I don't really think its about maintaining the rating as much as it is just giving a guy a salute.When two credible pool members,ranked members get it on and fill out the spot,so be it.We're not talking permanent here.In hindsight and respectfully,I have no problem with Lopez,Vanes,Lattimore waiting a bit and it came off as just a bit rushed Imo.He was a champion,and he was killed.Hopefully we don't need exceptions like this again.Rules are rules...you are correct and 100% right but we have made exceptions on maintaining ranks before.Izzy?
