  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Ha! I thought he was gonna say tell your dad.
Yup...

:rofl: Nice one though.

We see that all the time in Youth hockey around here and I saw it a lot growing up in Youth soccer/baseball. Parents are psychotic sometimes about their kids and playing time.
