Default Next seasons leagues - Feedback needed

hi all

although I'm going to need to make some decisions soon to be able to organise all the leagues - new hosts for US Open league (with the mix of freerolls & buy-ins) + the between the season games + adding in the new Full Tilt & PokerStars league

a few things have come up from trying to establish good slots for the new FullTilt & PokerStars Buy-in League

ie. at a time especially and a day(s) when both US and Non US members can play - this seems to boil down to playing them at a mid time or on Saturday or Sunday when we havent got so many issues of time difference as people are not generally at work

ok so this is just a suggestion - so it might be a bad on but ...

currently we have two leagues (US Open & Non US leagues) at different times (one later & one earlier) on Thursdays (for the freerolls) and Sundays (for the buy-ins) but essentially
these leagues (although the US Open is open to all) are timed for US for one and European for the other

having a middle time eg. 5pm EST (10pm GMT) makes weekdays a bit tricky for US as this isnt really do-able

One possibility is to move the days of the US Open and Non US leagues (ie. to Tuesdays for freerolls & Thursdays for buy-ins) and then this free's up Sundays

Sunday could then be used for the Full Tilt & PokerStars league with games at an earlier 3pm EST and later time 7pm EST on Sundays (alternating the two sites between weeks ie Saturday FullTilt & Sunday PokerStars one week and vice versa the following week)

or

we could have a middle time (eg. 5pm EST) and run the games on both Saturday & Sunday (again alternating week by week)

or

we could leave the current leagues on Thursdays and Sundays and sandwich the FTP & Stars league games in at 5pm EST on Thursdays and Sundays

so here is the question ...

Would a move to Tuesdays for the existing US Open & Non US league freerolls & a move to Thursdays for the existing US Open & Non US leagues work ?

IF SO

then do we do Saturday & Sunday 5pm EST games for the new FullTilt & PokerStars League

or do Sunday only with two games at 3pm EST & 7pm EST for the new full tilt / pokerstars league ?

let me know below & vote in poll (multiple options available)

cheers scrawnybob
