respond to the 3 communication attempts, that match shall be declared a technical loss for the player who failed to communicate. (Anyone can even subscribe via email to the [http://www.wgt.agls.org.uk/forums/viewforum.php?f=6 Three Strikes and Down] forum, to ensure they won't miss any yellow card issued against them.)

It's OK to say '''Sorry, I'm too busy for the next 2 weeks; let's play our League Tables game in the second half of the month, please'''. It's not OK to fail to respond at all when fellow players from your division ask you whether you are available or not.

Any player who still has Yellow Cards for a '''''No-Post''''' or a '''''Communication failure''''' by the end of the month, subject to dialog in the [http://www.wgt.agls.org.uk/forums/viewforum.php?f=6 Three Strikes and Down] forum, will see these games posted as Technical Losses or Technical Ties for those players who caused the non-completion of a match.

If any player by the end of the month has more than 2 Technical Losses or more than 2 Technical Ties that player will automatically be disqualified from the League Tables for the following month, and may only re-enter the competition the month after that, in the lowest division.
