This is an interesting question.  At first I was leaning toward the one weekend option: a big event, not watered down.  But now I'm thinking having two weekends in a row could bring a whole week with lots of games going and a fun Festival atmosphere.  So I say maybe the two weekend option

I agree the 2 weekend option is better, however for arguments sake I thought its better to let the community decide.

I don't really have time on Fridays to oversee this operation, if Ritalin or Mouse would like to host something on one of the Fridays that would be cool.

It is possible to play in two tournaments.
However it probably isn't possible for someone to advance in both tournaments. For instance if someone makes it to the Semi Finals in the Gow singles he probably wont make it to the customs tournament later in the day.

Only thing I was thinking to change in selection A) is maybe that BGH game. Was thinking to change it to Chop Mad or something.

45 man paintball is probably the worst game on the server and it has a pool of like two people who could win.  Wish you'd replace that with either a 1v1 or 2v2 gow bne/f tournament.
