Phil, when we got there yesterday after you had been there in the morning, everything was turned off. The only thing I noticed were the trees on the ledge at the port, and I think we all realize we shouldn’t set things there and have discussed that enough for
now. <br>
<br>
We have come to the club many times when things were left on. Nicholas and I will put together a simple shut down list for the HO side. Not sure if O has or needs anything like that.
<br>
<br>
I think your assessment of the reasoning behind zeroing out the door lock is correct Phil. It is a way to force all four numbers to be changed when locking the door.

> I was at the club until from 9-12 AM yesterday and came back about 3 or so (apologies to the HO folks for the trees in the ledge 🙄). When I left at noon, I am 99% sure the lights were off, though I knew I would be back in an hour or two so there is a small
probability I left them on. I may have just spun all 4 tumblers because I was coming back later. When I got back there were folks there on the HO side if it was me who left the lights on then the HO layout had been on a while as I definitely did not turn
it on (working on the O scenery). That means it was left on on Saturday or Friday. Quite frankly, as I was not using the HO layout I never thought of seeing if it was on. A suggestion for both sides that we wire a light on the aisle by the north door that
is visible and is wired off the mains power to each layout so it is easy to see if it is left on. After the fair discussion.

a number where only one tumbler was moved one number is foolish). The only reason to set it to 0000 is to assure it is always randomized by us. I agree it is a good idea as it forces the randomization.
