Team Roster Change
Team Trouble is down to just Mary. Jared had a conflict crop up that will
keep him unavailable for several months. Hopefully he will be interested
in returning next fall. So, if anyone knows someone who is looking to
bowl, please spread the word that we have an opening. We once again have
two spots on that team, which can be taken by two men, or a man and a
woman. Rule Reminder: Resigning from a Team
Two weeks' notice is required under USBC rules (Rule #114a,
"Procedure for Withdrawing") during which time the bowler may
still bowl (or not) and during which regular league fees continue to
accrue, unless the position is replaced. If a bowler cannot bowl during
those two weeks, they may either get a substitute or be considered absent.
If the two weeks go by without finding a permanent replacement, the
position returns to a Vacant status. See http://www.bowl.com/rules/rulebook.aspx
for the online rule book, and search for "114a" to find the complete
official description. 105th Annual Michigan State Bowling Association Tournament
(2008)
It's in the neighborhood this year! The team event will be at Oak Lanes in Westland, and the doubles/singles events will be at Westland Bowl. Just $20 per bowler and 5-person mixed teams. Entries are open thru April, and bowling dates are January-April. Anyone interested?

December 5, 2007 Week 12
End of First Half Approaching: December 12
We've got just one week left in the season's first half. The half ends on
Week 13, which is December 12. This will be a regular position round. The
team with the most points in the standings at the end of that night will
be the winner of the first half. Remember that substitute scores cannot be
used on a position round. Subs are welcome to bowl, but they will pace
only.
Holiday $Cash$ from Plaza Lanes:
December 12
Plaza Lanes is providing each team with a small gift of $5 cash. But which
bowler gets it? On December 12, our half-ending position round,
we'll hand it out to the one bowler on each team who bowls the highest scratch
series score over their average. What better contest to have on a
position round night, when the half winner is at stake. (Wish it was more
$$ but oh well.)
League Holiday Food Fest: December 19
We are asking Plaza if we can have our annual holiday "food
fest" on December 19. (We don't want to do
it on Dec 12, because that's a position round for end of the half,
and food just might be a distraction.) So plan on bringing a dish to share
on December 19. Also be sure to bring any serving utensils or special
serveware (plate vs. bowl, toothpicks, etc) your item might need.
**NOTE: Only food items are allowed on this night. No outside beverages of
any kind will be permitted. (Per laws and ordinances of the Michigan
Liquor Control Commission and the Wayne County Health Department.)
Holiday Time Off: December 26
We have only one week off during the holidays. We do not bowl on December
26. We are back for the new year on January 2.
USBC Achievement Awards
Several bowlers achieved honor scores tonight, but already received USBC
recognition for the same award on a previous week. USBC does keep track of
an award however many times you earn it, however, they don't send out the
goodies (patch, pin, etc) for it more than once a season. The achievement
scores are:
-
Santo Lupo, 75 pins over average for a
series total of 617
-
Theresa Belser, 180-199 game award for
Game 3 score of 197
-
Dan Finkelstein, 200-249 game award for
Game 3 score of 218

November 28, 2007 Week 11
End of First Half Approaching
We've got just two weeks left in the season's first half. The half ends on
Week 13, which is December 12. This will be a regular position round. The
team with the most points in the standings at the end of that night will
be the winner of the first half. Remember that substitute scores cannot be
used on a position round. Subs are welcome to bowl, but they will pace
only.
Welcome to New Bowler Lou
Lou Abraham joins Team Comeback Kids as a permanent bowler. Due to ongoing
health issues, Steve Brookins will not be able to rejoin the team. We wish
him all the best, and hope he is able to stop in to visit from time to
time.
League Holiday Party
It's just about time for our annual "food fest" pot luck night.
We are asking Plaza if we can do this on December 19. (We don't want to do
it the week prior, because that's a position round for end of the half,
and food just might be a distraction.) So plan on bringing a dish to share
on December 19. Also be sure to bring any serving utensils or special
serveware (plate vs. bowl, toothpicks, etc) your item might need.
**NOTE: Only food items are allowed on this night. No outside beverages of
any kind will be permitted. (Per laws and ordinances of the Michigan
Liquor Control Commission and the Wayne County Health Department.)
League Holiday Gift from Plaza Lanes
Plaza Lanes is providing each team with a small gift of $5 cash. But which
bowler gets it? On December 12, our half-ending position round,
we'll hand it out to the one bowler on each team who bowls the highest scratch
series score over their average. What better contest to have on a
position round night, when the half winner is at stake. (Wish it was more
$$ but oh well.)
About Legal Lineups (Rule Reminder)
Our league rules (point #15) state that a team must have one permanent
member bowling in each game, or else the team forfeits that game. USBC
Rules 110 and 111 remind us that a forfeit can be avoided by requesting a
prebowl or a postponement.
Q: What happens if no permanent members can be present, but we can get
a sub, is that okay?
A: Not at this time. USBC allows a sub to count towards a legal lineup if
the league permits (Rule 109a words it as "eligible player" not
"permanent member"), but our current league rules override this
point and do not allow it. **If we wish to change this league rule for
next season to allow a sub to count towards a legal lineup, we can discuss
at the preseason meeting for 2008-09.
About Fouls (Rule Reminder)
The discussion that kept many of us busy tonight involved getting a foul
on a strike ball. The wording of USBC Rule 6b "entitled to additional
deliveries in the frame" unnecessarily adds ambiguity to the rule.
Normally a strike means you don't get an additional delivery, but because
the first ball was foul, it was illegal pinfall, does not count, and was
not actually a strike -- meaning a second ball is allowed. If Rule 5a said
simply "Foul on first ball means you rerack and proceed to the second
ball", that would be so much clearer.
About Being Absent
Life happens, and absences will happen. Sometimes there are other things
in life more important than a bowling game. However, please contact
someone to let them know you will not be coming!! Call or email either a
teammate, your team captain, a league officer (secretary's cell phone is
734-546-2976), or Plaza Lanes (734-453-4880). Don't leave your teammates
and opponents standing around scratching their heads wondering if you will
or will not be showing up.

October 31, 2007 Week 8
Scoring Correction, Weeks 6 and 7
Plaza brought to my attention a discrepancy between what their computer saw as one bowler's total pins compared to the most recent standing sheet I gave them. The difference
occurred on Week 6 (Oct 17). Plaza's printout showed the bowler was marked as Absent for Game 1 and
their total games as 17, but our software's standing sheets were showing that he had bowled 18
games and not absent. What happened?
Going back to the original score sheets, no one marked that bowler as absent for Game 1.
NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT MARK A BOWLER OR SPECIFIC GAME as (A) FOR ABSENT, I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING if the score is an actual bowled score or if the person truly was absent.
I do not take attendance.
The bowler and team affected is Triple S and Santo Lupo. Since the software thought he had more pins and games than he did for Week
6, his average after bowling Week 6 was not calculated with the correct
data. (The effect on Week 7 was that Santo's average/handicap was 1 pin
off, and on Week 8 there was no difference.) I am regenerating all the scoring reports for Weeks 6 and 7 to show the correct data.
The Week 8 reports as posted here are correct, as the problem was fixed before
this week's reports were generated.
Please please be more attentive when you are reviewing the score sheets. It is each captain's responsibility to ensure
all information recorded is accurate - these sheets are our official record of the games.
And note that the secretary does not take attendance; you must mark on the sheet if someone is absent or not. Thank you.
USBC Achievement Awards
Mary Bergner earned a 160-179
Game patch for for her Game 1 score of
163.
Super Splits?

Week 8
If you've got trick or treating activities that night, don't forget to
arrange for a sub now or for a post-bowl with your opponent. (Too late now
to do a pre-bowl!) More info down below in the Week 4 news.
Addendum to the Standing Sheet Vote (PDF vs. GIF)
Just for the record, several more people voiced their preference last week
for the PDF version of the sheets. If there any other improvements or
changes you might want to see on this site, please let me know!!

October 17, 2007 Week 6
The Votes Are In
Not many, but I'll take what I can get... Last week's news asked if
you preferred the weekly standing sheets as GIF images or as PDF files.
The votes came in 3-0 (yes, all of three replies) in favor of PDF files,
with the comment that they print cleaner. So, from here out, you'll see
the standing sheets posted as a PDF file.

Sue Hodor made the 4-5-7.
Lil Path made the 3-7.

Super Splits
Santo Lupo made the 3-4-6-7-10. That's like the "Big 4" plus 1.
Nice work!
Lil Path made the 4-6.
USBC Acheivement Awards
Tony Kryka earned two USBC awards tonight. He earned a 180-199
Game patch for his Game 2 score of 198, and he earned a 500-599
series pin for his total pinfall of 540. Congrats, and nice bowling
tonight, Tony!
Hey Slowpokes!!
Just a reminder that practice time starts at 5:00pm sharp, the lanes
change over to Game 1 at 5:15pm, and we are to be done bowling per our
league contract with Plaza by 7:15pm. The league that follows us starts
their practice time at 7:30pm sharp, so let's all try our best to be out
of their way as soon as we can after our allotted time.
Computer Scoring Tips
Hopefully by now all the bugs in prefilled names and handicaps on the
scoring computers have been worked out. If you do need to change a
prefilled name, please select a complete name that the computer prompts
you with. That's how the computer tracks bowling stats from week to week,
by name. If the new name you enter doesn't match a name that the computer
knows (even though it may be for the same exact person), then the scores,
averages, and handicaps can't follow it. After several weeks of
this, you may notice that the handicap prefilled for that person is no
longer accurate.
Be sure to always double-check the handicaps displayed on the computer
screens before you bowl, and change them as needed. However, your changes
to handicaps (and names) will not carry over to the next
week; that must be done on the master computer in the back room (not even
the one at the front desk), and will take effect the following week.
Please notify your League Secretary if any discrepancies continue, and
I'll work with Plaza to get it corrected.
VOTE! Standings Sheets as GIF or PDF?
If you print the standing sheets on any given week, how does the GIF
file format work for you? Does it fit on one page OK? Does it come
out fuzzy on your computer?
Last year's version of the secretary software provided an option to
scale down the standings sheet pages before making the GIF so that it
would fit the page, while keeping the text crisp. This year's software
version however has dropped the scaling option. The original report is in a
different format, and I have to make some changes using graphics software
before posting the standings sheets on the web site. IMHO the quality of
the output has degraded over last year's method.
If I started producing the standings sheets in PDF format (like other
linked documents in the site), would this work better for you? You'd need
Adobe Reader (free!) to read them, if you don't already have that program.
For an example, click here to
see Week 5's standing sheet as a PDF file.
Please send me an email to
vote your preference, telling me if you want to continue viewing the
standings sheets as GIF files or if you'd like to see it as a PDF instead.
Thanks!!

October 3, 2007 Week 4
New League Adjacent to Ours
During Weeks 2 and 3, it was noticed by our teams on the
"end" lane that bowlers on this new league seem not to be
honoring the house rule of a 1-lane courtesy. I mentioned this to the desk
staff at Plaza, asking if they could have a word with that league's
officers. Done. It turns out that that league is comprised of new bowlers,
people who have never been on a league before, and maybe never even played
the game. So even though their officers were told about a 1-lane courtesy,
they likely don't remember or don't even know what that means. Plaza staff
will be coaching them to bring them up to speed on league play and house
rules.
Boo! It's Almost Halloween Trick-or-Treat Time
 |
You may have noticed that this year
Halloween falls on a bowling night (Week 8), along with many neighborhood
trick-or-treat times. If you would prefer to have family time for
kid activities, rather than bowl, note that you can request a
pre-bowl or postponement (your entire team vs. your opponent) if you
don't want to be 'absent' for a night.
Pre-bowls and postponement are defined in Rule 111 (points
111a-111f) in the USBC Rulebook. To paraphrase these rules: |
-
You
must make your request at least 48 hours prior to the original date of
the affected game.
-
You have until the
end of the half to make up the game, if you had asked for a
postponement.
-
The league's board of
directors must approve your request. The league secretary notifies the
bowling center of the change and makes the arrangements to have a pair
of lanes available.
-
Averages and
handicaps are figured as of the date/time the games are actually
bowled, NOT what they would have been on the original date.
You've got a couple weeks to think about this and talk it over with
your team. (To consider: Note that Week 9 is a Position Round; do you
want Week 8's scores to be figured into the standings, and can you get the
game done before that night?)
Bowlers Still Needed
Team "Trouble" has vacancies to be filled. Please talk to
friends, family, neighbors, etc to see if anyone wants to join our league.
Talking points you might want to mention are: our league's low $
commitment, our high fun factor (more social than competitive), and we're
done in time for golf season to start! We also can replace the BYE
team with actual people, if we find enough people to fill up a 10th team.
Super Splits
Lil Path picked up the 5-7 - twice!
Dan Finkelstein made the 5-10.

193.

September 19, 2007 Week 2
Thanks for Attending the Board of Directors Meeting
Thank you for attending the meeting before practice time tonight. I
called this meeting to discuss and resolve any misunderstandings about
scoring in a forfeit situation between Teams 5 and 6 (Fock N Pinz vs. Pin
Action). If a team does not show up and does not notify anyone of their
absence, this is a "known forfeit" situation, and the
non-forfeiting team must earn points in the same manner they would as if
they were bowling a blind/bye team. See USBC Rule #110c.
But then, the next question was, was Team Fock N Pinz even a team at
that point? We weren't exactly sure. Even though none of the team members
had informed the league of their intent to return, we had assumed that was
simply an oversight and had reserved their team's spot on the roster. In
reality, USBC Rule #104b tells us specifically that if a team does not
notify the league that they are returning, they do not exist. The
situation from Week 1 was therefore a blind/bye situation, and the scores
as originally entered will stand.
If at any time you have a question about the rules, please never
hesitate to ask! All officers (June, DeniseD, Tony, Kathy) have a rule
book, and I will be requesting additional copies so that each team captain
may also have one. Rules are also online on bowl.com at http://www.bowl.com/rules/main.aspx
-- scroll down till you see the image of the red Playing Rules book.

Santo was on a roll tonight, and made the 3-6-7-9-10, a 2-4-8-10, and a

August 29, 2007 Notes from Pre Season League Meeting
Attendance
All teams were represented except Pin Action,
Fock-N-Pinz, and Comeback Kids. Both Pin Action and Comeback Kids
have confirmed they are returning; however none of their bowlers could
make the meeting. Fock-N-Pinz hasn't reported to the league officers if
they are returning or not. (Renee, Chris, SueB, please let me know!)
Attendees were: Kathy Wyrwas, Dennis Todic, June Cannon, Denise
Goldie, Greg Skotzke, Tony Kryka, Kurt Bowers, Wendy Cherry, and Kevin
Gault (new member!). Kevin is at Unisys as a contractor. He'll be
replacing Kevin Murphy on Team Ladies and the Tramp. Plaza House
Rules. Kathy highlighted a few points about Plaza rules that were told
to officers at an officers pre-season meeting. Notably, no cigars or
pipes, no outside food (except holiday parties), no solicitation, check
cashing at counter ok. Our league rules. Next, Kathy pointed out
sections of the league bylaws that would be changing for this season.
These items and points of discussion are as follows.
-
Item 4. Dates will
obviously change. First week is Sept 12, final week is April 2, no
bowling on Nov 21 and Dec 26.
-
Item 6c. Will scores
on Doubles night count for standings? Invariable, on the week or two
before Doubles Night, someone asks if scores will count. The last
several years, they have NOT counted, its just a fun night. But, if
the majority of bowlers wishes, this can change. Those present
were okay with that week remaining a fun night. So, no changes here.
Double Night remains NOT to affect standings.
-
Item 11. Handicaps.
Since one new bowler last year consistently bowled over the set score
for handicaps, there was concern that this may give that team an
advantage over the others. A solution would be to change how we
calculate handicaps. One suggestion was to calculate hcp based on the
team pairups for any given night. Then what do if a sub was brought
in. Another suggestion was to simply raise the hcp limit and leave the
method as-is. This would affect no ones scores or standings, just
gives everyone a handicap. This second suggest was agreed upon
and a limit of 220 was set. Therefore, to calculate an individual
handicap, it's 100% of the difference between that bowler's average
and 220.
-
Items 14, 16.
Revisions to men's and women's averages. These numbers are subject to
change every year to reflect the previous season's averages. This
year, the women's average remains at 140, but the men's jumps to 171.
June recalculated to double-check. These averages are the default
scores for new bowlers who do not have an established association
average.
-
Item 27. Plaza raised
their per-bowler rate a bit, to $6 per person, up from $5.75 from last
year. What that means is an additional 25’ out of the $10 weekly fee
goes to Plaza instead of to our prize fund. Officer compensation
amounts will be changed in the bylaws to reflect the change in bowling
rate. Also, please note that while we have kept our weekly fee stable
at $10 for quite a number of years now, Plaza's per line fee has
steadily been increasing. Next year do not be surprised if we need to
increase our weekly fee several dollars to keep pace.
-
Item 29. Officer
names to be updated to reflect election results (below) if any
changes.
Updated league rules reflecting these changes will be posted on the
league web site. Officer Election. Over the summer and
among the meeting attendees, there were no new nominees for the officer
positions. No officer wanted to step down either. Officers remain the same
for this new season. USBC Certification. Brief summary of
the $21 change noticed on bowl.com (which I had sent out an email about).
The fee is just $19. The certification fee is due the first week of
bowling, along with league fees for the first and last weeks (total $39).
Certification application cards were not handed out (there is nothing to
fill out on them), but will be on your lane's table the first night of
bowling. USBC rule books. We received just 4 copies at the
pre-season officers meeting. These went to the league officers. Ideally
each team captain should have a rule book. Kathy will request a few more
copies from the Metro Detroit USBC office. Rules are also available online
on the bowl.com site:
