Thoughts and Ethics - Ball Reviews Scratch Doubles
« on: August 12, 2007, 07:35:13 AM »
The league is taking shape again this year. I'd like to share a few observations and thoughts for the participants, as well as the observers.

1. This is a volunteer effort by me. I do the best I can with the limited time I have. Preparing the standings every week takes me about 2 hours - and since we've had our own business, those two hours are very precious to me. Please post your scores in a timely manner, and don't make me chase you down. I can't do it this year.

2. What's with the cheating? This little league is JUST FOR FUN, to help with a sense of community on the site. There's no money involved - but there is an honor system. If you can't be honest, please don't bother. I've posted some of my best nights, and some of the most horrid in memory. You can too.

3. If you don't want to participate, please let me and your partner know. It's called common courtesy. That gives us a chance to replace you with someone who wants to be part of things, and is the fair and right thing to do.

This will be my first year for this, so I hope I can contribute. It's a shame that you have to make a statement on honesty, but that is the way it is now.   Thanks mumzie for all the hard work you do.

We are all bowling in different houses and conditions. It's a given that each of us will have some good nights and some bad ones.  Anything else would be a little suspicious, and for what?  

Let's do what we can to make it easier for mumzie.  This is my first year and I'm looking forward to the fun.  Thanks mumzie!

Looks like you won't have to worry about posting scores unless someone else drops out...  The "league" is full.

I think the point was that you pick a night to post scores from and that's the night you post them from.  A lot of people bowl 1 night a week.  If you miss your night of bowling, fine, post from another night.  But don't wait until the end of the week and post the best 3 game set you had from Friday because your usual night you picked you scored badly.

Also, don't pick your best 3 games of the week.

As Mumzie said, it's for fun...no money....have fun and make it fun for all.
