[POOL] Game On!

Just to reiterate what the note below says for the benefit of our new
players, more than the required number of players for the night are
always welcome, so even though 4 players have already signed up, that
doesn't mean that more can't.  On nights when we only have 4 matches
to play (ie, no makeup matches), that does mean we'll have more
players than matches, but over the course of the season, we'll try to
give everyone equal opportunity to play (just like Little League :) ).
On a given night, we'll try to play those who haven't played in a
while or who we know won't be available in the future, but if you
really have the urge to play, don't be shy; sign up on the website and
send an email to the list saying so.

This week, in addition to tonight's 4 matches, we have 1 match to
makeup from last week which we should be able to play (ie, it's likely
our opponent from last week will have an eligible player tonight and
that a table will be available).  Az, Martino and I all played last
week, so we aren't eligible for the makeup, but everyone else is, so
we could definitely use a 5th tonight.  We also have 2 more matches to
makeup from 2 weeks ago.  Our opponent from that week has been hurting
for players, so I'm less confident that we'll be able to play those
matches tonight, but if we do, everyone except Tami and I is
eligible for those.
