If you guys need players, you should post an ad on Kijiji. That usually works well enough to attract a few more people.

I can make it this Thursday if it's still going. Makes me think I should get some ghetto goalie equipment. Goalies are always in demand. If we have enough for 3 vs 3 with 2 goalies, we should go for it.

I can make it for all 3 days.

Yeah, goalies are definitely in demand (and could end up deciding if certain games can happen).

Is 6pm start time planned for all 3-4 days?

I'd also be able to play Saturday mornings/afternoon. (Not too early)

Yep. 6pm for the 20th (if it happens), the 24th and the 27th.

Unless we get 3-4 more people for the game on the 20th, we'll just cancel that one and plan for holiday monday as our first organized game.

A chick, playing a man's game. Am I the only one that disgusted that you let her out of the kitchen, let alone probably bought her shoes.

Whats with you man?

Hang your head in shame.

Yes to both!

Ok, so I've updated the list of people who can make each potential game, though I'm still waiting to hear back from flameswin and showtime who both expressed interest at some point.

As of right now we only have 5 people for tomorrow (I'm not counting myself as I have to leave after an hour, and Mean Mr. Mustard who can only get there an hour and a half in to it).

So my question to BurningYears,LGA, FlamesKickAss, 1stLand, and Rifleman:
If nobody else can make it, would you still be up for 2 vs 2 with 1 goalie?

If not, we can scrap tomorrow's game and plan for Monday as our first.

Agreed. I propose that we use 10 confirmed people as our minimum required.

As of right now we have 6 for tomorrow, plus Mean Mr. Mustard and I can only make it for a brief time each, so we'll count as 1 combined.

Meaning we have 7 confirmed for tomorrow, and need at least 3 more for it to still happen.

We're good to go already for Monday and Thursday, and I suspect the number of people attending will continue to grow for those two days.

I think 7-8 confirmed could get the job done. If we only have one goalie we can play half, you really only need 3 players per side (subs would be nice).

I may also be able to get a buddy of mine out who lives a couple of minutes away.

It sounds like most people would prefer to wait until Monday, so I'm thinking we'll just cancel tomorrow's game.

So first game will be Monday, May 24th at 6 pm.

Figured I'd bump this so people know that tomorrow's game is not going to happen and our first game will be Monday @ 6pm!
