Certainly other tourneys can be set up on different days. I would, however, like to see one set night of the week for weekly tournaments. Perhaps a different format (and stakes) could be done for a Friday or Saturday.

I'm thinking alot of people go out on Friday& Saturday nights. What about A second tourney on Saturday or Sunday, late afternoon like 2, 3 , or 4 o'clock central.

Yea weekend afternoons are best for me, I cant make it most weekend nights or weekday nights.

[smoore]

Sweet! Come gunnin' for me this week boys, I love it.

Sounds great, thanks chipper. I like the idea of a weekly tournament rather than monthly. If weekly is too often for everyone, I'd suggest every other week.

If weekly is too often for everyone, I'd suggest every other week.

Even if you can't make every tournament, play as often as you care to. Granted, not every one will be able to play every week.

Only time it would matter is if there were an on-going leaderboard. We should have a stipulation that your bottom 2-3 weeks could be thrown out and the rest of the weeks averaged. This would allow you to miss a few weeks without worrying about leaderboard status.

I'll be there, thanks Chipper. Hopefully the Canucks can finish better than 12th/13th...
