Because the ladle has always taken place at the second sunday of the month, not much to discuss about that
You're kidding right? It's always been the 1st Sunday of the month...

If thats true (probably

) then it will take place at 7th.....
my mistake

btw..... the locked page isn't very secure

and.... I guess we can pick a date for the *bowl* because we actually passed the 100 signups mark.....

The 7th sounds better especially since that's what tradition has taught me about the Ladle.

I also kinda like the idea of 2 big tournaments one week apart, before the holiday season.

1st choice: 14th December
2nd choice: 7th December

As far as the "bowl" goes, I think that side of things needs a serious rethink. No sport has a system similar to the "spoon, ladle, bowl, cup" and if you think about it using more than 3 brain cells you will see why. Note that we should have a spoon every week but don't...nuff said.

imo we should have a ladle every 2 months, and if we get enough, a 16 team match every year.

It won't work like that owned. Each tournament will have roughly the same number of players in. The only way that different sized tournaments work is when you have region-based tournaments (state/county, country, continent, etc). The idea of having different sized tournaments open to all of Arma is crazy. People need to realise this.

IMO, the Ladle is in our history. Leave it as our "all of Arma" tourney. If the community gets bigger, then we can add some regional tournaments.
