How do you foosers feel about Co State being scheduled over Halloween weekend? I guess this has more of an effect on those of us with young kids...although my kid is able to celebrate without me being around. Since I'm seeing early resistance on the EZ board, I'm wondering if there's any chance of rescheduling the event.

I'm kinda in agreement with Nick after reading some comments from regular participants on the EZ board. I am also away on vacation usually on the last week of October and this time even the first week of November. Although I'm not sure I would participate in a tour type event until the scheduling improves so that an event doesn't run for an extra day or two like what happened to me in AD two tourneys ago, finals taking place at 6 AM on Monday morning after the event started 3+ hours delayed at around 10 PM on Saturday, I still like to be a fan and cheer on my Colorado foos friends. I also provide lodging for certain traveling out of State fooser(s) and I will not be able to do that this year with the Hallowen weekend schedule.

Why not shoot for early October instead? I know there is a concern about scheduling too close to another tour event but what I've seen from the past few years is that some of these other events don't stick to a regular schedule either.

Halloween weekend is gonna leave alot of people home. I like the original dates and it seems to fit for almost 300 players. To change the date is a mistake IMO. Colorado state is strong enough to not have to change to keep it one of the best tournaments on the planet.

I would dare to speculate that the Doubletree Hotel has a lot to do with the schedule. I doubt that TSK thought, "hey, I have a revolutionary idea..."

Wow! Sheri moved Colorado State because the Bart O need the Nov 14 because of everything going on in Austin and no hotels would be available for them until Nov. I guess history of the US Open and Bart O being on the same weekend kind of drove that decision. Bart O being the tournament it is should take priority over any State tournament. We will meet this week and discuss alternatives and let you know.

Posted on the Board:

Weekly TSK tourneys - dead
CO state - shot in the head by putting it on Halloween.

There will be a ceremony with Sheri giving back her Promoter of the year award this year.

Although the promotor awards made me feel really good, I didn't ask for or expect them.

We have been reading both boards and we'll do what we can to make the majority happy.

Don't read Scotts shit Sheri, he just wants to see the world burning. Sometimes I think we all need to pitch in and beat Scott with bars of soap wrapped in towels. Unless he started liking it, then everyone should just cover their butt and run.

Holy crap you! I was just joking! Sorry I have a twisted sense of humor, but it just comes out. I try curtailing it, but there’s no stopping what can’t be stopped.

And no, I don’t know what’s gone on in your life, we’re not BFF’s, but I do hope all is well with you guys.

Obviously I recognize everything that TSK has done, and thank you guys for it. If you, or any fooser, ever needed anything, I would step up in a heartbeat (short of paying for your vacations). I can’t help my sense of humor, it’s not butthole obsessed like Jim’s.

I’m not going to go all Roger posting some declaration apology. “Hear hear…let it be known that today…the 4th of March…I issue a stately apology to Tommie…”lol…but I will say this…

Please accept my sorries…

Scott's best sense of humor is shown on the foosball table with his skill set.
Also when he poses in front of the mirror after his morning shower.

If Gym has truly been watching Scott in the shower, this could explain a lot.

Colorado State should take a backseat to no Tournament!!!

In the 80's through , somewhere in the 90's Colorado had a 30-40 THOUSAND dollar Tournament!

Maybe it was just in the 80's.
The point is we had some very good promoters here in Colorado.

I'm not sure what happened? I didn't step up and do anything, but neither did anyone else.

So " WE " Anyone in the Foosball world did nothing to promote or elect a promoter for our state.

So here we are now, with the current promoters doing an Excellent job!!,
While going through there own life issues and challenges.

Again " Colorado should not take a backseat to any other State or Tournament, Including World's!
