The only thing "mutual respect dictates" is that the players appreciate the time and efforts involved that the CM's volunteer to put forth to make this event possible. The only thing "mutual respect dictates" is that the players thank the CM's for these efforts.
The logs are usually posted within hours of each event. From this one can infer the general outcome as to which side won or loss.
To demand that the CM stay up for several additional hours late at night to further score an event shows your lack of "mutual respect".

Thanks WxMan. I can't say it better than you did.
MGD over a year ago I told the FSO team to stop posting results for each frame. That would be your 'lack of interaction from the CM's'. I want them (and they have been doing this) to just post up a final score and break it down as they see fit. It saves the CM's time and squabbles on the forums and help reduce the posts from players who don't respect the time and efforts of the CM's. :D
Mutual respect dictates that we can get some scores within a few hours of the frame being held.
Never have and never will ask my team to stay up late and score into the wee hours of the morning.

The logs are posted as soon as possible after the event ends. Sometimes the ahevents.org site decides it doesn't want to work in the early hours of the morning so they are posted first thing Saturday morning.
I agreed with FSO team completely when the subject of not posting the scores for the individual frames came up. The overall score is the only one that matters. It's that simple!
You are trying to make an issue over something that is a non-issue. Directly insulting Daddog or any other CM for that matter will not help you make this an issue. It's uncalled for and out of line.
If you are simply looking for an argument, look somewhere else besides the CM team. You will not get one here. I've instructed the CM team to ignore this thread and not respond to it.

Never been in my shoes. ;)
Well, I keep sticking around in the hopes that I will get it right one of these times. :D
No CM's are volunteer's. They are paid to help provide a service. And brother service sucks lately!
Really? :O How much do we get paid? Someone please tell HTC. I will call Dale and tell him to get on the ball. :)
Do as you please MGD. Score them all you want, but the only score that matters will be from the Admin CM. Everyone knows that.
Insult me all you want, but my FSO team provides a service for the events community and they do a great and often thankless job. Participation in FSO is a privilege, not a right. Continue to belittle their efforts and you will find yourself out of FSO.

MGD, I think that you are *way* out of line here. The CM Team puts time and effort into FSO. Your posts in this thread come across as both ungrateful and rude.

FSO attendance seems more important than scoring.

I could give two chits about the score. I look at the logs the next morning to see how my squad and I did. I might look at the side totals to see overall who did better at killing stuff. Score is nothing more than an arbitrary numerical value placed on objects to try to make things easier to grasp for some people.
I have no complaints about FSO, other than how some people seem to feel compelled to act like ungrateful spoiled children.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a treat...today we have a real life idiotnet romper room chest thumper on display in our cyber world. If you watch closely you will see a display unlike anything that can be witnessed in nature...a less than zero grasp of reality. This particular specimen is rare even among the local population for it's larger than normal ego. It is a result of no real world social skills, less than normal human social interaction and a real world submissive effeminate self perception.
The truly amazing thing is if you were to come face to face with this particular specimen, there wouldn't be such a display although I'm sure it would make an intitial attempt. If it does attempt to show it's over inflated ego, just look it in the eyes and give it an alpha male masculine display and it will be docile.
LMAO!!!
:aok

This just gotta be a troll, right? That can't be the real MGD. Reg'd since October? Only 8 posts? Come on man!

Ah if its a troll then I will bite.
I will say that some things with FSO do seem screwed up. What I really do not like is when someone brings up a perceived problem with FSO up the first response is "they volunteer so accept it." Now MGD could have been more tactful but these are problems that I have heard many people express their displeasure of. Also some CMs say volunteer if you have a problem as if I were to say I volunteer I would be accepted and have a say in the setups tomorrow. This to me is a misleading. If I volunteer and tomorrow I could have a say in things I would do and will do it right now.
If MGD was a CM and has been here for a long while then maybe we should listen to him.

So the scoring thing is an *actual* problem? Seriously? To tell ya the truth I hadn't noticed. Not even on my radar screen even after I've CO'd a side. Priorities people. This should be way low on anyone's list. "Get a life" comes to mind. I just had to say and I'm a pretty quiet guy here.

During my forty+ year stint in customer support/relations, a few hard core truths have emerged.
One of them is people who publicly admonish volunteers are not really looking for problems to be solved. They are looking for attention or looking to raise themselves above those who have authority.
Best advice I can give anyone is to ignore people like this. I will also state we (HTC) have a zero-tolerance attitude towards those who do chose to be derogatory towards players who volunteer their free time to give back to the community.
There is a right way and a wrong way to address any concerns or issues you have with any event. This particular thread displays the incorrect way to do it. If you cannot be respectful, then you are going to go about it all wrong.
