It may be cultural, but I find this “every time you post you have to drink a shot” to be inappropriate suppression of discussion. It does not add to the debate in anyway, but serves to shut down participation in the topic. I should be grateful if we were able to discuss what is clearly an emotionally charged topic focusing on the issues and concerns without resorting to this sort of rhetorical technique.

Announcing a plan to re-bid at least 18 months and maybe more like 24 months ahead of a re-bid beginning suggests to me that the exercise of the second extension would only happen if the re-bid didn't result in viable offers - including any other offers from the incumbent possibly bidding against themselves. Lot of assumptions in here. "Suggests to me" doesn't mean "necessarily follows". I think we both have to drink. ☕️☕️ No - I don't think so. > "Every time you post you have to drink a shot.

The current contract was for 2 years with the possibility of 2 2year extensions for a possible total of 6 years. The contract started 1 Jan 2018 making the initial end date 31 Dec 2019. From what Sarah’s note said, the IAB and RSOC decided to exercise the first extension option which if accepted would place the contract end at 31 Dec 2021 (2.5 years from now). The IAB RSOC at the same time is indicated that they would never exercise the second extension, instead indicating they would put the RSE back out for a new contract with an award date by 1Jan 2022. Did I miss anything or does Sarah’s note allow for a different set of conclusions?
