As I start wrapping up 2018 and look to making 2019 adjustments, I'm curious how to handle a problem of too many players, not enough seats. As it stands, I can host 20 players, including myself. My issue is I've got 30+ players who would like to get in on the game. Obviously this creates a challenge when it comes to the league format. I'm already scheduling my games "Ticket Master" style, where I don't put up the sign up until a specified time/date. My last round filled in 12 minutes with 4 waitlists (my max).
I can't expand - no room (nor do I want to)
I like damn near everyone in the group, so I don't want to try and pick favorites.
Any suggestions?
I'm thinking more games, but then how do I make it fair to determine the end of year league winner if one guy makes all 24 (me and probably 4 to 5 other degens)?
I know there are plenty of guys who can do only one game a month, but as it stands I have guys I enjoy playing with that didn't even get a wait list spot.
Has anyone else that's been running a long term league had this issue, and how did you resolve it? Or am I just overthinking it - and leave it as is - first come, first serve - you snooze you lose?
