And this is my first post... So it leaves me wondering how I will get smacked-down when I leave some questions of my own.

Good luck, Lpbreeze. I feel for you, and I wish I could answer your questions, but I am a novice official myself.

Maybe someone friendly will come along that can actually give you some directions instead of telling you to buy a map.

If you go to college and you expect the professor to answer all your questions, maybe college is not for you. All the questions are great but they are easily found in the rulebook and the answers frankly have many facites to them. Even if you want directions you have to find the best way that works for you.

Peace

Neither will answering all the questions (which would be better served one at a time) in this thread. It is hard enough to read and then go back and answer.

Willpage, have you ever heard the saying, "Give a man a fish...?" The OP was asking for a fish and some others just gave him a quick fishing lesson. This site isn't a substitute for reading the rule book. Someone really could have been smart and gave him the rule - just the rule - for every question he had. If you take time to read some threads, questions are asked and answered all the time. But the OP clearly hasn't read the rule book. If he/she has...yeah, good luck.

Amen. You don't learn a thing by reading supplied answers. Or having someone supply you with an exam and it's answers also. You learn by looking up the answers. It's impossible to know the rules without putting some work into it. And the answers to all of the questions in the original post are available with a little work. If you don't have an answer after looking in the rule book, then you should be asking questions.
