I always thought that if you promised a player a certain amount of playing time, but he missed it because he kept fouling out, that this could cause him to not have his promise met and lead to issues. However, I presented the following question to HD and here was their answer:

MY QUESTION: If I make a promise of 20 minutes to a player, and he fouls out of a number of games, do those games count towards the promise? In other words, do only games where he does not foul out count?

CS ANSWER:

Hi,

If a player fouls out, the game won't count against you. However, it will be counted if the player met his promise for the game.

Thanks for playing on WhatIfSports.

That's epic!!! I'm not 100% sure that that is true, however... I'm not buying it.

i posted this a month or so ago on the thread about promises.

however, apparently admin (probably seble) went and fixed the bit where you could get shafted from like, a 2OT game where you go 25m and foul out, and end up thinking you were good on promises when you weren't. as in, in the old days, if a guy fouled out, it didn't count period. i guess now it only doesn't count if it goes against you, so that's new (to me)

the part where fouling out games didn't count was established as hard fact like 10 years ago, i can't speak to what happened since then (not beyond what chap posted anyway)

So if a player fouls out, you're telling me that game does not count against him????? Mind blown!! I've never heard of this before.
