[quote]I should also point out that we reserve the right to remove any game submitted from the metaverse for any reason we choose. If we feel cheese is being used to win top spots, we'll remove those games. If someone doesn't like our rules, they can go set up their own ladder and cheese themselves.[/quote] Their house... their rules. I don't have any problems with this concept.
