    If this league cannot see its way clear to have more tourneys, how can they leave the drop time at 3 days? Checking daily results, you clearly see almost everyone being purged or being dropped for inactivity. This leaves those us who enjoy backgammon and competitive games to conclude that this Cases ladder are happy to play 10-20 matches daily with basically just the few Tourney Directors playing. Someone please tell me what is wrong with this picture. This diamond member thinks the person/persons in charge of this league is indifferent to player wishes or is it just a person thing for this player? It was changed to remove me from the number one spot in the first place. This I know, two of the Tourney Directors told me, one being a head TD. Be really nice to get some response to this, rather than it is being taken under consideration. Hear that several times already, can read that below.

      Who ever told you this garbage is obviously trying to start drama in the ladder. Yeah, sure there was a big consiracy to get you out of number one of the ladder because no one had better things to do with their time. They woke up that day and said to themeselves.. "Gee I think I'm going to change the rules to knock cothkitten down.. You want number 1 soo bad.. get it back...sheeesh

        Rebel, Eagle told me himself that this was why drop time was changed. also another TD who shall remain nameless. He was your head tourney director. However the issue here is the fact that it is an unfair rule. Look at your daily results. I have never seen so many purged from a ladder or derung for inactivity as here. You are one who said you would help change rule. I like competive play, but it does no good to climb, just to be dropped again on the next 3 days I work. It is clear to me, this league is indifferent to its member wishes and content to just have their TD's play. Even if a couple of people join, they just end up being purged for inactivity. There are hardly any tourneys, they never get off ground, ever wonder why? Forget me, but at least consider other members. Gee if ladder is not any more important to the people who are running it than this, why not step down? A job worth doing is worth doing well.........

          There's your problem.. listening to Eagle..but anyway.. lets say we do change the rule for story telling purposes.. you and who ever else gets up to the top 10 and then go idle 6 days. .then the people.. the same people you trying to fight this rule for cant get to the top because you are not active. I have no quarrels with you couth, but back then when the rule was changed and you were going idle 5 and 6 days at a time you were found playing in other ladders and those ladders tourney calendars showed you in their tourney's.. then of coarse your defense is you have a right .to play in other places which means you have a right to put this ladders number 1 spot on hold til the maximum time if you want right?? sound pretty fair.. not to me.. But anyway.. I'm tired and exhausted so if you get the rule changed then amen to you and good luck with it
