I'm thinking that this tournament will fill up quickly, since it allows only 16 players. That puts the guys in the western time zones at a distinct disadvantage. I believe at Midnight of Nov.30th, there will be registrations submitted but for the time zones west of EST, the disadvantage is obvious. So can the PST guys register at 9:01 pm on Nov.30th, ditto for the other time zones at 10:01, etc?

Brig. General Ringbloom,
Drex,

I'm of the understanding that the M&D Tavern is set to Eastern Standard Time... it's not specific to your particular time zone so you are not at any particular disadvantage.

I'm in the Central Time Zone... so I just need to make an hour adjustment to conform to the Eastern Time Zone so that I'll be registering at the very same time as everyone else is.

Does that make sense? [;)]

Sirs,

El Degüello tournament registration will be synchronized to US Eastern Standard Time (EST). I am disappointed that Sgt. Prax Swan did not make this clear when he proof read the prior postings. However, please rest assured that Pvt. Swan will clarify the point on his next visit to MDT.

I fully understand now. Please elevate Private Swan to his previous rank. He can't always aim for the lowest common denominator.[:p]
