In a normal year the Six Challenge Tournament would be over and the trophy would be off to its next holder for a year. This year by any definition is not a normal year. BUD and I have discussed if it was even possible to do the tournament this year. Now we would like to hear from others about what you think.
We would like to do another five week tournament with one dropped score as in the past. One thing that would be required is that every team would have to play remotely. Buzztime at least for now provides the technology to do that.
So we are putting this out to see if there is interest in doing the tournament. Also we are looking for suggestions on how best to do it so it is fair for all participants. We don't know the local circumstances for each team so if there is something that we can accommodate let us know.
Right now we are thinking of end of July or early August for the tournament. A shorter tournament of four weeks is possible.
So please let us know what you think and try to respond as soon as you can. IDJT and BUD
That would be playing remotely via the Buzztime app??
How about "sharing"?? Our small group has done that via a conference call.

Hey Ray J, thanks for being the 1st to chime in, yes that would be on the BT app only. That is the only way a lot of teams would be able to play, too many bars closed or very limited on seating. All players would have to be on the app, no one can play in the bar, there is too much of an advantage playing in the bars. You see more of the clues and get less lag in the bar so to make it even everyone has to be at home.
Yes of course you can share. That's the way teams play. You can do zoom, conference calls, google hangouts, whatever as long as no one is cheating or gaining an advantage. That would include not looking anything up and no logging into another bar at the same time as logged into the team bar. One bar only!!! Yes, we will have to take everyones's word on that.
So, Time Out West would probably be in for a Thur SIX tourney?
