Voting on if we should abolish the double point system for the position rounds (2 more) for the rest of the season. The position rounds are the last week of each session and some teams can just up in the standing a lot with only one good week. It's not fair for teams that bowled well for 8 weeks and had one bad week. It actually tripled the points. I vote to abolish it. What does everyone else want?
Oh yeah. Post week 11 here too.

Do we post scores for next week (Thanksgiving week)? I know of a few leagues that are not bowling due to the holiday.
Never mind I just saw in the rules where we don't post Thanksgiving week.

Strange week this week. The lane machine broke down (he assures us that it will be fixed tomorrow) so no oil. I still had 30 clean, but NO carry (after the first game). I must admit that, because I was in the pocket, albeit (evidently) with the wrong angle, I didn't make the right moves. I couldn't make myself try the moves that MIGHT have worked (or might not). Hence my low scores. Sorry, partner, but I'm happy for the 30 clean, though!
Scores:- 228, 198, 198 = 624
On edit:- Sorry, I forgot to vote. I vote to abolish the double points.

Screw the double points. The top two could, theoretically, slug it out to a draw and one of the teams below them could leapfrog them if they draw a favorable matchup. Too much weight to be placed on one week and helps to illegitimize the first eight or nine weeks of the third.

Isn't shaking things up the point of the position round? Why change? There are a lot of ways in which match play isn't fair, it doesn't always reward the best bowlers. Lots of teams win points simply because they drew a team that bowled badly while good scores lose to other good scores. How is that fair?

188, 244, 258 for a 690. Used Storm Spitfire.
Another decent set demolished by lack of carry and the fact that I can't put three good games together.
Meanwhile, we had 2 800s, 1 300, 1 299, 2 298s, 1 297, 2 290s, 2 triplicates (216 and 195), and an abundance of 700-750 scores. Good night for most. Great night for some.
EDIT: It does not really matter to me. I vote if it does change, though, to wait until next season.
