How?

Yes, he can join another country to play DC if he wants to play DC and USA does not have any space left.
I didn't get your question though

Re: Suicide Tennis - Suggestions For 2008

Re: Suicide Tennis - Suggestions For 2008
And if the captain of the country (the top 16) does not want to play DC, then the country lose his position as WG direct qualified country and an alternate country will be called.
By final ranking of 2007, there is only one country repeated in the top 16 (= by now, the countries qualifies for DC) that's Germany.

Re: Suicide Tennis - Suggestions For 2008
The season has begun and suggestions weren't confirmed...
I suggested the idea of being able to pick as long as the match hasn't started if you weren't able to pick before play for the day started, but although many people agreed with me it has never been confirmed as a rule anywhere.
Today people have done that at Doha so can it please be confirmed so everyone is sure 
Also will it apply all the time? Or will there be a limit to how often you can do it? (I know there used to be a limit when it was done that way before - I don't care either way)

Re: Suicide Tennis - Suggestions For 2008
It is a wonderful idea and I'm in favor of it but I can't confirm it and use it just because I agree with it. Other board members have to agree with it too.

Re: Suicide Tennis - Suggestions For 2008
if people are allowed to pick after the first match has started we need to post when matches start imho.
I could do this for tournaments in Europe but not Australia.

I wouldn't have thought it would matter so much that it needs to be posted every time a match starts... just periodically checking by anyone to the thread to make sure no one is picking for a match that has started. Just like in PAW.. NO one is able to get away with it there because if someone picks a match that's already started someone always is there to tell them that it's invalid.

Re: Suicide Tennis - Suggestions For 2008
As I said though some people have done it in Doha today so it could be a bit of an issue for the manager there to work out what happens with that since the rule hasn't been confirmed.

Labamba, Sheva and I love psy music sent picks after matches started but they were qualyfing matches, therefore, I considered their picks.
mashamaniac sent picks after first round matches began but, if this new rule was confirmed, i'd have accepted his pick. But as I said, I'm not sure about this rule, even though I think this rule will be confirmed.
For Doha, this rule will not be applied. Discussion may be valid for this to start in Auckland or Australian Open.
