SNOW?
Well, as it stand some of our venues are already talking about canceling the Tuesday games.
We will wait and see as I don't trust the weatherman!
Meanwhile, the game is scheduled to begin at 3:30pm. We have a slight conflict in that the ballroom was occupied and I was unable to get fully set up prior to 3pm, but we managed to get all 1st Round answers in by 3:36pm. The game ended at almost exactly 5:30pm (all final question answers were in by 5:23pm. It takes a few minutes for me to enter all answers and scores, but not too long.
The point is, some very vocal players complained that the game was going a little past 6:00, causing them to be late for their 6pm dinner reservations. Thus changes were implemented to resolve the issue on a permanent basis.
If we start at 4pm and there are any do-overs, or if there are teams challenging math on their scores, we could still end up going past 6pm even with me cutting out a lot of the 'fun' of the game and sticking strictly to trivia. So, starting at 4 cannot GUARANTEE you'll be ordering dinner at 6.
Could people make their reservations for 6:20 or 6:30? Sure. But this option was not chosen by those who complained. I'm very sorry for the early time causing gnashing of teeth on the other end. I feel your pain. The noisiest of wheels got the WD-40. I am doing what I was told, "get people out before 6pm every time."
