[Ultimate] Tues @ Greer & Thurs @ Cubberley? / Re: Can we move back to Cubberley?

[Sushant Rao]

Since:
-  Some people prefer Greer over Cubberley
-  Eagle Park only plays on Thursdays
-  Thursday is the lower turnout day

How about Tues @ Greer & Thurs @ Cubberley?  

Those that want Greer will still have one day a week at Greer.  And turnout will improve on Thursday.

Yes, people will have to remember which field to go on Tues versus Thurs but I don't think that will be too much of a problem.


Any concerns with this proposal?  


Thanks

I am hoping not to move because it increases my commute to play.  Often times the 101 gets backed up in southbound direction around lunch for no apparent reason.  However, during the rainy season, it makes sense.  Additionally, the air quality is better at Cubberly as diesel fumes waft over to Greer from the 101 on occasion.

At 12:43, we had 4 players at Greer (raj, Terry, me and Evan?). So, we called it and left

Either we have 9 commits (so I know people are coming, even if they are late) or we join with eagle park at Cubberley

I vote for cubberley

Charles switched to Cupertino's TuTh game after Frank Huguenard was banned there.  And Hartti and Peter are probably playing there.  But they would have switched no matter where we play - they won't come back just because we play at Cubberley again.  Most of our other players haven't switched games, they simply haven't made it out as much recently.  Some, like Yukon, due to injuries.  And Thursdays for our game generally have lower turnouts.

We ALMOST left one day last week - I think it was Thursday - when we only had 4 players at 12:40, but then another 6 players showed up late, and we were glad to have stayed.  Too many people were unable to come today.  Eagle Park had 10 players total - combined, we would have had a single, slightly larger game.
