Agreed.

There are TONNES of games to do around here. Not getting that one Varsity game a year or the Juvenile semi doesn't bother me.

That's a good way to handle it. However, if you were to ever meet my assignor... well... nepitism runs high. Don't get me wrong - I benefit form it at times - the mood seems to change all the time. In fact, I even dual with a nearby board to get away from the poop that is here.

Jmo, but I think that any reasonable and competent assignor should know his officials and also know who to put together- or keep apart- to get the best game results. The assignor should also try to find out why an official doesn't want to work with another official. If it's just a personality or philosophical clash between two officials, then it's really no biggie for the assignor. Just try to keep 'em away from each other- unless you happen to get stuck. If one of the officials is acting like the clown mentioned above in this thread, then the assignor should know about that too- and he should also do something about it when he does find out. You don't want people like that representing your association or driving good officials away. Jmo.
