[SBU Board] Fwd: New Virtual Club

[Scott Chupack]

I believe that we should advertise the games. First of all the times have
been chosen not to conflict with games in our area. For people that live in
Seattle, there are no afternoon games available until now. it's in our
players interest to give the games enough publicity so they actually run.

As for Nick's rules in May, he needs to be on his changed quite a bit on
that now and those don't apply anymore.

I also agree with Bill that they should do a 2:00 p.m. start time for the
reason he suggested.
