Next TPFI Proposal

GeoffM · #1 03-08-05, 01:14 PM

OK, well the last 2 were on the last Sunday of the month. I still say, despite it being Easter (how many of the participants are Catholic anyway?), we should still run it. I propose maybe just a later start time, like say 8 or 9 ET. I'd be fine with that, or even 10ET. These things don't run longer than what, maybe 2 hours? Anyway, any thoughts? I want to play in 1, so if this were the time of the next one, I'd surely be home Sunday nights and I have Monday off so I'd be drunk and easy money to boot

This works for me. What do other people think?

GeoffM · #3 03-08-05, 01:23 PM

Just so everyone knows, I'll be drinking Hill's that weekend, a form of absynthe, so indeed, Geoff will be pretty messed up, and if your lucky a riot on the chat box.

Easter Sunday is fine with me... just up to everyone else.

i wouldn't be able to do it -- after the family obligations it's the girlfriend obligations.

PShabi · #6 03-08-05, 02:28 PM

I thought we started earlier last time for the Europeans? 8 or 9 ET is late over there.

Also, you don't have to be Catholic to celbrate Easter you blithering idiot.

Tony Cheval · #7 03-08-05, 05:10 PM

I have no plans for Easter, so I'm good with whatever.

nutbag · #8 03-08-05, 08:36 PM

4-5 would be better for me, because of the time difference(I can play in the morning before starting work at noon)

there is NO WAY i can play poker on easter. If you all have it on Easter - i will think of some creative bounty to put up for grabs to keep the tradition going.

No poker on Easter....
And why are we listening to the trashtalker who hasn't played in one yet????
Yes, I am looking in your direction Geoff!

TP, a little advice... you are looking for a decent turnout, you haven't broken 20 players yet... playing on a major holiday, around Easter dinner time is not going to help.... but it's your call.

I agree.... I could make it, but I think we need to pick a different time. Is that whole weekend shot for most people? Should we have a tourney during the week for a change? Maybe the previous Thursday - the 24th? I realize this means it would be an evening one and would kill the European crowd, but I don't think any of them played last time anyway...

drewjax · #12 03-09-05, 08:09 AM

I would vote to have it after Easter weekend altogether. What about a friday night? I play in a live game on Sat. nights, as I am sure some others do as well. Do any of you play regularly on friday nights? I know some of you have regular hot dates with alcohol on fridays, but.......
Maybe 7et or so? That way the Euros could possible still play. Just a thought.

GeoffM · #13 03-09-05, 08:23 AM

ChipFish, I am a DrinkFish, 3 on Sundays I'm still waking up or in some cases still drunk.

Friday night? Those are even worse

Saturday afternoon? I don't know, maybe around 4ish or so. Be cool to watch NCAA and play poker at the same time.

bigjohnstud2o · #15 03-11-05, 04:21 AM

like liquid weed!

GeoffM · #16 03-11-05, 08:21 AM

No, I smoke my share of dope too.

Actually, I'm buying a bottle of Hill's on Easter weekend. 90 bucks for a 26er, 70% alcohol and has many absynthe qualities to it. I'll be hopping like the Easter Bunny all weekend
