How do you manage your invite list?
For example, say you have a monthly game, and you like to run 9 person tournaments. I can imagine it could be hard to get 9 reg.s that can attend 12 games a year. Do you have a "last game gets first invite" system? Or do you do "sell-out racing" where your entire pool knows about the game at the same time, first 8 (8+you = 9) to respond get in?
If you do "last game gets first invite" system, what happens in more complex scenarios?
Say for 3 months you have the same players. Then 4th month, player9 doesn't make it. You sub in sub1. You have a deep sub list, at least 5 subs. You don't have attendance information on subs - they've never played in your game. Then 5th month, sub1 can't make it. Do you re-invite player9, or do you pull sub2? How do you "rank" your sub list?
Also, do people ever get offended? If they know you have a monthly game but don't get an invite after missing 1 game, are they upset?
How do you make this all work in a league context?
Am I over thinking? Oh, probably. But that's what I do best! LOL.
