LMS - Last Man Standing.. Not FMS (First Man Standing) - This game is for night time only, not morning, afternoon, or evening.. NIGHT TIME ONLY!!

At night while most of the world is sleeping there are some members which are looking to socialize since they have no one else to speak to; they play a really exciting and fun game which basically every couple minutes you write a comment, the comments range from standing to sleeping, from young grasshoppers to old grasshoppers. it usually begins around 1:00 am EDT

RULES OF THE GAME:

1) Game starts at 1am Eastern, 12am Central, 11pm mountain, 10pm pacific... You get the point.
2) Anyone can call a roll call, just make a reply with "Roll Call". The roll call must be readable to the naked eye.
3) No more than one roll call every thirty minutes.
4) You have 30 minutes to respond to the roll call to stay active.
5) To respond to a roll call just post a reply with "Here" or "y y y"
6) If after one hour there are no more "Roll Calls" or "Heres", then the last person to post correctly either by calling a roll call or with a reply of "here" is declared winner of LMS.
7)You must have been awake for at least 12 hours before making or answering a RC.



OR IN SHORT:

When someone calls for a roll call. No more than one every 30 minutes and you have 30 minutes to respond "Here".

But is it insane to spend $150 or $250 per person on a fancy dinner? Probably depends on your means (and tax deductibility) I suppose.

Tax deductibility of dinner... maybe in your business it is fully tax deductible, most people are not in the business of reviewing food or food establishments, so it falls under meals & entertainment which are only partially deductible.

Now $150-$250 on a fancy dinner, isn't $50-$100 on a glass of wine.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

DDF Likes are forever, right @YitzyS?

Everything on DDF is subject to Moderator Actions, so it can't be forever.

Yes, it's likely that a decent amount of that will be on alcohol.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I specifically didn't put a number, let anyone decide for themselves what expensive or super expensive means.
I believe the same is for investing in a nice lawn, but not everyone agrees with me.........

(Edited mostly to correct number of darts for third item.)

If you allow toy guns in your home, these look like good value:

$30 - X-Shot "Turbo Advance", 40-round capacity drum, includes 96 darts:

$25 - X-Shot "Crusher," 35-round (expandable) capacity belt, includes 48 darts:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083TJ1JLT/?tag=cl03f-20&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
(^Also in BJ's for about $23 with a current $3 coupon.)
$10 - Additional 35-round belt length and 60 darts:

That's because they're used to hearing him live.  Everyone else hears the same shiur in 4 hours 15 min.

When my response to a post immediately follows said post, and is obviously a response to said post,
I don't feel the need to 'quote' said post.

What does it take to click "quote" rather than "reply"?

Your post might be on a new page, someone else might post, etc.

It simply makes it easier to follow a thread.

Mostly agree, except when the previous post is super long the cons outweigh the pros.

On that note, I've long been a proponent of an automatic ban on anyone who quotes an entire TR. Still trying to convince the other mods lol.

You should be forced to snip and reply to each item separately.
