I will try and make myself clear 1 more time...

I have to get up and train every day at 4 AM for 3 hours to play a game that lasts 80 minutes. I say this because I understand if we don't take the field at the appointed MINUTE, that game time is forfeit time. Car trouble doesn't count, family doesn't count, illness doesn't count.

Game time is forfeit time.

However, if the official would say "ya know the game is around a certain time and I'll make the decision based on how I feel so live with it," and you end up forfeiting a number of times,then you have to make a decision if all that training is worth it.

I could care less if you roll this turn back or not, whether Dr P and his team wins the game or not, or if I play in another one of these games or not. I was only trying to say I ACTUALLY saw the dang timer change and I set my alarm to account for the fact that it could change agian. I never asked for it to be rolled back, I was only (and rightfully) upset that I did everything I could do and it STILL made me stale and I let my team down.

And then was told that someone was watching the timer and it didn't change....Well, it DID change, and I am also tired Dr P of spending a good portion of the few hours I have free trying to get this turn in and not have a fixed deadline, so I understand your frustration.

Congrats to the winners!! Good game to the losers!!

Thanks Chris and Squirrel for teaching me a number of things I didn't know. Game over gentlemen
