If they want to have fun, they won't do it. Otherwise we'll keep on going, we'll just ignore those kind of people.

Lets try it out. If anybody wants to go they can go.

Too many ideas dhoniisbest. You can leave the Indianators and join the Ideators.

I know, I don't like the word Ideators, DF. When you say it sound like you're saying Idiator.

Does it sound good?

I think we must just leave it alone. Some newcomer will see and come up with an idea. All the sticky threads like this, World Cup 2007 and all were made my member who have now forgotten about this forum and were new.

Do I sense the end of the thread! Will this be the first ever funeral on the forum?

More to the point, is this thread dead?

No its not, it will start again later on. Leave it alone, this thread was dead, but then some people started posting so it kept going from 90.

Don't worry about it, somebody will come up with good stuff.

It's not the first to die, what about all of the locked threads littering the forums.

Why don't we continue the way we decided on at the very beginning of this thread?

We continued for a long time, but it got boring.

This thread is dead guys, might as well let the MODs lock it, it's got boring.
 
At the very least it should lose its place at the top of the board.

 I'd go with this Tongue
County Sim on extended break until I've got less work and more free time. When I have a specific date, I'll post it in the thread.

That sounds like a good idea, start again, someone posts a question and then everyone has to try and answer it
 
I'll start if you want.

Is it going to move into the Fun & Games Section. I'll start and not waste much time. We can't afford to delay this thread anymore. Sorry Slogger.

I'll start of with an easy one: How many runs and centuries has Mohammed Yousuf made this year?

You can get the asnwers on this forum itself.

this actually happened in a game I umpired.
 
I was standing at the bowlers end when a young bat hit the ball back to the bowler who caught it. The team appealed, my first instinct was that it was a bump ball and I went to confirm this by going to talk to square leg umpire, in the meantime the bowler got the hump that the young lad didn't walk and gave him some grief. This made the young lad start to walk and he got to the edge of the square but the other bat called him back becuase I had not given a decision yet. heated discussion ensued! The other Umpire also thought it was bump ball so when I returned I spoke to the bowler and told him Both Umpires thought it was not out. He then claimed that the lad had given himself out by walking. ( I was unsure on this point as to what stage he would have given himself out as he had barely reached the edge of the square)
 
I resolved this by talking to the fielding captain and explaining that I and the other Umpire thought the bat was not out, however he had walked but I thought that was becuase of the pressure put on him by the bowler and not becuase he was out - in that case would the skipper be happy for him to carry on batting. He was fine with that and the game resumed, (later the skipper told me he din't think he was out either!)
 
My question is - When is a batsman deemed to have given himself out
and secondly Did I handle the situation correctly?
 
What made this worse for me was that I was the bowling sides Umpire in this 3rd X1 league match! The lads didn't hold a grudge though.
 
 
 
 
Peace and goodwill to all men .... and aussies
