I don't get this owner: jamacanheat

He has had his team on autopilot since 4/10 (same for his Warning Track and Wrigleyville teams). He doesn't check in on his teams. He doesn't respond to sitemails. If he's on vacation, he didn't let me know (as I ask all owners in our league).

I asked WIS to contact him. I just don't get it, though. Three teams on autopilot out of five -- that's $74.85 down the drain.

a million things could have happened since the 4/23. If he goes 10 days then he can be booted. He could have gotten sick, someone in his family got sick, etc. Send a sitemail, if he reads it you know hes around and just ignoring things.

It's only been six days.

People DO go on vacation. Courtesy dictates that he should notify his worlds that he's going to be away, but I think it's a bit premature to be calling him out in the forums.

He was away for a few days. Happens to the best of us.

In other news, $75 is a good night out at the bar, and all you get out of it is a hangover. People flush more than that away all the time.

All HBD play is "throwing $$$ down the drain."

I'm pretty sure Merle doesn't roll that way.

I'm not calling him out for possibly being sick or being on vacation this week.

He has three teams on autopilot. The teamin Ron Cey has been on autopilot for 17 days. That's not tied to any vacation this week.

And he hasn't responded to multiple sitemails, going back roughly a month.

Sitemail is tough - they should really have a sitemail indicator on the main world page.

Yep, I was playing for six weeks before I even knew sitemail existed.

But, has he read them? You can check in your sent box. If you have sent ultimatumish sitemails, and he opens them and doesnt respond, you may be successful with an early booting.

I miss them all the time since the redesign, which was what, about six months ago?

WIS said that if he doesn't show up for 14 days (he's now at 7), he can be replaced. Otherwise, all they can do is make sure he isn't allowed back for next season.

Ultimately, he's wasting his time and ours.

He has not ready any of four sitemails sent between 4/4 and 4/27. ... which I think is just further proof that he doesn't care.
