Hey Jeff,

Can you please look into how folks are sponsoring all breed no handlers? It looks like some how they are using the breed specialty sponsor system to create no handler all breed shows.

The current show is on Jan 29.

Thanks
Will

This has happened before - and according to Jeff the last time he made some change to 'ensure this doesn't happen again'... So obviously that didn't work ...

Well personally, I don't see it as a problem. I love no handlers.

I'm confused how there's even a sponsored show on the 31st. Is there no World Cup show this month?

Good point! (Well done on picking that up!)

Yet another reason why I feel like this game is really starting to lose it's charm.

I would have to agree, and with my Canadian dollar being so low right now the game is costing even more than "normal" each month sad :(

Yeah, I am beginning to wonder what my money's being used for.... If I'm supporting other games, that's just not fair. If Jeff cannot maintain this game, then it needs to be offered 'as is' at a reduced cost. JMO - but I guess if we all keep paying, nothing will change.

Every single month I wrestle with the exchange rate and if I should keep going another month. I start school full time tomorrow, so that may make the decision for me. As Kaylinda said too, it sometimes feels like our fees are supporting other games. The only thing thats kept me here this long this go round is that I dont want to give up all the hard work I put into my breeding program in the past year.

If you guys are trying to maintain family accounts, why not cut back to a standard account that way you can still play but not have to worry about the expense. You can always sub a family acct back later when its more flexible for you.

It might also up your enjoyment factor since you won't have as much time tied up with multiple kennels too.

I'm not sure that is so much the issue, it's more like trying to weigh up if the service is worth the money. Let's face it if we go to a nice restaurant & get poor service you think twice about going back. We all have tremendous loyalty to Jeff and the game so decisions like this can be tough.

On a sort of related note to the nonhandler all breed shows, there aren't any breed specialities in several of my breeds until December 2016. Usually we see the next month's specialty almost as soon as the most recent one has run.

Ive never had a family account. Used to have 2 premiums, but am down to this one only.
