Subject: Team Of the Year Author: George Osha [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 17:50:17 10/20/05 Thu Members What do you think about having the classic count for points. This would probably increase the number of teams that go and fish especially if we make 1 st worth 75 points. Good Fishing.

If you were ahead at the end of the year and could'nt get off of work or had an emergency that did'nt allow you to go you would be out of the running. One day tournaments are one thing, but a 2 day tournament often several hours away might be a litle harder to make plans for depending on you individual schedule. Just my .02 Jerry

(Eample--- 2 teams fish 2 tournaments each wins 1 and each fails to catch a keeper in 1, how would you determine the better team, they would each get 50 for the win and probably different pt totals for the zero) I feel we should have a set number for no fish(20pts) Tossing Ideas Around.

[> [> Subject: Re: Team Of the Year Author: George Osha [Edit] Date Posted: 14:02:26 10/22/05 Sat I would be all for it after all shouln't team of the year include meetings as well as tournaments (only 5 pts per team as long as 1 team member is present) George Osha

[> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Team Of the Year Author: jerry [Edit] Date Posted: 10:47:00 10/23/05 Sun The only obstacle in that is there is no incentive for a non-tracker boat owner to show up at meetings because they don't have voting rights. So they would'nt get 5 pts for meetings and what if one of those guys have an awesome year and fall short by a few points because they did'nt attend meetings because they could'nt vote on anything anyway. How do figure this one out?

[> [> Subject: Re: Team Of the Year Author: MEMBER [Edit] Date Posted: 04:11:13 10/24/05 Mon JUST BECAUSE THEY DON'T GET TO VOTE, THIS SHOULD NOT BE A REASON TO FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON AND BRING UP A POINT OR TWO, THAT THE OTHERS MAY VOTE ON. BEING A SOCIAL MEMBER DOES NOT STOP YOU FROM SPEAKING, AND SHOWING UP AT THE MEETINGS WOULD GET YOUR TEAM THAT EXTRA 5 POINTS. ONE MORE THIG IS THAT THE CLUB SEEMS TO BE GOING IN THE DIRECTION OF ONLY HAVING HALF THE MEETINGS, THIS, IF PUT ON THE WRIGHT DATES, MAY INCREASE THE ATTENDENCE.

[> [> [> Subject: Re: Team Of the Year Author: jerry [Edit] Date Posted: 12:59:43 10/24/05 Mon I agree but we can't even get "regular" members to show up at these things. I think I am going to request a vote for combining both forms of members to that of one membership group and get rid of this regular- associate member shit, This club has hardly any participation from their members and I am sick and tired of the constant bull shit and the belly aching.Its like I said before this is our club get off of the couch, become one of the doers and not a Monday Morning Quarterback.

Have more non tracker members show up than owners,at one meeting,and you might as well change the name to just bass club >

[> Subject: Re: Team Of the Year Author: Member [Edit] Date Posted: 17:21:35 10/24/05 Mon > Maybe Non-Tracker Owners Are Just In It For The Tourn Money And Don't Really Care About The Meetings Or The Voteing How Many Non Tracker Members Do We Have. What If One Meeting We Come UP With The Proposals And Every Other Month We Came And Voted. Or Put Proposals On Message Board And Voted Or Discussed On The Message Board And Have Special Meetings With Guest At The Mohawk Club

[> [> Subject: Re: Team Of the Year Author: Jerrry [Edit] Date Posted: 18:14:41 10/24/05 Mon I really don't think anyone is in it for the money, with the price of gas, tackle, entry fees and ramp fees, if your lucky you might loose a couple hundred for the year. And as far as the other members message about what if other non tracker members showed up and changed everything about the club My responce to that would be GREAT if they show up and vote to change things its what we deserve for not showing up and maybe it would light a fire under someones ass.
