To use the excuse that IAABO does not have a presence where I live is just that an excuse, not a reason.
Forgive me but that sounds like an implication to me.

Personally, I don't need more games. I accept what I get and I'm thankful for them. But what's wrong with wanting more games? What's wrong with making use of the tools that an organization has to offer to help one improve and improve their schedule? What's wrong with wanting to be the best you can be and working the best games you can get?

IMHO, the answers are nothing, nothing and nothing.

Best of luck to you!
