Default Alternate MCFA League Idea

I like the idea of an MCFA league...I will throw out for discussion one alternative...

Perhaps we reinstate the tournament rankings system where you get points based on your performance and # of participants in a pre-approved tourney. Then, at the convention, there is a "tournament of the top 8" points getters for a final cup with their hotel expenses paid by the MCFA or something.

That idea:
- Promotes more participation in the individual events (kind of like when we had the tournament rankings in the mid 2000's)
- Provides a little more of a claim to "top in the hobby"

Could be fun...thoughts?

I can bring the rankings back for the 09-10 year (post MCFA convention this year) and yes, I'll set it up.

As for the phone call...the points are the points and would be based on # of participants with perhaps an additional "major" factor (like the majors in golf). I'm nominating Jimmy Davis as my official phone screener. If you can get by him then I'll take the call!!!

Default Me too!

That was one of the highlights of our growth. No questions asked. A very simple system that brought true motivation for people to go to tourneys. That's really what's needed right now. Hope it's a go!
