I believe the pizza loot of $240 was sent in its entirety to Diesel. After knocking off 30% ($72), that leaves $168. One-seventh of $168 is $24, which is your monetary share of the proceeds.

I personally feel you should have to be in New York to collect on that, but that is a team decision. It's not supposed to be a monetary reward, but a food party. If you miss Thanksgiving Dinner at Aunt Mildred's house, she's not supposed to mail you a drumstick.

The team should vote on this matter.

Since I am a member of this league, I too feel that I have a say (but if most feel it is a "winning team" decision year to year, that is fine). This past year I know Steger didn't show up for the "pizza party" in Chicago, and in so many words..... "tough titty". (I think Welp showed up after the pizza was gone also?)

I agree 100% with KOQ that the $$$ should go to the PARTY, not the individual. If people make the choice not to come, that is THEIR choice.

If I didn't go to Chicago last year, I would have NEVER even thought about asking for $$, in place of pizza.

if the entry fee was $135 why is the check SNAKE recieved only for $125?A question for Tamu, as his post from September was used to determine this.

...thought it was resolved at $135 actually...not a big deal but what hapenned?...SNAKE since Greg has now outsourced the prize payt processing to India it's most likely the conversion between Rupee and US dollars. The rate is constantly fluctuating. If your payt went out in september for instance you would have rec'd around $144
