I've been experimenting with different calligraphy inks and I'm looking for a new one to try. I've heard that some inks bleed too much on certain paper types, so I'd like to know what inks people have had success with. Specifically, I'm looking for an ink that works well with a dip pen and has a high level of lightfastness.Any recommendations would be appreciated.

The first time I watched a minor league game, I became puzzled when a player made contact that clearly advanced a base and wasn’t recorded as a sacrifice. For years, I assumed any out with baserunning progress counted as a sac. Only last week did I see an official definition explaining why contact without force play doesn’t qualify. The realization clarified longstanding confusion between fielder error and actual base advancement play calls. After reviewing rule books and multiple video examples where plays clearly don’t meet criteria, it becomes apparent how easily assumptions form in real-time watching. Have other users experienced similar early misinterpretations of play terminology

For most of my watching career I kept telling friends that a sacrifice fly counted as an official at‑bat. It was never really tested in conversation, I just assumed that because the batter does not get a hit it must be an at‑bat. Only when a stats‑savvy coworker pointed out the official scoring rule did I realize I had been wrong. The rule actually says a sacrifice fly does not count as an at‑bat, which is why players’ averages don’t dip after a deep fly that scores a runner. I feel a bit embarrassed because I’d used that claim in multiple debates about a player’s batting average. Turns out I was the one with the misunderstanding. Any other common myths that have stuck with you?
