While Balls and Baloo go on their 4th honeymoon together in an attempt to rekindle what they call a "flickering" flame, Tom or I will go ahead and update the overall standings for the outside masses interested in such business.

Heh.
I thought MSB said not to update the overalls. Or was that just in a particular thread?

I don't really give a fuck what he said, if you want to know about it. The fact that he was going to cut the session short if no one else kept track is utter malarky to begin with, when all he really had to do was add everyone's active total from Friday and Saturday when he got back. That information is archived and accessible until like December. The session winner announcement would have been delayed a week or so, but what difference does it make when the guy who controls the kitty was gone for the week anyway.
Frankly, it's a convenience for him this week that anyone is keeping track of things. If no one keeps track of anything all week, it might take him a half-hour to update everything when he got back, but it would have been easily doable.
This whole full standings thing isn't even necessary, just merely convenient. Takes a couple of minutes to figure out, but the only discrepancies in totals are with people who have fragments of innings pitched each day. But Balls was probably just cranky. A week with his boytoy Baloo should fix that up.

Why did Balls & Baloo take their romantic getaway now, instead of December, like they usually do? Are they trying to avoid the usual drama about scheduling the Christmas party around their vacation?
Giving Balls all the numbers is not a big deal, since I'd guess that anyone who is paying attention to their team has a little excel spreadsheet of their own, especially when they have any sort of chance at winning a session, because Balls never updates the standings over the weekends anyway (and why is that?)
What bugs me is that threat to end the session early and the trade lock, because Balls took 2 weeks off in the middle of the season and REFUSED to allow the person who volunteered to act as a substitute commissioner.
In any case, I don't think Balls requested that the overall standings not be posted, I think he requested that Tom not edit his overall standings thread so he had an emergency backup starting point, if not one of 12 people could be bothered to send him the numbers...

Because of rumors their romantic getaway may start admitting kids soon, they want to "pack in as much fun" as they can beforehand, and for now they will be going twice a year. The December liason is still on, unless kids are admitted and they need to find a more party place.
As to the no-trade edict, I signed off on it. Sadly, this league has shown they can not handle the trade process without a babysitter.
Also, as to appointing a second commissioner, I agreed it would be too much trouble in his absence as he would have needed to give up his passwords and own access while gone to someone else (including access to his own Yahoo account), as Yahoo does NOT allow multiple people to have commissioner access.
In the long run, I agreed that it was too much a hassle. The only thing barred now is trades. I too agree the ruling on possibly ending the session early was horseshit, and that not only would never happen, I had a few stern words for him for suggesting it in the first place.

What fun is Balls at an all you can drink resort anyway? Sounds like a waste of money and time to me.

Like Baloo gets his money's worth at the open bar? One Long Island Ice Tea gets him tanked for 6 hours...

I think Baloo went for the all you can eat food.

Ah, yes. Tonight, perhaps. I am mulling over possibly putting a new pic of her as my avatar.

Neil, just an FYI, you need to click on the "Full Standings" at the top left of the table on the Yahoo main page. It is very annoying, but without doing that, the standings will be slightly off from partial innings pitched & you can't use the for the session numbers...

Nah... not a rookie mistake. Yahoo changed it this year. The accurate numbers used to be on the main page. As for why close is not good enough, we have had sessions won by less than a point, so you do actually need the accuracy.

Thanks for taking care of the overall standings. It wasn't that I didn't want anyone to update the overall standings while I was gone. It was that I didn't want the real thread messed with in case I needed to refer to it.
Suzy got me the overall standings exactly as I wanted them, and I managed to log in that one day too. So thanks Suzy for that.
As for why we did the trip in May, the answer is simple--the place is so much fun to be at, we're now going TWICE a year. Besides, the rumors are abound that kids may be welcome at some point in the future, and I want to get as many trips there before they ruin the whole thing.
Next trip is December 1-8!!!
