Site updates: Just a few from yesterday, nothing of not really. I updated the sidebar links, and made a few adjustments to the teams, contact, rules and centres pages.
Quasar updates: The first new Wednesday Regs Night in Bray will take place tomorrow night. It's a direct consequence of a conversation had at Angela and Al's party almost 2 weeks ago, since the change of night from Monday to Sunday doesn't suit a lot of people. Quasar will still be played on Sunday evenings, but one suspects it is aimed more at inexperienced players, while it is hoped that Wednesday will be home for the veterans. I for one am looking forward to it immensly. Having hardly touched a pack since winning the World Championships in May, I really miss playing. I count that I've played on 5 ocassions since then: twice in Concorde and 3 times in Bray. It's really not enough, and I'm determined to change it. This in no way reflects any notion that a lack of practice will substantially hurt my game (I'm as confident as ever that I can ruin 99% of players in the world), my determination to play is based solely on the fact that I wish to participate, have fun, and play Quasar the way I feel it should be played, a way that isn't played much any more. This isn't a swipe at cover (those days are long gone), more just a lament that with every new player that enters the game, the regular community consists less of the players who pioneered competitive play in this country, and les of those who tried to advance it not only for personal gain. In conclusion the game has changed, and I'm determined to make it like the old days again. And I'm not alone.

Did some updates yesterday. Some of them quite major and a long time coming. Events have been updated (including the last two - Tampa & SS) and I managed to remember enough about the May World Championships to finally complete that page. There's also a place for the next Bray competition, were information will go as it comes in.
Other than that I had a quick look at profiles, and noticed that it's been so long that a lot of people are older than it says. I've rectified that an some other erroneous information.
That's it, will probably post again in another month or so!
