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".

If I ever borrow folding chairs from a neighbor, I specify---not those chairs.

Couldn't have been me.

OK. Tell me more
though this past Shabbos (indoors) I got into a major argument with DW over the chairs being too wide (trying to fit יחי chairs). Ended up swapping out a few for a bench acquired during the Amazon/Walmart price wars heydays.

Proceeds to say *exactly* what I wrote almost word for word, except* it was indoors and not a sukkah. Unreal.

*my post didn't even say it was a sukkah, only throwing another classic line an "elder" would rant about

(did one of your cousins tell you about the setting at my Shabbos table this week?)

Nothing to do with elder, more like male (practicality - "you must leave at least a drop of space between chairs, do you really need that many") vs female (looks - "I need a chair for every person, those black chairs look horrible, people will manage"). And then at mealtime when some extra bochurim showed up I just bravely told them to swap out a few chairs for a bench (those purple and orange benches are priceless - extremely comfortable, yet as DW would say "as ugly as it gets").

I was going to say I can neither confirm nor deny, but he confirmed it in attempting to deny it.

What are those?

יחי = 28 = number of expected people at Shabbos table.

I had never heard them called that before yesterday. Since when would it be appropriate to put your hint'n on יחי? I know some that might see a יחי chair as a challenge rather than an adjective

I have the same width problem with these:


Also, I would argue the original 'official chair' was these (though might be hard to find nowadays):

No *width* issue, maybe, but for plenty not having a back is extremely uncomfortable, and if you aren't the most nimble and you're a little shy, getting in and out is difficult and you often won't want to ask the person next to you to move. So you know, you just won't go to the bathroom for an hour. And if you want to stick a couple on there, that's opening yourself up to further issues.

I did say original.
OMG I can smell these
If you get any cloth chair dirty and let it sit, you'll have problems. Both my father and grandfather had a bunch of these and took good care of them. They stand up to the abuse much better than any just about any modern equivalent. Never had an issue with smell.

Supposedly they weren't available at all for a while, and now a company in Lakewood custom makes them - I've seen people get them covered with the same fabric as their actual dining chairs so that they'll all match.

Couples are seated across from each other.

If chairs are so tight that they're touching each other, getting in and out will be as uncomfortable, if not more so.

It's either or. With no back you don't have in and out issues usually, unless it's jam packed.
