So was everybody happier with the way this ran? Information was easier to get without being spread out over 3 threads? Still need to refine some things, hopefully I'm going in the right direction. Here's what I want to know...
1. Should we stick with the 2 play only limit, or drop it down to 1 and done? Maybe 1 and done for the top 10? Nobody says you actually HAVE to play both times...
2. If I opened the tourney once I have the groupings done, meaning between 11pm and 1am PDT on Friday, would that help you Euro players out more? Would that encourage more Euro players to join? One of my reasons for only having the 12 hour window was to discourage anyone from being tempted to grind a table and only 'report' they had played twice. So far our players have been more than forthright with when and how they are playing, which leads me to believe I could maybe relax on that. The other reason though was that I'll be sleeping for those first 8 hours of play, and therefore can't answer any issues that might crop up. Would like to check the temp of how people feel about this.
3. I sent a lot of messages reminding people to sign-up, to post scores, etc. I hope I am not being a nuisance or harassing anyone. Have I found the right level, do I need to back off some, what? I'm encouraged by the turnout this time, but I don't want to be a pest.
I appreciate any and all thoughts, though I may not use them! I want you guys to look forward to the next tournament, not feel like it's a drag. Now that you have a taste for where Season Points can lead you, I think things are a little more interesting. But then that's just me
