IBL Week 2 News

Dear IBL members,

It has been suggested that we move up the Sunday playing time, partly
to accomodate our patient Euro friends who have been starting play at
3 am their time for 2 seasons now, partly just to free up the Sunday
evening for non-Bolo activities.

An informal poll on r.g.b. yielded 4 people who said they'd play pretty
much any time.  How would everybody feel about moving it up so we start
1 hour earlier at 7 pm EDT on Sundays only?  This is *NOT* an official
change, just making a suggestion to see how everybody reacts.

WEEK 2 RESULTS:

We had 2 divisions on each night, all played out without any problems.
By the way, we've had a near perfect record for 5 weeks in a row now.
Continuing the Duke Bolo tradition, Max and Jolo both went 0-3.  Jolo is
once again nearly defining the worst possible IBL rating.
We were happy to welcome a few newcomers, ranging from old vets like goob
and Lancelot to newbie bump.

I'll be absent next week... going home to San Francisco for some much
needed R&R.  Will will run the show as he has been doing (thanks bud).
I'll see all of you during Week 4 if I've recovered sufficiently from
the trip.
