    Yancy ,, here is a hint for getting back to green , Play " Point and Click " .  Load up with Starter balls and play a fast as you can with your friends , The score does not matter ,  In the time it takes to play one good round O blits you could bang out 3 or 4 fast games to the finish .

    Big Thanks to Opy!
    We played 2 Blitzes --- Both of which disconnected....I may be worse of after today than before LOL. Had maybe 6 disconnects today --- and other tech issues and general weirdness --- which has lead to many players not getting a round in --- I am sincerely sorry.

    To fix this ---- This is getting extended thru tomorrow until kick-off time at SuperBowl.
    I may also be back tonight for a spell --- Did 6.5 hours solid today, and tried to do the best possible job (was by myself today - as this was a last minute idea):

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    PLEASE -- IF YOU DIDNT GET TO PLAY TODAY -- GAME BACK ON TOMORROW
    IF YOU WANT PLEASE POST HERE FOR A LIST OF NAMES THAT I WILL MAKE SURE GET TO PLAY IN THIS -- EVEN IF IT RUNS TILL NEXT WEDNESDAY.

    I (this is Yancy) AM SO THANKFUL FOR ALL THE SUPPORT IN THIS UNUSUAL CAUSE, AND HAD A BALL TODAY WHEN THINGS WERE RUNNING SMOOTH
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Gonna break off here and get some food etc... Will be in/out tonight at times, hit me up anytime. Back on tomorrow at app. 10am PST
