Drop me a little note at work if you NEED to know !!!

[Gopho Sapiens]

It seems there is an ever so slight problem down at my ISP.


I finally received my "heads up" at 3:40 PM.


I hope this is not a precursor to something larger.

Yeah I had a problem too...what is going on?? Should have heeded my warning and started later...now we will fail...NOOOOOOO!!!!!! http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/rolleyes.gif

I got my warning at 2:44. I wish I had Roadrunner!!!

[jen]

I got the email around 2:45.

[Chuck Murray]

Looks like the e-mail warning message is basically useless. I'll discontinue use of it for tomorrow. Just come to the thread at a couple of minutes before the hour and you should all do OK.

Jenna - between your comments and those of Babbitt, I've gotta confess my curiousity is getting the better of me ... http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/eek.gif http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/wink.gif

[Jenna]

Wow, inquiring minds want to know !!

My email was full of PLEASE TELL ME !!!

Technically the name of the facility is The Ritchie Center...of which Magness Arena is a part.

I remember whn the real Jeopardy show had the answer..."This "springs" town lies at the foot of Pikes Peak in Colorado" and the contestant correctly questioned "What is Manitou Springs" and that was judged to be an incorrect answer. (They were expecting the question what is Colorado Springs?). Pretty funny looking back at it.

Shouldn't all answers be in the form of a question and vice-versa? I'm just a purist I guess.

Oh sorry...I'm butting in...carry on...

Oh, BTW, since Chuck is the host for this...will he be sued for assault the next time he goes to the airport? http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/wink.gif

[Badgers1]

I've yet to receive the warning email for the question. As you I know you wanted to know the time span for them.

[jen]

I haven't gotten the email yet either.
I think we have 5 minutes from when the question is posted.

[Chuck Murray]

First question ready to go at 9:00 a.m. Central time. No e-mail warning to be used.

Jeez Jenna - and no response from you ... http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/frown.gif

[Jenna]

You will have mail..

I had "Plans" http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/smile.gif

[Chuck Murray]

I'm here and ready to go at the top of the hour folks. Good luck, and after the first question is done, we'll go over scheduling for later in the day ...
