I think it would help me in the future if people explicitly state their constraints when we need to make changes. With previous emails, the cutoff seemed more like a question to the group rather than a requirement. I would not have been surprised by the rest of this exchange under those conditions. "Say what you need" seems like a good way to communicate better.--TroyOn Wed, Feb 5, 2025, 6:19 PM David Resnick <lndresnick hotmail com> wrote:We can all control what we do. 5 was not the cut off for the group to meet. It was my cut off to host and participate.

Subject: Re: [tg] [Explode-the-tape] On for C4 at Alex'sI do not appreciate how arbitrary the cutoff time felt in this decision. I, for one, can't guarantee to respond by the end of the normal work day. I feel like 6 p.m. would have been an equally good time as a cutoff and would still probably allow people to make different evening plans if they wanted to. I don't appreciate the implication that nothing works when I felt like people were making a pretty good effort to adjust plans the day of the event. In my opinion, I would have assumed that Kathy was still a yes for dancing at David's because it is easy to park there. Everyone else had responded via email or discord by 5 p.m. If we need more formality in making changes on Wednesday, fine, maybe we should talk about that. Currently I'm pretty angry.

I'm switching myself to "no" and not hosting tonight.
I wish we had a better way communicate.

Local Andy’s asleep, but I’ll ask him when he wakes up.
In for carpool.
If no van, can somebody get Banandy at Alewife? Judy, can we do it if no one outbound volunteers?
