Strike Play

[Garoa Wolff]

Fullof passion and humour, Strike! is the true story of the hardships and personal sacrifices, the friendships and camaraderie these extraordinary young people experienced as they stood up for what they believed in.

As their understanding of the suffering under apartheid in South Africa and the politics within their own Government deepened, they began a journey that would change their lives, and Ireland, forever.

STRIKE! was created in a collaboration between The TESA Collective, a publisher of games about changing the world, and Jobs with Justice, a leading labor rights organization. It is a game by, for, and about the labor movement.

And although each player takes on a unique character, players will also have to recruit more workers from other industries across the city - from the teachers to the steelworkers - to grow their rebellion and take powerful actions.

"STRIKE! is a great intro to labor organizing. The game presents mechanics that really put the theme forward and give you the feeling of urgency that the labor movement has. I loved the difficulty levels that can be added to make the game harder for those who want to punch it up a notch. The game plays smoothly and has no obvious flaws in the mechanic. I would recommend this to everyone for great play and for great theme."

The Google Play strike removal programme allows certain developers who have had a suspension action taken against their app to take a training course and assessment related to the policy that their app violated, and potentially have the strike count against their account's standing waived.

We know that many developers work hard to create and distribute their apps with good intentions, and may sometimes unknowingly violate policies. The aim of the programme is to help educate eligible developers, and to assess and increase their understanding of policy compliance.

If you have a strike against your account and are eligible, you will receive an email to indicate that you can optionally participate in the Google Play strike removal programme to potentially have your strike count waived. Only the strike for which you received an email is eligible to be waived. Also, if you have any additional suspensions within 24 hours of your eligible strike, successfully completing the training course and assessment may waive the strike count on those apps too.

If you are eligible and choose to participate in the programme, you will be directed to a training course relating to the policy that your app violated. As part of the course, you will be assessed on your understanding of the policy. You have three attempts to pass the assessment. You must complete the assessment before the expiry date included in the notification email.

Successfully completing this training course and passing the assessment will result in your app's strike count being waived (as long as your developer account is otherwise in good standing and is not terminated). It may take up to 48 hours for the strike count to be waived.

Note: Although taking this training course and assessment will reduce the possibility of your account being terminated in the future, you still need to follow the steps in the original enforcement email you received if you believe that the decision may have been in error.

No. Your progress will be saved if you exit the training course and assessment before completing them. However, you must complete the assessment before the expiry date included in the notification email you received.

In this case, you will still be able to complete the training course and assessment. However, it will have no effect on the status of your app because you were not invited to participate in the Strike Removal programme.

Yes. Anyone who can access the Google Play Developer account (whether the access level is account owner, admin or user) can complete the training course and assessment to potentially have the account's strike count waived.

As a result of the strike, a total of 948 games were canceled, and MLB became the first-ever major American professional sports league to lose an entire postseason due to a labor dispute. Due to the strike, both the 1994 and 1995 seasons were not played to a complete 162 games; the strike began after the teams had played at least 113 games in 1994. Each team played a total of 144 games in 1995.

In response to a worsening financial situation in baseball, the owners of Major League Baseball teams collectively proposed a salary cap to their players.[2][3] Ownership claimed that small-market clubs would fall by the wayside unless teams agreed to share local broadcasting revenues (to increase equity among the teams) and enact a salary cap, a proposal that the players adamantly opposed. On January 18, 1994, the owners approved a new revenue-sharing plan keyed to a salary cap, which required the players' approval.[4][5] The following day, the owners amended the Major League agreement by giving complete power to the commissioner on labor negotiations.

The dispute was played out with a backdrop of years of hostility and mistrust between the two sides. What arguably stood in the way of a compromise settlement was the absence of an official commissioner ever since the owners forced Fay Vincent to resign in September 1992. Vincent said the owners had colluded in the signing of free agents, which led to "a $280 million theft" by Bud Selig and Jerry Reinsdorf, which "polluted labor relations in baseball" and left Donald Fehr, executive director of the Major League Baseball Players Association, with "no trust in Selig."[6] On February 11, 1994, the owners greatly reduced the commissioner's power to act in "the best interests of baseball."[7]

Owner representative Richard Ravitch officially unveiled the ownership proposal on June 14, 1994.[8] The proposal would guarantee a record $1 billion in salary and benefits.[9] But the ownership proposal also would have forced clubs to fit their payrolls into a more evenly based structure. Salary arbitration would have been eliminated, free agency would begin after four years rather than six, and owners would have retained the right to keep a four- or five-year player by matching his best offer.[10] Owners claimed that their proposal would raise average salaries from $1.2 million in 1994 to $2.6 million by 2001.[9]

On July 13, 1994, Fehr said if serious negotiations between the players and the owners did not begin soon, the players could go out on strike in September of that year, threatening the postseason. On December 31, 1993, Major League Baseball's collective bargaining agreement ran out with no new agreement yet signed.[11]

On July 28, the Players Association executive board set August 12, 1994, as a strike date.[13] When that day came, the players went ahead with their threat to walk off the job.[14] The last games of that baseball season were played on August 11, 1994.

On August 31, three-and-a-half hours of negotiations with federal mediators produced no progress in the strike, and no further talks were scheduled as the strike went into its 4th week. According to then-acting commissioner Bud Selig, September 9 was the tentative deadline for canceling the rest of the season if no agreement was reached between the owners and players. The MLBPA offered a counterproposal to ownership on September 8 calling for a two-percent tax on the 16 franchises with the highest payrolls to be divided among the other 12 clubs. Teams in both leagues would share 25% of all gate receipts under the MLBPA's plan. The owners responded by claiming that the measures wouldn't meet the cost.

The rest of the season, including the World Series, was called off by Selig on September 14.[15] Selig acknowledged that the strike had torn an irreparable hole in the game's fabric.[16] The move to cancel the rest of the season meant the loss of $580 million in ownership revenue and $230 million in player salaries. In 1994, the average MLB salary was an estimated $1.2 million.

Chicago White Sox star Frank Thomas, who wound up winning the American League's Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award for the second year in a row in 1994,[20] said "I've had a career year, but I'm not going to finish it."[21] Tony Gwynn had a chance to be the first to finish a season over .400 since Ted Williams, as he was batting .394 at the time of the strike. The strike also cost Matt Williams of the San Francisco Giants a chance to beat Roger Maris' single season home run record. When the strike forced the cancellation of the remaining 47 games of the season, Williams had already hit 43 home runs, on pace to match Maris' single season record of 61 home runs.[22] Cleveland Indians second baseman Carlos Baerga was unable to extend his record two-year streak of 20 home runs, 200 hits, and 100 RBI by a second baseman because of the strike. Seattle Mariners star Ken Griffey Jr., who led the American League with 40 home runs at the time of the strike, summed it up by saying, "We picked a bad season to have a good year."[23] Kevin Mitchell of the Cincinnati Reds, Julio Franco of the Chicago White Sox, and Shane Mack of the Minnesota Twins opted during the strike to play in Japan in 1995.
