Assuming you didn't want to leave valuables in your car, or you didn't have a car, what are you going to do with your luggage once you have checked out on a Sunday morning? For that matter, what happens if you haven't been able to check in before the start of play. If there's to be paranoia about a phone in a jacket pocket or bag, there should be equal paranoia about the potential for players to return to their rooms or consulting device equipped friends or relatives in the public areas of hotels.Peter Sowray wrote: For reasons I explained up-thread, introducing the ACP rule in the 4NCL and other weekend / hotel-based events would have no impact on many (most?) players.
Roger,
If you want to quote me and then state that I’m talking nonsense, please take the trouble to read my posts. It’s common courtesy. I have already explained already why any players who attend the 4NCL with a laptop for preparation are not impacted by the ACP rule.
I am not concerned about players returning to their rooms – this is well covered by existing laws.
I am not concerned about players trying to access devices in public areas – the risks of being caught cheating are too high to make it worthwhile.
