Then do the tourny on a Sunday. If Saturadays arent available.
I've been told that Sunday is almost always a day that people can't make or take "off" from gaming to spend time with friends, family, GF's, wives, whatever.
If people can do Sundays,
definitely let me know. I'd love for it to become a viable option for bigger events... but running an event is to the exclusion of everything else on a Sunday (which is significant sometimes) due to the fact that all of our events are in the afternoon and we close at 7:00pm. It's difficult but doable... This is different than a Saturday where we start the Magic stuff at 7:00pm. The Warhammer dudes *can* be done and the store transformed for the card guys to start at 7:00. This allows us to run a 40k event in ADDITION to our normal stuff, not to the exclusion of it, you know?
It just boils down to too many events, too little time, and not enough space. (Which we are working on, indirectly)
I promise, I'd love to run Warhammer events often, especially on Sunday... but juggling it, burn out, and the other games we support is a bit more difficult than it seems.
If the community demands a 1v1 and a 2v2 tourney, we will certainly give it to them.
Tell me more about this Gladiator thing, please.
