Maybe I will, and it will be quite satisfying to see the weenies all cry when I lay the Iron Fist of Justice down on their petty infractions!! When you show weakness in conflict, you lose the power to enforce.

 

Don't like the disqualification, eh? How's a -1 demerit for "crying about your punishment like a baby" suit ya? makepoint.gif

Agreed. As I said earlier, it's not the penalty that bothers me,

 

Well, you are assuming the grade is a 9.0 and there will even be a penalty.

 

So you are saying that we should be penalized regardless... especially since we didn't know that a grade hadn't been submitted?

 

Like those folks in round 2 that were warned for being late and knew they'd get disqualified for not providing a grade?

 

Unlike OldGuy and Zipper, I'm not about to let this drop.

 

While I agree that the rules have been too fluid, I also don't like being the one who has the honor of catching the enforcement crackdown (since that is usually where I end up being... getting kind of tired of it, don't ya know....)

 

Thanks,

Fan4Fan

 

Well it's not quite like the joke about the guy who was accused of beastial necrophilia . . . "Sorry Judge, I didn't know the cat was dead, when I was f***ing it...

(but close!) 27_laughing.gif

 

As I said, I just don't like being where the buck stops.... especially when it isn't a buck... sorry.gif

Actually, believe it or not, I'd prefer superstrict enforcement. thumbsup2.gif

 

The rest of this just distracts from the whole thing...

And you be sure to get your Mommy to pin a reminder on your coat, so that you don't forget to send in the grade next time. thumbsup2.gif

So what are you planning on whining about next?

 

Actually, I believe I'm right in this case, and I'm sure the majority of the board agrees.

 

If someone breaks the rules, they're out that round. No whining, no person_without_enough_empathying, no pizzing, you're gone. Too bad, so sad.

 

Put that to a vote, and you might be surprised at the verdict.

 

I agree with JC! based on my experiences with Fantasy Football the games start and the starting line up has to be in or go with your last start in this case that being there last guess so if you want to grade the next book and its your same grade no need to PM you want the same grade so it carrys over!
