SCHEDULE - Official Season IX Schedule!!
I'm trying to see what the interest would be to start up another season for the FTR Gauntlet. If you don't know what it is, it's a 12 week series with 2 games per week. You score points depending on your finish each week, person with the highest 12 game point total when the season is over wins some cash and a sexy trophy. It's a lot of fun when FTR regs participate, and an all around a good time.
For those who are interested in giving feedback on the new season, please see this thread - Gauntlet Suggestions w/ Data
Right now, we should be able to start in about 2 weeks, give er take. But for now, your feedback is important. Also, a rough count of how many people would participate would be nice.
Oh, and I'm down for any sidebets.
