What's up with Adam Guasch-Melendez?  The last time that he posted on this forum was on Aug. 8th of last year.  He also hasn't updated his website at all in 2015!  ln contrast, there were about a dozen updates in each of 2013 and '14!

l've sent him at least two email messages and a private message with no responses!  Hope that nothing has happened to him.

I really hope you're not holding an athlete's money just because the mark hasn't been posted to some website.

lf it were just up to me, l'd have sent the bonus check to her back when but the Claw has a board of Trustees that expects me to follow their rules.  "Don't bite the hand that feeds you" as the sayin' goes! 

Apparently, l'm more concerned about this than Adam.  Certainly more than Kate Burton who hasn't once questioned the delay!!

Adam, this isn't just some idle time nit-picking on my part.  l need to see those new records posted so that l know that Kate Burton's record sheaf toss is considered legit!   The Claw's Trustees require that a record is posted before the bonus for that record can be dispersed.  l'm also going to need to know what the present records are so that if one is broken at this summer's Claw, l'll be able to start the bonus process.  Additionally, l'll also need to know the present records so that l can update our ranking page after this year's Claw.

The check that Kate has been patiently been awaiting is worth $900!!

Actually I understand your pain Wally but it's a bit presumptive of you to expect AGM to jump and update for ya. It is a noble project Adam does but it's labor of love/ he does stuff w/ the masa board,has his own job,life. He's not getting any swag for his efforts(but it's all we have). Can't believe the board wouldn't take your word. I mean were a fringe strength sport with no governing body and trust the results of ADS and athletes who aren't getting rich. Just sayin!(let the hating begin)

No hate.
This is 100% right.

As much as Adam has been very conscientious in his efforts at the end of the day he's a guy running a website out of the goodness of his heart; it's no more official than an Outlander fan fiction blog aside from the fact that we as athletes and AD's recognize it as such.

Yup, the point I tried to make back in March ^^. 

I dunno who on the Claw board made that rule, but they apparently don't understand what that website actually is.  AGM could quit doing that at any point with no explanation, and maybe he has, so to rely on that is just plain silly.

Is this something that someone else can lend a hand? I can do that.

You have to stop doing that Juli, if it worked we'd all be doing it.

Right you are!  But l can understand their thinking.  lf l was going to be handing out $1000 for a North American record ($500 for a national record, $250 for a Class A record, or $250 for a Master's record), they needed some sort of assurance that it truly was a record!!  Adam's list was the only game in town!

Without Adam's list, there would be no way to verify a new record and competitors at the Claw would be looking at one less benefit. l'd hate to see that go away 'cuz l believe good performances should be rewarded!

Juli I don't see why not; I expect someone could copy and paste the data on AGM's site and go from there.

Masters records are still up on http://www.scottishmasters.org/

Canadian records are on www.csaf.ca

Don't know if there's a Scottish site that keeps records, SHGA.co.uk doesn't look like it.

l appreciate the thought, Craig, but l'm not sure if that solves my problem.  Maybe, l'll just have to drop the rewards for new records.  l'd hate to have to do that but it does free up over $3400 from my budget!

For now, l've decided to put this to bed.  l dropped Kate Burton's bonus check in yesterday's mail!  Bonus checks will still be an added benefit at this year's Claw but if there's no record list available, where records can be confirmed, l'm just going to drop them from next year's budget!

My having sat on Kate's check may have worked out for the best.  She is presently expecting a young 'un so the $$$ should come in handy!
