I'd suggest that if you haven't heard fromt them by now (or over 24 hrs or some amount of time in the future) that you just put them on autopilot until they return and have them choose a sensible course of action. I think it'll keep your dynasty moving along more smoothly and when they return, they probably won't object to your providing some guidance in their absence. I would still wait for those who continue to get back to you in a decent amount of time though.

Wasn't Eckberg supposed to start at 6'7" as well?

I concur re: noshows. Do a basic/conservative gameplan with them.

Palmer will go both 6'8" and 6'9". If he gets both jumps in 4 jumps or less he will try 6'10. If not he will be done.

OK the majority of participants would prefer I starting moving on with the players who haven't been as active. Therefore, if I haven't received input from Kappe or Soldier by tomorrow I will continue jumping there players every inch until the have 7 jumps, 3 misses, or have maxed out.
I'll give Mighty the opportunity to get his instruction in, because he's been good about keeping in touch. I have now finished the event with: Pflaggstettler Yellope Palmer Mello Babson Ivanov Eckberg Gunner Cat |

EVENT 4 - HIGH JUMP - Status Update
Gonzalez is now finished with this event. Since I'm going to finish up the event for Soldier and Kappe tomorrow if they don't contact me (and I don't expect they will), if Lesgettham, Mighty and Elli can be prepared to go as well, we'll finish the event before the weekend. Then I'll see if I have time to get the 400 in as well (since it required no interaction on your part). I do have several meetings tomorrow so no promises, but we'll see. |

I was personally kind of hoping to use some strategy in my jumps, but if the other two decide to do all their jumps, I will too.

Vex, You can. I'm not asking you to do it through PM, just to be available to annouce your decisions. With most people finished, the rest of the event will move quickly as long as you and Mighty are available. (note:Lesgettham sent me some pretty detailed instructions through PM last night). |

We are on 6' 11" and I'm only waiting on Mighty, who I think is going to try and complete the event through PM later this morning. I already know Nights is jumping at 6' 11". Jeff if you can get with me and let me know your intentions moving forward, I can complete the entire event and we can move on to the 400 Meters. Last edited by Breeze : 08-30-2005 at 08:23 AM. |

EVENT 4 - HIGH JUMP - Review
9 of the 16 competitors in this event ended with a height of 6' 11" or 6' 10". However, not all 6' 11"s or 6' 10"s are created equal. 6' 10" for Elli was a good jump, 6' 10" for Eckberg isn't, and to add insult to....um....injury - he got injuried in the process.6' 11" for Babson and Mighty was good, while 6' 11" for Nights was a poor result - as he really had several opportunities to clear 7' on his card. Regardless of the people mentioned above in a negative light - Ivanov probably suffered the most in this event. As noted on the Preview - Ivanov isn't a strong high jumpter, but the only height he cleared was his opening height. A couple of quick notes on roll information. Gunner who won the event could have easily added another couple inches to his height. In his 7 rolls he hit the 7' 4" column 3 times and had he gone on the 8th roll would have hit it again. Had Nights attempted 7' rather than 7' 2" he would have cleared, but that was the best he was going to do. Had Kappe attempted an 8th jump he would have injured himself. Just some tidbits of information I thought you might like. Last edited by Breeze : 09-01-2005 at 10:46 AM. |

A LOOK AT THE LEADERBOARD
When you're in first place going into an event and you finish first in that event, obviously you stay in first. However, Lesgettham and Pflaggstettler did a nice job staying with Gunner. With most of the competitors in this event finishing tightly bunched there wasn't much change in the standings. The only major ones appear to be Gonzalez and Ivanov who basically switched places on the board. The other thing that is becoming obvious are Cat and Palmers' positions. They are even starting to fall off the pace of the 14th place competitor. Last edited by Breeze : 09-01-2005 at 11:00 AM. |
