Simon Cook posted a list on the FB group earlier this week.

It was not complete as not all lists were in 

I am assuming that when they all are a list will be posted here as well as on FB. I'll copy it over if nobody else does as not everyone is on FB.

It's been brought to my attention (having not played under the 2019 points tweaks) that 10K in 2.5 hours might be tricky now (we designed the schedule under the older rules).

Happy to take a vote on it, but would people be more comfortable with 4 x 3 hour games (as per last year) rather than 5 x 2.5 hours?

Not overly bothered to be honest.

[mad lemmey]

Definitely 4x3

Definitely won't complete many (if any) games in 2.5 hours.  I would much prefer 3 hour games.

Defo 4 x 3. Got to down a couple of Herbert's afterwards 

[nikgaukroger]

4 games of 3 hours has been confirmed elsewhere (i.e. Facebook  )

Looks like Tony has had to retire due to a shelving disaster.
Hopefully you will effect repairs okay mate and not too many figures suffered.
