Title: Scratch Doubles signups for 06-07
Post by: mumzie on August 21, 2006, 01:35:37 AM
Ok. Here it is. The post everyone's been waiting for. Please READ CAREFULLY before you sign up!

1. This year, I'm charging everyone a $2 fee - this is total for the whole year. I'd like to allow everyone in - but I can't do the secretarial work manually. It takes about 3 hours a week, and I don't have that kind of time. I'll be using your $2 for the purchase of a league secretary software package. When you sign up, please put "I agree to the $2 annual fee" in your post. Thanks.

2. Don't sign up unless you will post your scores EVERY WEEK without fail. With my new business, I am way too busy to chase after everyone. If you see your partner not posting, chase them down!!!

3. If you don't bowl, let me know ASAP - the 160 unexcused blind score is brutal, and totally unfair to your partner.

4. Team signups are welcome. If you don't have a partner, sign up anyway - I'll pair you up with someone, using a completely random method. When you sign up, I need to know the night of the week you bowl. If you bowl more than one night, pick one to use for this league.

5. We'll start the week AFTER Labor Day. Weeks run Sunday thru Saturday. This year, I'm going to need everyone's post by the Monday IMMEDIATELY following the Saturday of the week.

6. If I get more than 28 teams, we may split into divisions - with more than 28, with the breaks we need for the holidays, and with some leagues finishing a lot earlier than others, everyone can't bowl everyone else. I'll figure out something.

7. This is scratch. No handicap. No prize fund. Just for bragging rights. No real glory outside ballreviews. But it's a lot of fun.

Rules from last year can be found at www.bowlersresourcecenter.com/scratchdoubles/rules.htm

I wantonly looked in on this past year, regretting not signing up when I should have.  The $2 fee is fine with me.

This year, count me in!!!

mumzie, bass has graciously allowed me to be his teammate on this year's winning Scratch Doubles squad.  After a two month bout with health issues last season, we were untouchable.  Expect more of the same thing from us for an entire year.  BTW, I'm all good with the $2.  I've got some Enron corporate sponsorship that will fit the bill for the season.  I told them $2 per person or $5 for a two man team.  They said to expect my Abraham Lincoln anyday.

Scott33,
 Bowling at T+O with above ground ball returns and playing 4th arrow is definitely not China.
I'll take my 225-230 average there anytime.
Now if I bowled at Shoreview or the Lanes I'd be 235+.
The Rec would be 215+.

If it doesn't have DT or RG stamped on it.

Noon, tomorrow and probably 6:45 on Thursday night.

Tomorrow I'm trying a completely different philosophy.  No looks at the pins until after the ball is to the head pin.  This year, it's a premium on accuracy, whether it's required or not.

Good question. In the past 2 years of doing this, we haven't had a problem. There's no money - just for fun and bragging rights. If anyone were to cheat in this league, I feel really, really sorry for them.

But if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."
