Re: New members: Introduce yourself in this thread
Thank you Michael, I think a wiser and more calmer head on my shoulders than last time. Here for the long haul.

I'm sure you'll enjoy yourself this time around.
The addition of Slack, in particular, has really upped the non-simday engagement level.

I reckon I was Yuma GM between say 06-12 I'm thinking 08 09 more than likely.

Re: New members: Introduce yourself in this thread
For some reason, Neil, your previous history has been lost. The StatsLab records show me as GM of Yuma from 2007 (when the league began) to the present, but I didn't come aboard until 2010. So I'm guessing you were GM from 2007-2010. Does that sound right?Bears wrote: ↑Fri Apr 10, 2020 2:31 pmI reckon I was Yuma GM between say 06-12 I'm thinking 08 09 more than likely.
If so we'll have to get someone to correct the historical record.

It would have been between that time but not all that time, real time I was only in about 4 maybe 5 months.Bulldozers wrote: ↑Fri Apr 10, 2020 3:02 pmFor some reason, Neil, your previous history has been lost.

Re: New members: Introduce yourself in this thread
That's because we didn't create new accounts in OOTP for new GM's back then. You inherited the old Yuma account and OOTP only knows about you. I don't think that's fixable anymore, but you're not alone in that, either.Bulldozers wrote: ↑Fri Apr 10, 2020 3:02 pmThe StatsLab records show me as GM of Yuma from 2007 (when the league began) to the present, but I didn't come aboard until 2010.

Re: New members: Introduce yourself in this thread
I hope so, different person now than I was. I think the retiring and small holding helped that, also think if the me now had taken over Yuma or the Shinkansen back then I'd have still been the GM.
