Richard:

There are rules and there is what is right. If the tournament director can arbitrarily (probably not spelled correctly) change this rule, then the tournament director should be able to change it back to what is right. You don't change the rules in the middle of the game in my opinion. In looking over the timing of the decision, the lack of reporting of it in the minutes, and the late announcement of it to membership, I believe the implementation should have been delayed one year.

Anyway I am tired of posting on it on this topic right now. I have made an appeal to Mike Juby. He is forwarding my appeal to have the Saturday weigh-in reinstated this year to the Kids Executive Council. I do not intend to address this subject again in this topic at least until I hear of their decision on my appeal. I need to stop looking at this topic now because it just is truly upsetting me too much. If anyone wants to discuss this further with me at this point, send me a private e-mail.
