Survey Results & Outcomes
Due to the recent lack of participation in the Thursday blitz events a survey was taken to see how people feel about it. The two categories with the most votes were 1. No Interest, 2. Prefer Another Day. Originally Thursday was chosen, because that is the night the club met in person. Since it is an open tournament we used to get some participation from the West TN players. Memphis has subsequently moved their Wednesday online event to Thursday's, which will conflict for those players. Having our blitz event every Thursday on top of our Team Battles and Monthly Swiss might also be a bit overkill, and inadvertently makes it less special. Plus, if it's not over the board, many folks probably aren't all that enthusiastic about playing the same people every week.
Taking all this into consideration, it's been decided to postpone the weekly blitz for the time being. It might come back to another day after the holidays, or may be replaced with some random special events. One suggestion was to organize more team events where we play other groups/clubs, etc. If you have any suggestions please email them to: [email protected]
