Hi,

As you may have noticed the tournament schedule has been changed.  If you have any feedback please let me know in this thread!

And, because I have to post a tournament:

Thanks,

Looks good so far,

I like the MQM *grins happily*. Nice to see some new games coming onto the schedule. And some old favourites beefed up. So fine by me, got summat to play most days.

A couple of points...
1) Hansels, I think it should be 24 hours, the missus I know won't be happy.
2) Some of the entry fees might put people off.

Cheers
Charlie

but will the same tourneys be held? I only play in the 3 Belles tourneys that we have weekly, one on Thursday night, the big one on Friday, and then one on Saturday morning.

Will that same happen? or will there only be one now every week?

OOOHHH NOO!

Sprouty? Now I'm sad =(

I just checked a few on the tourney list, and there seems to be just one tourney a week for a few on the list?

Is this gonna change?

Wow, now you can all really tell I don't like change ehh? LoL

I don't mind change BUT I don't think this is a change for the better.  Whatever happened to "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"????

Yeah, sorry about that, had little icons everywhere, excel doesn't like em so I got rid of them, would have been useful to see I admit.

I think it looks great.  Remember guys, the grab hosted tournaments get changed again after a while.  We will all see some of our favorites changed, taken away, or added with each change.  If you don't like this round, make your suggestions and wait for the next group to come.  Here's a thought.  Can you try giving us a rough time frame for how long the current schedule will last until the next revision Sprouty?  Mixing it up now and then is important so we all get a chance for our favorite games to be played.  For those that have lost your favorites, now is the time to try something new.  You may like it.  If not, put in your requests for the next round.

im gonna refrain from comment about the new schedule until after its been there for the week.

i am adverse to change and it all just looks wrong from where i stand now. but I know its a case of getting used to it, and seeing how it works.....

so give me a week or 2 and ill let you know if i like it?

Change is good for us. If we stay in the same rut all the time we become stagnant. We all know how stagnant water can stink. LOL

I like the new changes. The pots are much bigger and the entry fee increases are a okay with me. I just love making friends here and having fun on the games.

I agree, Shelly, we can get in a rut   I don't mind the changes or the entry fees, and appreciate the opportunity to play some different games in the grab-hosted tourneys! I always wondered why the fees were all even numbers, and figured it was because of division issues.  So thanks for that change too:-)

They say 'change is as good as a holiday'...

Change is good... but limiting the hours one can play a tourney is not good at all...

This looks like the tourneys are only hosted for USA and Canadian times - what about the rest of us [UK, Europe, Australia, NZ, South AFrica, etc?]  that are 12hrs or less ahead??  Looking at 80% of the new tourney times etc.. i will miss almost every tourney and if I do happen to join a tourney whist its in progress...i will have 1hr to play it... either that, or join a tourney that starts 11pm or later MY time ..

Hi,

I tried to include tournaments for every time bracket - if it's lacking catnip please let me know and I'll do my best to correct it.

Ideally, Grab time, when can you participate in tournaments?

Thanks,

Michael
