That looks like a really good solution to the undermanned/odd man tourneys. JDMAN, are you taking notes, could we could adopt that formula, too?

Thanks Jim,
We were trying to plan another $300 added DYP/BYP this fall but I don't think its gonna workout (to many conflicting weekends). Hopefully we'll have another one before the first of March. We were talking about setting up something maybe a few weeks after KY Superbowl.

Ron Olson will be at the Uptowner on Tuesday (10-25-05). Like last time, we'll have a tourney if we get enough people.

Ron Olsen eh? Good player. Too bad such short notice, I bet I could get some folks to play on one such special occasion. Tell you what, I am planning on starting something like a travelling league or mob or whatever to try and feed the game fuel to help build up the midwest so we can take over the nation and then on to the foos world. Well we can try anyway. I figure we start something like that and then in turn we will draw some players into our house so we can expand again you see. My question was hoping to get an answer, what kind of tables you got there?? because we are pretty spoiled these days with four new non-valley surface (new slick) at Stratford kept up for 3 nights per week of action!! Come check it out for yourself. We are planning on having a monthly DYP on a weekend day where we will have open tables for a set fee. VIFA members will get a discount. Hope we can put something together, I'm getting more ideas as I write this so please respond with anything that might help make our places more exciting. BTW you should see the hot waitresses and bartenders we have. I leave it at that.

Jim,
We have a 30th anniversary gray marble and 2 blondes. We've about wore our gray marble out. One of our blondes is pretty decent and the other needs some work. We don't know when it will be possible to get new tables from the vendor. I don't see it happening in the near future. I wish I could say that I'd be down with a car full, but its hard to get everyone together at once. Its hard enough having a tourney of our own these days. I'll be down in the near future, however. I've been meaning to make it for a while. St. Louis players have always came up and supported our tournies and its far past our turn to return the favor.
