This unwritten rule we speak of sounds a bit like collusion Bottom line is Poile let weber enter into to Rfa status because he was obviously not offering what Weber felt like was a fair deal. He rolled the dice hoping the rest of the Gms would enter into to what amounts to collusion and it blew up on him. Gms crying unfair? It should be the players fussing about the Gms colluding with each other in an effort to gain an unfair advantage when it comes to contract negotiations.
