DECEMBER NEWSLETTER
Almost Christmas already??? Say what, boy does time fly. I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanza or however you choose to celebrate. May it be a safe and happy one. Happy New Year as well, we wish you all good health, wealth and much happiness in the coming New Year. As always, our tour schedule may be somewhat altered on Christmas and New Years, so our hosts are able to spend time with family and friends. It will return to normal the day after the holiday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DCR DEVILS AND MORE 14 YRS AND STILL GOING STRONG. WHAT AN AMAZING RIDE IT'S BEEN. WE'VE HAD OUR HIGHS AND OUR LOWS BUT THROUGH IT ALL WE MADE IT THROUGH. I RECENTLY CELEBRATED MY 12TH YR AS HA AND I AM STILL AMAZED AS TO HOW MUCH THIS LEAGUE HAS GROWN SINCE I TOOK IT OVER AND THE NEW HEIGHTS, WE WERE ABLE TO ACHIEVE OVER THE YEARS. I CERTAINLY DIDN'T DO IT ALONE; I'VE HAD LOTS AND LOTS OF HELP FROM ADMIN AND HOSTS ALONG THE WAY. I SALUTE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART FOR ALL YOUR HELP AND PUTTING UP WITH ME. I LOVE YOU ALL AND YOU ARE APPRECIATED MORE THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW.

ATTENTION!!!! ATTENTION!!!! ATTENTION!!!!
THERE HAVE BEEN SOME COMPLAINTS ABOUT PLAYERS "GETTING BOOTED" ON THE LAST ROLL OF QTR 4 DURING TEAMS, GIVING THEM A BOOT SCORE OF 750. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING QUITE OFTEN AND IT'S BEING NOTICED BY PLAYERS AS WELL AS HOSTS. THERE IS A PATTERN BEGINNING TO EMERGE AND IT HAS BEEN NOTICED AND REPORTED BY NOT ONLY HOSTS BUT PLAYERS. IF THIS CONTINUES, ACTION WILL NEED TO BE TAKEN.
ATTENTION!!!! ATTENTION!!!
WE NEED MORE HOSTS SO IF YOU HAVE SOME TIME TO SPARE AND WOULD LIKE TO HELP US OUT, PLEASE PUT IN A TDD APP. EXPERIENCE NOT REQUIRED; WE HAVE DAR WHO IS AN AWESOME TRAINER. WE ARE MAINLY LOOKING FOR HELP FROM 11 AM THROUGH 1 PM. WE ARE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH PLAYERS LEAVING THE TABLE TOO SOON FOR HOSTS TO GET SCREEN SHOTS WHEN THEY LOSE CHAT. PLEASE WAIT TILL FOR THE TIMER TO RUN DOWN TO 0 (ZERO) AND THEN REFRESH. IF YOU HAVE TRILLIAN POST IN TRILLIAN LOST CHAT AND THE HOST WILL LET YOU KNOW WHEN IT'S OK TO REFRESH THAT WILL GIVE US AMPLE TIME TO TAKE THE SCREEN SHOT. HOSTS WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR MISSED SCORE OR WIN IF THESE STEPS AREN'T FOLLOWED. WE NEED PLAYERS HELP AS FAR AS LETTING HOSTS HOST THEIR TOURS. ALL THE EXTRA SUGGESTIONS, COMMENTS, ETC. SOMETIMES DEFEAT THE PURPOSE AS WELL MEANT AS THEY ARE.
