Back to Clocks

and they surely want to maximize attendance and revenue.

As I've said before, some players (moi) will not be attending certain events if they aren't clock starting 2009. It goes both ways, or at least I'm going to make it go both ways.

I'm also a big enough prick to make it clear on the most public of forums these days the tournaments that do cater to clock usage and those that don't and always add my 2 cents worth. (there's a surprise, and I do expect change sometimes)

I agree with you that at the local level you shouldn't be pushing the clock on non open/championship level players. It would still be nice if those players saw the clock in use and were perhaps not later intimidated by it or maybe even wanted to use it on their own.

If enough players make it clear they will or won't be attending an event because of the implementation or lack thereof, the TD will be forced to do so. If this is what it takes I'm up for it. I will probably harp on Neil & Bob & Matt if he comes to enough events next year and anyone else who is willing to jump on board to say "clocks or I'm out".
