Well, 2 days before a big X-mas tournament here we got our games snatched. Apparently an out-of-town organization came in with a lower bid.

So I have 1 whole game this week.

Gee, I hope that out of town org can do it in the future, because if I were you guys, I'd tell them to shove it next year.

I'll reserve my comments on the situation until we get the full story. But it was disheartening. It's a pretty good tournament with a mix of local and out-of-town teams. I was looking forward to working it.

Maybe your organization ought to pay the out of towners a visit to their local areas and start poaching games. I'm sure they'd really appreciate that.

Thanks for having my back (though lately I've been leaving typos alone unless they're funny). I'm in NYC at the moment and behind on my forum monitoring.
