Shyyster, most tourney games are played from about 9 AM EST to 4 PM EST. Sometimes they go a bit longer, but it just depends on the day. Most people are able to find time. Today happened to be a day where not a lot of ppl were on after the initial burst. You get a feel for how this tourney works after a few days.
Look I'm sorry it didn't work out for you, but Jane has put in a lot of time, energy, and money into this tourney. You don't have to like her rules or agree with her definition of gamethrowing, but at least respect her efforts.
