John Paul Jones' ship was the Bonhomme Richard and I seriously doubt that he and his crew were playing baseball.

LOL@ Silly goad, think so?....... The fun is over peace is restored! Move on!!!

I bet you didn't even notice my Vacation flag is down now. Do you think that would happen if I was 'heavily chastised'? In case you don't understand it means I can now be put in challenges! 😉

But you said Dive's game load would be significantly increased while you were on vacation. (And you were 'gone' for about 3 days).

I didn't expect it to end in 3 days is why I said he would have a heavier gameload which he would have had I been on Vacation time longer, as would my other clanmates.

I only have one regret is the Challenges that were pending had to be cancelled because a challenge cannot be started while one of the people in the challenge is on Vacation. Suzie Q can tell you the work that goes into making up a challenge providing she checks out all of the opponents which I assume she does.

It is done and over with now, and we just move on. We are both very strong willed stubborn people who don't take crap off of anyone including each other. We just shouldn't have put our dirty laundry out in the public forum.
