Hi everyone,<br>
Would you believe that I went to my gym this morning for yoga and a run, and within 10 mins of the yoga class, the gym was evacuated for fire? There was a smokey haze and a strong electrical burning smell. So instead I'm heading to the salon to get a fancy pedicure, and hopefully after that I'll be able to return to the gym and at least get my run in, and some weights.<br><br>
If not, then I'll do the stationary bike at home, and do some of my own yoga with the DVD that I have.<br><br>
Hey -- we need a real team name, not just the letter "J". Any ideas? Something strong and powerful?????<br><br>

Nothing for me today or Sunday. Looking at getting in 6 miles tomorrow though. As for Now like I posted yesterday I will be taking Friday and Sunday as rest days. Unless I decided on some cross training on Friday.

Not a silly question at all...<br><br><a href="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18363" target="_blank">http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18363</a><br><br>
There will be a 'daily' points thread like the one above. I think sometimes on the weekends there might just be one thread instead of daily...<br><br>
The learning curve for this game is pretty quick - but it's early yet, so feel free to ask any questions here, and I'm sure someone who's been around will be able to answer them!<br><br>

There's a scoring thread for all teams every day. <a href="http://kickrunners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18363" target="_blank">You can find it here</a>. Though come to think of it, there would be advantages to doing a thread of our own. Still, it wouldn't feel like we're all playing at the same time. It would be like we're in our little world/stadium.<br><br>
I haven't come up with an good suggestions for a name. All good ideas welcome.

I agree it seems silly for over all teams to be posting their individual results in the same thread, then you have to wade through all the postings just to find all our team mates.

Thanks for the support. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"><br><br>
I'm not ready to pull the trigger on this one yet. Let's post to the overall daily thread. If it is too much hassle, I'll suggest we try our own thread then. If it is a hassle for me, it will probably be a hassle for the other team captains as well. Then, we can have a change that will be good for everybody.

<span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span style="color:#FF0000;">I'm all for color coding along with distinctive typefaces.</span></span></span><br><span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span style="color:#FF0000;">I like Arial Black, size 4. Very distinctive. So let's start there.</span></span></span><br><span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span>Pink stands out.</span></span></span><br><span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span style="color:#FF00FF;">I worry some won't like it. <span style="color:#FF0000;">Red</span> seems like it will be common. Maybe too common.</span></span></span><br><span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span>No one will use orange. I would suggest it for that reason.</span></span></span><br><span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span style="color:#FF8C00;">Edit - No one, except Team L. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"><span>*sigh*</span></span></span></span>

Great idea! The template for colors is pretty limited, however. We can get as close as we can...so long as it doesn't make the text invisible. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

How about J for "just stay outta our way"?<br>
"jumping into first place"?<br>
"jumping ahead"<br>
"Jealous that you're not on our team?"<br>
"Just blowing right by you"<br><br>
C'mon, we can think of something......<br><br>

If you make that <span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span>Arial Black, size 4</span></span></span>, I think it's readable.<br>
The more <span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span style="color:#00FF00;">Neon Green</span></span></span> shows a little better.<br><br>
Wine colors...are a little lacking. We have <span style="font-family:'Arial Black';"><span style="font-size:large;"><span style="color:#800080;">concord grape and <span>maybe a Pink Zin.</span></span></span></span>
