# | Buzz Williams On Cassell Coliseum Atmosphere and the Hokies' February Schedule Our in-state rivalry game was scheduled while our students were on break. I don't see that flying for the NC schools. And I don't think I'd characterize it as whining when it seems like he is trying to point out something that is seriously flawed in his belief. Finishing last means you won't get the best dates & timeslots, but there should always be a level playing field. You have to fight for that in the ACC sometimes.

# | Buzz Williams On Cassell Coliseum Atmosphere and the Hokies' February Schedule This is similar to complaining about touch fouls when the game is 6-6. You are looking to gain an advantage/favorable call later when it really matters. This year it makes no difference Tech is a .500 team and no chance of meaningful postseason play. But next year or the year after, Tech will be fighting for an NCAA bid and needs a more favorable home Feb schedule to close out on.

# | Buzz Williams On Cassell Coliseum Atmosphere and the Hokies' February Schedule This sort of reminds me of the days when Seth would bemoan our NCAA snubs and have to settle with the NIT. But then we would end up turning in poor performances in the NIT. Kind of proves the NCAA's point when we can't even makes any waves in the NIT. So I agree with you, Beamer's Auto Garage, that we need to be an attractive product in order to complain about our scheduling.

# | Buzz Williams On Cassell Coliseum Atmosphere and the Hokies' February Schedule He's right though...Id bet NO team plays 8 road games and 4 home games in any 12 game stretch. Only us and Cuse had 3 home ACC games while students were on break

# | Inspired Performance From Seth Allen Propels Hokies To 83-73 Victory Over Florida State We sat next to the guy whose two sons were the kids helping with the timeouts. They talked about them in the postgame and (I think) took the credit for the victory (and we agree). So your'e off the hook, Kville Hokies.

# | Inspired Performance From Seth Allen Propels Hokies To 83-73 Victory Over Florida State Did not watch, and we won. Now I am afraid to watch next game. But I want to watch. Arggghhh. I have watched us win. It is not me. It is not me. Can anyone else take credit and take the pressure off so I can watch?
I am just glad you got rid of PayPal, as I have never participated, And would have given before if I did not have to do that or write a check.
From my personal experience (just today) when signing up the system tells you that it will automatically bill you annually the full amount each anniversary date, unless you notify the provided email address to cease future billing.
Thanks for the response. Again I'd like to ask how the payments work. I clicked the link and it wants my CC info. Am I charged yearly, monthly, daily? Will the payment be renewed automatically, and can we at least get an email saying "Hey! We're billing you again"
Also is there a start date that everyone needs to sign up by and will pay at the same time, or do we just renew every anniversary of signing up?

# | Inspired Performance From Seth Allen Propels Hokies To 83-73 Victory Over Florida State Cake? Imagine their record if the victory achieved pie?
hmmm.
God DAMMIT, Joe. You've stolen my chance to be the inaugural member of The Key Player's Club. Now I have to live with the ignominy of forever having HOAT's sloppy seconds.
Oh well. I'm still getting off cheaper than I was on PayPal, and I get a keychain.
Hey Joe.
First, I wanna say that I'm KPC member lucky number 7!!
Second, I want to thank you for building an awesome website and community for all things VT. I really appreciate that your goal is to keep the site free. I'm glad that I can contribute to keeping it running so that others may have the opportunity to take in the awesomeness that is TKP.
Third, what happens when my CC expires? Will I have to put in new CC info every year that I renew a membership?
Got an email today saying "our records show you placed a deposit" with no seating assignments.
UT fans who placed their orders at the same time got their seating assignments on Feb1.
The way these things roll out is controlled by the individual schools. C'mon hokie club!
These are all really good questions. I appreciate the feedback!
Payments are processed via Stripe. It's what TKP's online store has used for years. Also, no credit card info is stored on TKP's servers.
For those that want to give via PayPal at a variable amount, it can still be done. (With PayPal it's as simple as initiating a transfer to joe thekeyplay [dot] com. That's just how PayPal works.) Although it's nothing I'll mention on TKP, and more or less an undocumented feature. However, the only way to get the keychain bottle opener and other perks of The Key Players Club is to join via TKP.
I realize this will irritate some folks, but maintaining the gold star database was a pain in the butt because PayPal wasn't integrated with TKP. PayPal's reporting tools suck and I wanted to bring everything in-house.
My hope is a focused marketing strategy will appeal to more of the community and readers.
What about them?
ecu
Thanks. I realized I could click the link after I posted that. Couple of questions. How does the payments work? I'm strongly against having automatic payments made from my CC, bank account, etc., because I will forget about it. I'd like to have the autonomy to pay once a year like I currently do, but not jump through the hoops of canceling a subscription if I chose.
If I read correctly you're getting rid of PayPal. Through what avenue will I be providing my financial information?
You've responded positively in the past when the idea of a subscription based website would hurt students/ broke folks. Will getting rid of the gold star/ pay what you can aspect hurt the website. If someone can give $10-$20 but not $84. Will that result in a net loss, and will you keep that option open?

# | Buzz Williams On Cassell Coliseum Atmosphere and the Hokies' February Schedule What do you expect when you are the bottom for so long. You want a better schedule then you have to win and have a venue that looks good in tv. Love Buzz and we will get there sooner than later
I actually didn't meant for that part of it to go live before I wrote a front-page post, but it's for The Key Players Club. All the relevant information is on the page itself: http://www.thekeyplay.com/the-key-players-club. It's what I've been working on for the last 5 months.
Maybe I'm reaching but "Win a Battle" and the celebratory cake, coupled with Rev. Zeke's (KipTJam) "interesting news" could be related in some way.... The part about Buzz not wanting to cry and Barber saying Buzz was "vague" about the reasoning
