I do not mean the time that corresponds to the "crime" each one has been committed.

I understand that Bill and his staff are clear about that aspect.

But not long ago, I remember that our good friend Kyote was "imprisoned" for several days (he was finally released) and part of the explanation of why he was sent to the Dawghouse so many time was that days on weekends were added.

Therefore, if you "break the law" on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday and you are 2 days off, there is no problem.

BUT … if you make a slip up on Thursday or Friday, these two days are transformed into 4 or 5 because Saturday and Sunday are considered days of penalty.

Imho this is not right!.

Many people only can used their pc on weekends and other can managed to participate more because they have not to work.

So, as the penalty for those on Dawghouse is worst on weekends than in Labor days, I propose not to be consider Saturday and Sunday as "amounting days" if you failed on Thursday or Friday.

Much more serious would be that if you just violated the rules on Thursday and you deserves 2 days of "jail", you can re-engage on Saturday… not on Monday.

What do you think about this?

If you want to change the rule, bring it up for a vote.

The problem is that someone breaks the rules on Friday, and doesn't participate on the weekend, then his 3 days of Dawghouse are really only one actual day.

Too much bookkeeping. Leave it alone and consider it "fog of punishment" ….or hold off your offensive behavior to a more advantageous day. Life is not fair!

So, you know who participate or not on the weekends?
That's a good amount of info!. (smile)

Theoretically, I could write some code to track that.

But is that really the best use of my time right now? grin

Of course not…
Free the Weekends!!! (smile)
Just kidding Bill.

I really don't care, I'm afraid, one way or the other.

I am with Mr. Treadaway, however I like Weasel's punishment formula.

I would vote to eliminate the weekend nonsense.
