casual interim event on saturdays?

(1/4) > >>

Velvet:
With the Sky League over and no established organiser running anything (at least foreseeably in the next couple of weeks) I'm wondering if we need a community solution to temporarily fill the Saturday slot and leave us with something to do.

If anyone would be interested in participating in or casting such an event please state your interest and I'll try and get something organised for the upcoming Saturday. If anyone thinks they'd make a better job of organising an interim event than me... they're probably right. I'd be happy to step aside in that case. ^^

My preliminary suggestion is to take the structure and start time straight from the Saturday Box Social. However I'm open to other people's ideas; there's a couple of ways we could take advantage of the fact that this a nonserious, interim event eg. trying Bo1 instead of Bo3 or implementing novelty ship/loadout rules. I'd kind of like to repeat Baptism by Spire, or take a new spin on the same kind of idea. Baptism by Mobula?

Alistair MacBain:
Give us a few days guys. A new tournament is in the work and will go start soon.

Velvet:
presumably your tournament will not be announced much sooner than next weekend and you'll allow more than a week for signups. leaving a minimum of 2 weekends that an interim event could fill in. The event I'm proposing to organise is only a temporary one to give teams something to do in this current gap.

My assumptions may be wrong and you might be planning to push the league out much sooner. However that's not at all clear or the impression I'm getting, so unless you actually say so I'm going to attempt to continue with this initiative. The nice thing about an event modelled after the Box Social or Sunday Rumble is there's no massive signup phase or persisting structure so it can easily be discontinued with very little notice. Unless you're planning to do something this very next weekend, there's at least room for one iteration of an interim event.

Alistair MacBain:
K then i just missunderstood you and thought you plan it a big bigger ;).

ok, cool. I'm well aware of the upcoming tournament/league and looking forward to it. I don't want to step on anyone's toes. ^^

That said, I spoke to Skrimskraw and now I'm considering focusing on the Sunday rather than the Saturday. That means no concern of conflict with the major event and that, if people wanted, both could continue in parallel and we'd return to the pre-Sky League state of 2 events to play in each weekend. So I have a new query:

who is interested in a new event on Sunday, and if so how much would you like to see changed or retained from the structure and rules of the Sunday Rumble?
