After a couple of e-mails with regard to the necessary software required to document information on the pumpkins and growers weighing at non-GPC sites for BP.com, I have received no response. Are you getting my e-mails?

Big Pumpkins dot com only tabulates the weigh-off results of registered GPC sites. That's probably why you got no response.
Are you a site organizer or a concerned grower? Which weigh-off?

The headline on the opening page says "Please register for all GPC and some non-GPC weigh-offs on-line." I think this is what prompted the question. I don't see any non-GPC sites listed on the pull down menu. I thought about the same thing myself for our local non-gpc weighoff.

I emailed em a couple weeks ago about using the software at Barnesville with no response back, maybe its not the right email addy?

I think it would be a good idea to have the results of all the weighoffs posted on BigPumpkins.

The EGVGA site is posting (almost) all European weigh-off results (regardless of affiliation) but it would be nice to have all weigh-offs posted on one site.

I agree, I just want to know about the big ones. My impression is that people come to this sight to learn about big pumpkins not affiliations. I have competed in powerlifting for years and have watched organizations tear apart an other wise great sport. Sorry didn't mean to run off with the post.

Maybe Ken has plans to list non-GPC weigh-off results?

yes, ken is opening it up to all sites, regardless of affiliation. It was posted a while back. I'm sure he's swamped with emails this time of year.

I know Indiana's independent weigh-off results are listed under the GPC page (Hamlet, IN Hensler Nursery):
http://bigpumpkins.com/WeighoffSiteList.aspx?y=2008

Maybe the non-GPC sites will be moved but at least this non-GPC weighoff is listed and uploaded.

Thanks

Yes, we are doing non-GPC sites for the first time this year. You can email me at ken@bigpumpkins.com. If you already emailed me I will get back to you.

I am a little behind right now with 67 GPC sites and a few non-GPC in the works.

Your weigh-off site has been registered and a response to your email has been sent with instructions on how to setup the software. Growers can now register on-line for the Circleville Pumpkin Show Weigh-off.

Thanks Ken. That is the news I've been waiting to hear. I am coordinating for the Circleville Pumpkin Show. I received no e-mail response. I am assuming you sent everything to Dr. Bob?. If not, my e-mail is jgerchy@columbus.rr.com.

Thanks!

At the time I was typing the last post, Ken was sending me the link to download the software. Received Ken, and thanks.
