New 10am timeslot instead of 11 or 9pm from next promotion
As the late timeslots are no longer being filled whilst the 3 and 7 pm slots fill early, I will be lobbying to get rid of the 9pm or 11pm in exchange for a new 10am slot.
Everyone agree?

I'm not sure what has changed as the chips and level timer are the same as it has always been (I think?)
But we are definitely taking longer for the finish. Maybe only 10 mins or so longer on average but it is noticeable.

Maybe people are playing tighter and tighter.
I support the 10 am time slot lobby

I'm a little biased since 11pm is the only one I can play but I believe the 11 fills up more often as well.

Well we can't have that! I will stand down from any lobbying.
Honestly, thread is half tongue in cheek after last time when the loudest people calling for 9pm slot, that fills way less often than any other slot, beat out the 10am calls, which has never not filled early in its history (probably).

I'm personally for taking away the 9pm and bringing back the 10 am. For those that want a faster tourney, the 10 am historically has been a very aggressive tournament that ends sooner than any of the ones in the p.m.

Fewer than 40 players would be nice. Shorter blind rounds would be nice.

I hope they keep the 9pm. Only one I can really play after kids in bed and before I fall asleep.

11am, 3pm, 7pm, 11pm
4 tournaments, every 4 hours. Makes sense?
Either way, there needs to be an early tournament since I'm assuming it's time for the World Cup again since it seems to be every other promotion. Hopefully they change the format to a draft like people have been asking for (but I know that won't happen)

Hopefully we just get a new slot added and lose none of the current ones.
Not sure how Europeans feel but 10am is actually a lot better than 11am at this end of the world. Means it falls between 11pm and 1am down here depending on daylight saving status. 11am would be a bit too late for me about 4 or 5 months of the year.
One issue I think there is with the 10am ET is that it falls a little too early AM local time in CR to be sure any issues can be fixed before the days tournies start.

Yes, join one at 9 or 11pm ... seriously I don't know. they seem to be longer these days. The player pool may actually be a little better or tighter...
Wasn't the 10am the one that usually had the least amount of players registered? What makes us think if we create a 10am tournament the registration for the other tournaments won't suffer
