Basically its a holiday to "give thanks". In reality, its an excuse for eating too much, watching too much football, drinking, partying etc. Most businesses (except retail) close for the 4 days (Thursday-Sunday). That Friday is also considered "black friday" where the Xmas shopping season kicks off with huge sales etc. Lots of ppl use it for a short 4 day vacation period.
Probably won't be an issue..I wouldnt change anything imo

Congrats my friend, wfd obv. I'd like to play also.
On a side note, I don't think Thanksgiving should be an issue for U.S. players at all. It is a bloody 4-day weekend!!! What better time to play in fact? I know we talked about this before as possibility, and now that you have actually picked the same day that I had in mind, it is official. My Summer Of Love freeroll will be on the same day (I am 99% sure). I hadn't picked out a time yet, but maybe we should just roll them at the same time. We'll hammer out the details on AIM soon.
Again, major props on your accomplishment!!! |
