What Day Should Online Series Games Be Played On?

When I say to the wife on a Saturday night I plan to sit down and play poker on the internet all night the look she shoots me could stop a Rhino in full charge. Having said that I do occasionally get the chance to dip into the online series and enjoy the games a lot.
I agree with Jon"s comments about the games needing to be on a Friday or Saturday to allow the maximum possible number of APAt member to play because the vast majority hold down regular jobs and this enables them to compete for the title.
I also think you have to consider those who work weekends and those who can"t commit to play enough tournaments to compete for the season championship. What I would like to see is a regular monthly tournament held on a rotating week day that offers an APAt season title for variety of different poker formats, quick example;
So 1st Monday in Jan APAt Season 2, 7 card stud championship
1st Tuesday in Feb Season 2 Omaha championship
1st Wednesday in March Season 2 Limit Hold'em championship
1st Thursday in April Season 2 Omaha Hi/Lo championship
1st Friday in May Season 2 Pot Limit Hold'em
The season title could become "The main event" with this other titles enabling others to compete in there favourite formats.

I saw you mention this elsewhere Kevin and think this idea has lots of potential. Will definitely be adding this to the development list for season two.

Please avoid Sundays, there is far too many other poker events going on Sunday. Saturdays are working well

No one is making a decision at the moment - we"re just putting together reasons and suggestions that can then be looked at in more detail and hopefully formalised and put to the members as a vote (and then a decision made with this information in hand).
Saturdays are working well for many - but might not be working well for others. Personally, I don"t mind. I have no social life...

We may have to use a random draw to reach the decision :D

Yep, with most people here, very difficult to get a good night for everybody. Think it is important that it alternates weeks. Perhaps, alternating weeks and nights would be good.
Ascot:
Always out on Saturdays - why not alternate with Sundays - maybe with a 4pm kick off? Another forum ran a $1000 added tournament for members last sunday at 4pm and it was well supported.
