I want to echo Adam's last paragraph. It's so nice to see someone taking the time to do a Panini cl correctly. They sure don't make it easy...and they have the exclusive license to two of my three sports, ugh.
I've had letters stick on laptops as well, and it was also the letter A for me on my last one. It was the comma on my previous laptop. My tablet autocorrecting things is the worst, especially when I type it right the first time. I can't tell you how many times it's changed of to if. One of the most annoying was when my phone changed Crosley to Crowley when I was at a car show this fall. Even though it's a brand I'm somewhat obsessed with people thought I didn't know what I was talking about.
Becky, I try to help whenever I can, some things I have no clue on...when we get to the NBA though, that I usually can help with. Although I'm more into hockey right now, the NBA is still about 1/3rd of my collection.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

Dan- I most certainly laughed and would never be upset over an incorrect pronoun used on an online forum- My dry humour is often lost when writing quickly...and CLEARLY my use of grammar, syntax and punctuation are not properly formatted in part because I type all of this through my phone and with all due respect I see it as an informal posting so I don't edit myself as I should.
Spazz- I do hope my recent contributions to some of the sets aren't anything that had to be corrected. I have been a member for almost two years but didn't interact until recently. I'd hope someone would message me if I messed up so I could apologize and learn from what I did/didn't do as this is a knowledgeable group and it can be intimidating to take those first steps.to make a list, edit teams and so on...
Enough of my. rambling as always but thank you all for the continued input, answers, tips and laughs ;),Wishing everyone a great holiday!!! a-and should anyone be in my area I'll be bartending through the duration and will gladly buy a drink I'm exchange to talk shop ;) Cheers!!! Becky Elizabethq

You all have unknowingly made my rough few days feel lighter day with this simple yet honest conversation. Thank you.

That is something I try to do, is to educate on how to do things. And I am very grateful to the members who take the time and effort to do things right, and ask for help. There are too many people who come on here, and start trying to do things before they know how the site operates. I've spent a lot of time over the last 2 weeks delaing with a souple of those newer members who were just unaware. Becky, you have me beat. I was a member for almost a year before I started asking about making some changes and interacting on the forums.
RE: Use of pronouns - It's 2019, there seems to be an increasing awareness of pronoun usage and preferred pronouns (it was actually suggected that we add our preferred pronouns to our e-mail signatures where I work). The company I work for is very proud of the diversity in the company and as an effect of that, I am highly aware of my use of pronouns. The last thing I want to do is use the wrong one. In many cases, the propoer one isn't obvious. At least with "Becky" (or "Becky Elizabeth") and your profile pic, it's more obvious. :) (Well, I am making the assumption that the pic is you.) Anyway, all I'm trying to say is that I'm sensitive to pronouns because my workplace is as well.

Ditto to Dan's first paragraph. It's always nice seeing people here ASK if they are doing it right or how to do it right before charging ahead with no regard.
Becky, nothing erroneos that I've dealt with lately was by you or you'd know it. If something is badly messed up, I make sure to let that person know they messed it up and tell them how to fix it (and usually leave it to them to fix). If it's something minor that I can fix quickly, I don't bother contacting the one that messed up.
I've also had a bit of a tough time lately, but nothing I can't handle. Especially knowing that there are people out there in much worse shape than I. I think it's the stress that's bugged me the most.

While watching football today, I put in the CL's for most of the inserts(and the accompanying parallels). Then I decided to tackle the base set, however I completely brain farted that there were variations of some of the rookies this year.
#1, I am very sorry.
#2, what can I do to fix it?

I'm putting in the IR to remove the checklist. Once it's gone, let's get it right.

I just caught up with this thread and it was like someone dropped the mic...
But Cheers Everyone -side note- if the set isn't fixed by the weekend I will gladly take what I've already put together from prior sources and confirm through Panini and Beckett sites to get it done. I do everything through my Android phone so it will be the basic text format without pics...that is how I've done all other checklists I've created on here...unless there is any objection...
