The ideal situation would be to set tournies in advance if you know you want to host at a certain date and time. Some of us don't always know when we will be on to host (especially ME right now...lol). The is set up so that we can set tourneys in advance and set them on demand. That's how we should be hosting, set the tourney in advance if you know you will be on and want to host on a certain date and time, otherwise, set them up as you are available and have players to host.

Thanks,

: I would like to make a few suggestions, if I may, about setting definate tournament times. Now that we are so lucky to have a number of people to recently join the td position,(and doing a super job I might add), it may be more advantageous for this format. To have them posted 24 hrs in advance and open them for registeration no later than 30 mins prior to the scheduled start of the tournament. This giving ample time to clear our schedules , if possible, finding a team partner, making sure of arriving in a timely manner not to delay the start of the games. Also a consideration of spaming in yahoo messenger maybe another possibility to notify and remind league members of an up coming tournament witnin the next 30 mins...therefore any one with the availabilty of yahoo messenger will be alerted. Other league members that have the ability to download yahoo messenger for this purpose may consider this option. One more suggestion and ill get off my soapbox here, with team tournaments an earlier start consideration may be warranted,10:00pm est, would be a good time for this due to the fact it takes longer to pair up, start and join teams than it does to play the game, hence the set tournament times. All of this preparation would need to be completed by the time the games begin. I know that there are tds that would love to participate more often in the tournaments and this might be the answer for them also... ok I am stepping off now...lol...just a few ideas thank you for reading them..........tc gl all members in the games .........and hugsss...Abby p.s. Many thanks to all of the td staff for their hard work at making this league a better place to meet, play, socialize, and have fun.........
