A fun listen, although there were a bunch of time I was yelling at the podcast with corrections. Also, I cant believe Stu forgot I was in his group at Destroyer Park Golf!  Don't take it personally brother! I can't remember what I had for breakfast these days! |

Maybe I’ll volunteer to run tournaments if the Con isn’t too far away and I’m there live. I feel like I can totally pull this off.

What if we went back to what we did when I first started and different people each run their own tournaments rather then them all centrally run. So Rob you run a COTG one, then we have someone else run an Indies and another person run Legends. Then its not all on one person. I'll still handle the Gcon cup on Sunday. |

I will happily volunteer to run the Legends or Indies tournament. I would just need help with the cards as depending on location I will be flying more likely than not. This takes the burden off of one or two people and spreads the wealth. I guess the next question is to we run only four tournaments: Indies, Legends, COTG, and Canada Cup and then have the winner and runner up in each place in the in person Galacticup. Then we can run virtual tournaments come up with four and have them have their own Virtual Galacticup. |

Q and A to me is 2 1/2 hours of killing Con time. Everyone just sits quietly or goes outside to talk. We're not going to get anything in advance and people for the GWF are still digesting (Legends and Indy don't have storylines so all we really get is stuff like how so and so got signed for the game) I respectfully have to disagree. People were not sitting quietly or going outside to talk during the Indie panel as they were very loudly talking amongst themselves as me and Ty were trying to speak. I am not upset about it but I did notice some people there who were interested in the Indie panel looked like they were straining to hear us in the room over those other voices. And I think the story of A-Kid signing is notable as this is a guy who has been signed to the WWE since 2019 so perhaps some might reasonably wonder how is he in the game. I was just fortunate to sign him at BOLA 2019 about 3 weeks before he signed his WWE contract. |

they could have been. My table was quiet. I tend to tune in only to the discussion panels and ignore other people talking. It is unfortunate that people choose to be rude and talk through the DP.
Still, think the discussion panels could use some adjusting.

This is completely NOT intended to be sexist... What we need is a "Tournament Secretary".
Someone who stays in one place while tournaments are taking places to do the following:
- Manage the wrestler selection process
- Issue wrestler cards
- Manage Tournament Bracket tracking
- Collecting wrestler cards
I think have a designated individual and designated place for running the tournaments, call it "Tournament Central" would immensely help!
-----
I also think rather than the brackets being blank, they should be prefilled with the participants. Each slot has a number...those who want to participate draw a number and you get the corresponding character. This could also be modified in that you draw a number and then get to pick your participant from who is pre-identified in the tournament.
-----
I like that there is discussion about this while it is fresh in everyone's mind...spurs lots of good discussion.

And, no offense to you Vegas, or Ty, but you both are also two of the most soft-spoken people, which makes it challenging to hear you from the distance we were away to begin with. I had the misfortune of sitting next to someo f the people who were loudly talking during the panels so that was tough for me, especially with my partial hearing loss due to tinnitus in my left ear. The fact that they were staying on the left side of me, made it even worse and harder to hear. |

I feel like Bad News Barrett, "Ladies and gentlemen, can I have some decorum please? Can I have some decorum please?" |
