In Response To: Let's be supportive (David)

And I think the backgammon community is grateful. But sometimes threads like this may be misinterpreted, and could be discouraging.

Yeah, sorry if I came off as not so encouraging... as a west coast guy, I'm all too familiar with Fresno and it has it's own set of weirdness for me personally. But some posts seem to indicate that it's not THAT hard for the easterly types to get to Fresno, and it's driving distance for lots of people in CA/NV. Combined with a good hotel rate and not right on top of the other west coast tournaments, I think this will be a well attended and successful tournament.

I've been considering ways of getting as many Vegas folks out there as possible.
