Roll Call “Chicago” (Part 2)

I like where you’re going, but needs more of a nonsensical FedEx Cup points kind of vibe. All events count. Can I skip the Burban and still gain enough points in the Tale of Two Nines and the Summit to qualify? Who’s to say?

What if we call it the ‘Billy Horschel exemption’?

I would take over March mudness if @PinkPantser would do the merch side and if @TeddyPargame remains on as the MC for the event

After a cabin weekend, this shower commentary hit really, really hard.

Questions:
Thoughts on discord? Are people getting tired of notifications from the people who are always on it?

How we doing on charity donations?

The “Major Payout”… can we just remove the big pot since a majority of people I have seen qualify for the NIT do not end up attending.

Favorite formats? I Would like to see more like Burban (s/o @PTM) I love playing in teams and the small wager that just ends up as the bar tab anyway. Sticks v city residents challenge?

city vs. surburb (and suburb adjacent) has been right in front of us this whole time. i’d be down for sure.

@djheadley i’ll be in the city the w/o 9/25. we should grab a beer or play some golf and discuss.

i’m genuinely curious about a venue change if people would be on board with that. even ravisloe may be interesting…

Very easy to set Discord notification settings to only ping you if you are tagged directly.

Worth sharing that you can mute individual threads. Sorry breakfast ball, I have you muted. We may need to clean up some of the threads as well

i don’t understand the point of having that many threads? makes it too tough for this elder millenial to follow.

So far we’re trending at +.5 per 2 weeks. So a 15 by end of season? That birdie on Links feels like a lifetime ago.

It’s hard enough to find a Friday/Saturday that they can give me 60 spots. I’m working on getting it to 72, though.

There are spots saved at the top for those who qualify from each roost (IL, WI, MN) and if the person who qualifies is say, 573920204 on the waitlist, they will jump to one of those spots. I will coordinate with roost captains as we start to get closer on all of that in the sheet as I will likely lock things down a bit in late May to early June to avoid any shenanigans in the lead up just like I did this year.

You were making birdies on The Links?

This is such a good point!

The team golf part got me thinking we should also discuss if we want to do another Brewer’s Cup against Michigan next year. Now that our Regional is against NSU and TSC it would be cool to keep that match against Michigan as an every other year thing. With the Ope in July we could do the Brewer’s Cup in September since it’s not related to the other Roost competitions.

Yeah I think Breakfast Ball as a whole can get deleted just bc it operates primarily on the refuge. Discord just never took as a true option for people to post and get responses back compared to the refugee

Primetime 72 definitely is rough, plus more commits more dropouts.

Thank you for the work, already put on the family calendar for '24.

Would love to take everyone’s pulse on merch? Are there any pieces people are hungry for before the end of this year?

It took 139 people, including myself, to get to the full field for Ope 2, which is also part of my hesitancy of expanding to 72. Even more so when it comes to having it the weekend after the 4th in 24.

I would absolutely LOVE to get to a point where we could get enough to essentially take over Lawsonia for 2 days, but that’s a hell of a long way off.
