Yeah, fair enough. I think the current fixture is ok (but can't speak for everyone else), so maybe just adjust the buy-ins/guarantees??

One special event a week would be great though, at $10-$20 buy-in at say 8pm AEST would still get a few numbers I think. I would prefer Wed or Sat night for that, but again, you've got to put it on the night when you will get the most runners, and not upset the venues.....

Has there been alot of negative feed back regarding the current fixtures, or is it just the buy-in levels?

I think there should be a weekly event that is only available based on the previous weeks performance.
Ie you are only able to play if you have won or finished in top 3 the previous week.

I get a little annoyed that there is a hard core group of about 50 players each week, that end up playing against casual players that only go on 888pl when you are giving away gtd payouts or it is a freeroll.
Some of the calls in $888 freeroll this week are horrible.

Since you've asked and since my bank roll is making a steady climb in the right direction of late, I'd like to see a $20 or $30 buyin once a week on a Wednesday aswell.

1.) Never suffered a downswing before?
2.) How would I implement this? I can do password restricted tournaments if you want to get a group of players together for an event?
3.) Horrible calls is the goldmine of all serious poker players, don't bemoan them. Moan about how sick it was and how bad you run instead.

Saturday is definitely still in.

5 extra events on Saturday (big guarantees).

Tuesday and Wednesday just sees an additional $20 event added to the fixture.

Yeah Pity about Wednesday nights :( , But most Saturdays are good .
Problem with Sunbury's idea is that it is an open league , not an elitist league. "there are already games that you have to qualify for before you can play the target event "
