next month ?

First of i think the idea of set tourneys rather than a blonde only mtt has worked and is better ( EvilPie,s idea i think or was it Dewi)
blonde only is a little incestuous  IMO

The reality is i will play whatever the format
I agree that playing for points help you focus on running deep (points = prizes )
I also think specified gtd tourneys were working well until the schedule change so we can compete in same tourneys

i think it should be based on gtd tourneys number of runners not being relevent

as for getting more to play perhaps for a month a focused approach could be tried ( 3 nights a week 3 or 4 specified tourneys ranging from 3 euros to 25 )
in that way you could blitz thread and ha rang the hell out of everybody as Kev used to for is Wednesday night donkathon 
if we could get more numbers then i think it might be an idea to amend prize structure to pay more places and include the smaller buy in comp at dtd

don't know what else to suggest

A few points:

I can't believe this isn't attracting more support with the two £112 seats at Dusk Till Dawn up for grabs. But with this level of support I can't believe they'll be on offer much longer. Are they not as attractive due to the cost of getting there? Perhaps offer one seat with £112 expenses to one winner rather than two seats to two winners with the consequent expense? No help to me as I'm only £5 of diesel away. Might make people from further afield sit up and take notice though?

It might be that the blonde community isn't as strong as it once was and we're putting the cart before the horse, i.e we should be asking how to strengthen the community feel of the forum which will then lead to increased interest in the leagues?

The reality is i will play whatever the format

Pretty much this - but I wouldn't be keen on playing non-holdem variants as frankly I haven't got the faintest idea how to play them but I'd even give those a go so long as everyone promised not to laugh at me and make me cry.

I thought the initial idea for the revised format was great - it's a shame that schedule got shredded. I was gutted when the 7.30 €22 Deepstack went as I loved that tournament but I seem to have found a set of tourneys which quite suit me for a slightly lower total daily buy-in. So personally I'm quite happy with the current set-up but accept it can't carry on like this (at least not with the added value).

It would be nice to throw at least one blonde-only tournament per week into the mix if that's possible now on DTD - not sure how you'd arrange for the points awarded to be equitable with the bigger fields of the other tourneys though. Perhaps we could include any tourney by awarding points based on percentage profit made?

Obviously getting the old boy's arm up his back and getting him to multi-table while playing on Sky would be a big draw. We could call it the Lord Lucan tourney - bonus points to whoever knock's him out.

Why i havn't played this month?

Simple answer=busted my account.

Reasons i have not re-deposited,

I don't like the software,ask me why?I can't put my finger on it-I just don't.
World cup,time of year,been playing live a lot more.
Schedule is poor,even before the guarantees were reduced.I've just checked my records and last year i played 845 mtts on the Blonde ipoker skin,being a shift worker there was almost always something with a decent mtt prizepool to enter,BOSS just hasn't got the numbers.
TBF i think i'am just a little jaded with online poker at the moment and need a break.

I will probably put a bit into DTD next month to try and sat into some live stuff,but the league thing isn't very appealing to be honest.Sorry to not have anything constuctive to add,i would love to help Blonde keep going as i take out a lot more from this site than i put in.
