It would be nice if Arbiter would allow us to rate non-partners.
Yes, we support various levels of game ratings systems. It can be configured to allow access by anyone or selected authorized officials.

Doubtful. I would think that most of them wouldn't want to open up such access for competitive reasons.

This is where I allow the official to designate which groups get to see which other groups. If they want, they can isolate each account and maintain their availability manually between the different assignors.

Along with that, the official can prioritize each organization so that assignor A will blocked by an assignment from assignor B but not the other way...or they can make them equal so that the first to assign gets you.

No matter the answer, I'm going add a new account just for my HS stuff.

I knew you had a purpose here
In my experiences, not all supervisors are fond of this approach.

Which approach, having separate accounts for high school and college supervisors?

or

not sharing my high school schedule with my college supervisors?

Using separate email accounts for each supervisor/assignor.

Not doing 1 for each supervisor, I said 1 for my HS supervisors and 1 for my college supervisors.

You come up on the potential list....and that is only on games you can get to within the time frame allowed based on your block you put in....

Once in a Blue Moon I'll buy some french fries from there, that's it.

Other than that I'm only at the snack bar to flirt with a lady who used to scorekeep some military intramural games.

Concession stands are great places to pick up hot, single, Moms.

My best pickup line: "So after we finish our nachos, do you want to come up and see my etchings?"

I said it was my best line, I didn't say that it worked very often, or, if it ever worked.

Who pays for it? The individual chapters? Or the state?

Curious as to how many other states do this ... seems fairly anti-competitive.
