There seemed to be plenty of parking last Thursday.  If you park in the lot behind that isn't on carpool property you will get towed but it shouldn't be a problem to park on-site

How so?  Isn’t there a ton of parking there?
Or is it -that- busy on Thursdays?

In addition to adjacent bookings, it also seems like parking is going to be an issue on Thursdays (if you don't want towed). Maybe another good reason to move to Tuesday.

The room reservations end at 8 for the most part.  A tourney would be fine as people that commit to one aren't necessarily concerned with start/end times at least in my experience.  Also there's two machines that aren't in that room so at tourney/challenge could be run on them independently.  Options galore.

They would love to have us on Tuesday as that night is usually dead.  Believe me that was discussed during my initial negotiations with them. :)  I said we'd look into it.

Good luck doing a knockout tournament on Thursdays when the issue at hand is not being able to get in the room on Thursdays where the machines are.

i'm cool with Tuesdays.  I think bringing CarPool significantly more business on Tuesdays would give us more leverage with them, rather than being another drop in their already-overflowing Thursday bucket.  (I also prefer a half empty bar to a full one, but i'm sure there are others who feel the opposite).  -Dan R.

So we'll start a bit later in the main room.  We can probably get groups started on GoT and GB since they are on the floor.

We will convene in the area just outside the pinball room to hand out score sheets and such.

This will be a recurring problem on Thursday nights as it's one of their busier nights.  I don't want to ask them to not book that room for parties because we want them to succeed which means we have a place to play.

As I've mentioned we may want to consider (after this season of course) moving this league to Tuesday evening.  That would mean we wouldn't have to compete for space with the FXA sports league AND I could put in a permanent reservation for the pinball room.  We could still do pinball stuff on Thursdays such as knockout tournaments and such.

Anyway, feel free to email me at thebob at fspazone.org with your preference/opinion.

See you Thursday!

Bob
