IMHO, football and watervolleyball don't mix. Never have. People might have plans for the games. Also, far too distracting. What are we gonna do, talk during commercials?
I'd say you were right the first time. Do it on Saturday.
Let's get the day/time for council meeting nailed down ASAP.
I'm amused that, since Pandas thought democracy (i.e., ballots, voting) were a disaster, the answer is even more democracy!
We shall know soon enough.
And now, deep thoughts in preparation for the Council:
If this new freewheeling approach is a harbinger of things to come, heed my words: "Everyone chooses their own level of involvement" is indeed one of our credos, but if that turns into, "Everyone does whatever they want" then you are dangerously close to the Riata ethos, which you claim you hate.
A league without structure is no league at all.
I suppose I should be pleased that a generation of players has grown up thinking that keeping the AWVP fully staffed, trained, and combat ready at championship level with places to play is a process that naturally takes care of itself. Not so. There are plenty of my posts that say different, which were blissfully ignored.
Chief is a poopy head, and I like cheese : )
If you don't do your homework, you can't have any cheese. How can you have any cheese if you don't do your homework!?
As the SS Argosy was going down, I even tried to make sure that there would be a fallback position--not ideal, to be sure, but proven game. Clearly people don't like the Riata cheese, and I don't much blame them.
The option offered something, vs. nothing. Because, as usual, most everyone else was else was having a good time obeying their basic instincts and doing what was easy, blowing up the sunshine...

So, with no other proven options on the horizon, one tries to provide the greatest good for the greatest number, even if it's "tasty wheat" (see Matrix).
In terms of finding a new home for lost Pandas, paradropping into a venue and taking it over probably ain't going to work--see Marquis de Faggotry, Mirage, well intentioned attempts this season, and the long list of pools in the Dallas area the Ronins can tell you about.
Short term slash and burn solutions may seem attractive to some people, but I don't see how it will work in terms of securing a new place to play or keeping Panda Corps filled with fresh converts in the long term.
Thus, once we get done with the most important issue on the table: how to honor ourselves this year, I humbly recommend we get to issue #2: What else ya got!?
