    Great job removing some timeouts. Remove all of them.
    Slows down the game from a spectators’ perspective

    I’m very much against changing the rules for the sole purpose of making the game more viewable, especially if this is at the expense of the well-being of players. Most wfdf ultimate games are not broadcasted in any way.

    Although I agree that changing rules for *just* for spectators is a bit silly, I think the game is too stop-starty as it is, and removing timeouts would create more flow in games, which is always good for the sport. I don’t think you can say that removing them is at the expense of the players well-being- it’s a sport, you’re suppose to run – and I don’t think having a stoppage because players are a little tired, especially mid-point, is good – imo, if it’s good for flow, it’s good for the sport.

    -1, I’d rather see a change to allow substitutes during time-outs to make time-outs more valuable. I sincerely do not believe that time-outs are stopping the flow of the game, there are many other reasons (like out-of-bounds pulls or marking infractions) causing break-of-flow, I’d rather address those.
