    @jugar One of the TrimStones members was dropped in July due to several weeks of NWI in a row. Each time an NWI occurs, I contact them in PM, leave a posting for them in the chatroom, but this individual is very hard to reach and I never get responses. Last week, she posted a weigh in and again, I posted back and never got a response. Today there's another weigh in that was posted overnight. I've sent another message in PM and posted back in the chatroom with a reminder that she needs to re-register, but at this point, I don't think the Aug registration thread is still running (not sure), but it was when I last wrote to her. Here's the message I sent/posted. I'm not sure what else to do. I need your guidance please.

    wilsonkellies -- I replied back to you when you last posted, but I never received a response. You were removed from TrimStones back in July because you had several weeks with no weigh ins in a row. In order to be added back, you will need to re-register. I'm not sure the registration page for August is still open now, although it was when I last responded to you. If it's not, you can re-register to begin again in September. I'm sorry if you failed to see my response.

    Just to make sure you get this message, I'll send you a private message as well. Please respond back to one of the two so I know it was received. Great job on the loss. It looks like you're on track and doing well. I wish there was more that I could do, but I'm not sure what else to say...

    Keep on with what you're doing and rejoin us as soon as possible!

    I would be glad to put her back in right away if she is back to weighing in (last week and this week) - they don't necessarily have to go through the "official" registration if they get back in touch with the team. I don't mind more flexible ways for returning members to just start back up again, but it is great that you let them know they need to do some kind of confirmation. I'll go ahead and put her back on the team roster, and you can fill in whatever weigh-ins you have. I'll use the last weigh-in from July as starting weight, but that could be updated. Let's hope she sticks around and all is well! Does that work for you?

    Let me know if you would like me to send her a message as well. It is great that she is sending in weigh-ins and doing well again.

    I think a personal note to her would be nice. I'll go back now and find the last two weights and post them...thanks! The only reason I hadn't offered to just have her added back is that this wasn't the first time...the first time, I did, but after this second time, I thought I should follow protocol.

    Thanks,
    Jessica

    Yeah - I hear you on the protocol thing after someone disappears more than once. But it does no harm to have someone come and go. Sometimes it is all they can manage. I'll send a note and we'll see how it goes. I would not do this for someone who only just arrived and then left, but for someone who has been around for a while, it is worth the effort sometimes. I have one on my team who comes and goes a lot. I miss the days when they were really active, but that might come back sometime when things get better.

    Any captain who has an on-again-off-again person - please feel free to request that they get added back in or whatever you think could help them, even if it is not strictly by the book. I know we love it when members are committed and making it all happen, but some effort is better than none. If it starts to have a negative impact on the team, we reconsider. Thanks!

    @jugar Please move me to Support for a little while. I'm struggling with my new schedule and everything feels like a chore lately. I'm not stepping away, just off the scale for a bit...I'll keep up with Captain stuff. Thank you!

    @jugar I am going to be stepping down from captain for Shrinking Assets and am actually going to be leaving the challenge/group.
    Sorry @Beka3695 there are a lot of active people in the group and hopefully someone can step up to help out in my place.

    Hello Captains!

    I'm sorry the spreadsheets will be a bit late this week - I will be getting home later today and will try to get them out and ready to go by tonight or tomorrow morning. The new chat threads as well - I'll get those up tomorrow. Thanks for your patience!

    Also, will you move me back -- starting weight 187.2

    Gotcha! Now we all have to watch out - Beka's back on track :smiley:

    Do you want Wendy on support for September? I'll leave her on your team for August so her loss can count for the month.
