No offense, but I think you're missing the point. For consistency's sake, this board uses Softball nomenclature for their runners - R1 for the lead, R2 after that etc. Your posts are going to be more easily followed and responded to if you can also follow the same nomenclature. (btw - the exact opposite is true over on the baseball board - but their reaction to someone using softball nomenclature on that board is a LOT more negative and vitriol-filled than what you got here).

If you use the wrong shorthand, some of your responses will use "your" shorthand, and others will use softball shorthand, and confusion and chaos will set in. We've all seen it - a lot. This is why you're being asked to use typical softball shorthand.
