OPSAGE: Second Quarter 2010

The OPSAGE post will appear quarterly from now on.

If, other than our regular indoor football games, anyone would like to propose a project, sport, activity, game or event over the next month or so, please add a comment below.

The indoor football games on Tuesday and Thursday nights, 9 to 10 pm, at The Cage, and Sunday evenings, 5 to 6 pm, at Turf City, have been very regular since the GIFFA System was introduced in November 2009.

The Wednesday night game from 9 to 10 pm at The Cage is becoming more regular, while I will try to re-start the Saturday evening game later this month.

Two additional games I would like to consider over the course of this year are:

• A more relaxed game, where those who don’t have much experience of playing football, or who are returning from injury, can just have a kick about.
• An over-40s game.

Only a few people ever contributed to general chat and jokes on the blog.  Since I moved these sections to the message board, there have been no contributions at all.

In January 2010, the following boards were introduced under the “General” category of the GIFFA Message Board:

• “Football & Sports Chat – Chat about football and any sport played anywhere. “
• “Jokes – For Rajseran and Yaseen“.

I’ll replace these with two new boards:

• Suggestions.
• Chat.

The “Fun” page has been amended accordingly.

The “Suggestions” board can cover anything, including OPSAGE.

It is hard to believe it is just over a year since we had the result of our “Last Comic Standing / Anakin Skywalker” poll.   A lot has happened since then.

Most people just want to play football.  The message board works for that reason.  It has also allowed me to reduce the amount of work I do to continue with our regular indoor football games, making the system more sustainable.
