Alright, I'm going to try to remember to post updates as frequently as there is new information about our tools and our website and the league overall. So get used to seeing these and remember to visit the message board frequently.
Blind Bidding System - Just as I thought, this tool is beyond my capacity to develop on my own. I went thru almost all of the HTML and form creation lessons at W3Schools along with a deep dive on GitHub. My brain started to melt, so I put some additional feelers out there for assistance. If anyone knows of a web developer that has time for a side project, I can afford to pay them for the time and effort (as long as the rate is reasonable). If you have any leads, refer the person to my league email. Or email me contact information and I will reach out to them.
Website Update - The website itself will get a makeover after I figure out what additional features are going to be worth the time creating. Suggestions are welcome and I will create a thread for website suggestions. I think right now the plan is to move to a black and white theme so that our standings and other pages generated by the DMB program are easier to read. Beyond that, the only new feature I have planned at the moment is the blind bidding system.
Open Teams - I have one new GM that I am going to email tomorrow to get them setup with a team and prepped for T2 FA. Still leaves 4 open teams and some feels bads about bidding against committee members instead of another GM. I assure you that my goal is to make this the last year we go thru it this way.
Committee Structure - I will be announcing changes to the rules committee on Tuesday. The first thing you all need to know is that I'm going to reinstate the title of commissioner and give it to myself! I've decided that there needs to be a guy people can grumble about when a decision is made that isn't popular. The second part of this topic you need to know is that I do know how many of you have volunteered to help. I will be asking for additional help once we get the season started, but I wanted to get things setup for the transition sooner rather than later. Please don't feel left out.
Reply to this thread if you have any questions and I'll respond tomorrow afternoon.
Thanks to everyone for working with me while I get things back on track.
