Glad to see the Gauntlet discussion getting traction now.

We have had, on average, 1.5 seasons per year. We can indeed have them be fully twice a year. That is cool with me.

I would like to see a successful mix of holdem and non-holdem games that both have equally good turnouts, but everything we've tried in the past have not been too successful. Keep in mind, also, that the point system and leaderboard is automated and must be programmable, so we shouldn't do anything overly complicated.

The suggestion of having a game as frequently as every day doesn't seem to work in my mind. It's been tricky enough filling the twice-weekly games; I feel having them daily will simply spread out our players too thin. Remember, the big online tournaments have a player pool of tens of thousands. We only have hundreds (officially in the roster -- active players probably number in the dozens).

Please keep the suggestions coming. Once we have a decent consensus, I will start promoting the heck out of this season, with plenty of advance notice.

Thanks!
