    Haven't set out any cameras since my one last year got stolen. Also still trying to find a place other than public.

    Here a few guys that are still running around this year that we found a few sheds to. I'll upload more pictures of different bucks but I lost most of my SD cards so don't have much on the computer anymore!

    We have the majority of the team checked in, need to decide on a team name and team captain.

    What's the reason for a team captain anyway?.... make someone feel important or what?

    I'm pretty sure it's so that there is someone from the team to communicate with the moderators so that you don't have hundreds of people bombarding them with input. The team captain kind of commits to spending more time on the forum that usual throughout the season to monitor the team and sort of keep things flowing the way they should, like making sure teammates post the required info and two required pics on a score thread. That kind of thing.

    I'm really jazzed by the team name "Nock Stars". I know we're missing three of our teammates, but they still have a week and a half or so to check in. In the meantime, how does everyone feel about "Nock Stars" as the team name.

    Second, does anyone want to volunteer for the team captain job? If there are no volunteers, it's simple. Everyone cast a single vote for a captain and the unlucky sucker who gets the most votes has the job. :D

    Nock Stars sounds good to me. But I definitely don't want to be captain, school and actually will keep me busy enough. I was captain before, so someone else can have the reins :tu:

    Are you sure? You just confirmed that you have experience and as we all know, experience is the first quality we look for in an employee. :D

    I don't need a damn babysitter. If someone cant follow simple instructions they shouldn't even be bow hunting.

    BTW, if you posted you were going to let the mods know what our name was after we agreed, do they think the whole team will do the same thing? Sounds like teachers of a kindergarten class if ya ask me.

    Don't even think about voting me for kindergarten teacher/diaper changer....lol

    I hear you! I can't begin to tell you how surprised I was to retire from the Navy and see how difficult it was to find an employee that would show up for work every day, let alone on time. :lol:

    Well, I guess we should pick someone and cast our vote then. Like I said, whoever get's the most votes has the job. Agreed?

    The avatar can wait, but the team name and captain need to be decided on before too long.

    Well, that's not the message I was trying to convey. It's just so that each team has one representative. Does that make more sense?

    Whoa, slow it down. Some of us need some instruction. I just got a new iphone and might need help uploading pictures for the contest. Or if the other three don't show it is the captains job to seek out replacements. Looking forward to getting the whole team here. Nock stars has my vote.

    You may not be trying to convey that message, but that's exactly the jist of it. If the mods cant get a simple answer out of a few adults on a team, this place is already screwed.

    Really? You need a damn team captain to show you how to post pics from your phone? Are you worried a few of us might get into a fight, arguing which one is going to help you post pics?
    As far as replacements, whats the big deal? Any of the members on the backup list would work, it's a toss up who will shoot what.

    I vote you as babysitter, that way if you ever have problems posting pics on your phone you'll never get it figured out since you have no captain to instruct you.

    Anyway.... I'll post up pics of my kill as the simple instruction thread says. You guys can bicker over a name and captain.

    I don't mean anything personally to anyone of ya, but some of this stuff seems as childish as a 3rd grade class.

    Didn't say anything about it not being fun.
    You only wish I'd back out, your team might just have a chance.

    Captains are required as part of the contest. The Captain is responsible for the things already stated, and are a single contact person for me if I have a question for the team. In the case of something coming up in the contest were a rule is to be amended or changed for the year or following year, the captains vote.

    I will add 50% of the people didn't even sign-up correctly, so having someone on each team that can help with getting deer entered correctly is greatly helpful.
