Daily Post--3/22/08

This topic is directly about the challenge... How do you feel about the inactivity rule? If someone doesn't post for 3 weeks straight (to the roll call post), then they are shifted to the inactive roster until such time as they post again and their weight loss is not counted towards the total group loss at any time. I used to shift people after 2 weeks of not posting, but had started with 3 weeks during the Valentine's day round. We usually start with 170 to 200 active folks at the beginning of a round and by the end are down to between 100 to 120 people. A few drift back through at the very end of the challenge and then their weight is included, but if they don't post, then it is as if they were never a part of the group...

I think it's fair. Can't really count them in the total weight loss if they don't update Cheers!

Seems fair to me.

It's fair.

seems fair

I think it is releavant. I see it as you are taking the time to manage this whole thing and try to help those who want to be accountable, be accountable. I think it is perfectly okay and warranted.

Hi Lea I agree with the others here. Giving people 3 weeks is plenty of time for them to decide if they want to continue or not. Two weeks might have run across some vacationers but 3 weeks is good. BTW, you are doing a fantastic job!!! I thank you so much! Jolene

I think it's fair. Jules

I think it is completely fair. We are all adults and it takes less than a minute to post your current weight. You dedicate a lot of time in organizing this so people should respect that. Happy Easter weekend Everyone! Denise

I think it's fair. Missing 1 week here or there is one thing but 3 in a row it alot.
