You know those little messages your scout leaves at the end of most reports about the kid "arguing with officials" and "leaving guys open"? Well, I've always wondered what's different about the "ride the bus" kid. Can anyone please decipher it for me?

First of all, ignore all those messages. They were pertinent when we had dilemmas and it was important to recruit kids with good character.

The 'ride the bus' kid means he's down to earth and doesn't feel he's too good to ride with the "regular" kids.

I would guess that those messages also might tell you how likely a player is to accept a booster gift.

Sometimes you get messages like: The kid is what they call a playa. I would assume a player like this is less likely to report a booster gift than a ride the bus kid.

Or maybe it has nothing to do with it, what ever happened to that conference people were joining to test booster gifts anyway?

That's actually what I had always thought it was. But I've never if tried a booster, so it doesn't matter much to me anyways.
