What Day Should Online Series Games Be Played On?
Des_D:
We will definitely be looking at the online series night for season two.
The key criteria is to be able to start early enought to avoid players needing to be up too late if the following day is a work day.
Starting at 7pm and earlier is difficult during the weekdays where players may be getting in from work / having dinner with their families.
I would welcome more views on this thread.

Saturday at 8pm works for me. Time to say goodnight to the little one, and no work the next day in case I happen to go deep.
gangly joker:
I too find Sat. nights difficult to make. That being said, I understand that you won"t be able to accoomodate everyone.
The idea of alternating the days of the events might be a good comprimise. Nothing drastic, but maybe the first tourney on a Sat. and the next on a Sun. and then alternate Sat./Sun. for the rest of the season.
Just an idea.
kinboshi:
Sundays are probably a better bet for the majority (I"d guess). Alternating between Saturday and Sunday could be a solution.
Might be worth getting a number of solutions and getting the APAT members to vote in a poll - and then the final decision could be based on this.

I have to agree with this. I know a Saturday night is not great for some, but for me it is the best and most suitable time to have a tournament like this.
Kids are in bed at 8 or around then, then I am free to play poker and no work the next day. At 7 o"clock during the week I am sometimes only just getting in from work and still have the normal things to do on the house. These tournaments are well structured and I am sure we all want to keep the present structure, so if we start at 7 or 8 on a weeknight we would not be finished till about 12. Most people are up between 6 - 7 for work the next day.
If you have a social life and go aout all the time, then staying in every other Saturday night should not pose a major problem. There will never be a solution to suit all, but for me the Saturday night seems the right choice.
