I haven’t been on it enough to figure out about hosting a home game - I just play in one. I have a conference call at 4:30 but can maybe look into it a bit tonight if no one else has the quick answers

The only caveat I'll throw in is there should be a contingency plan if it fails. I've had 2 tables fail on us mid-tounament and it's never a happy crowd. There's no quick support option that I can see either, they got back to me over a week later with no help and a "we're sorry, it's real busy".

It feels like we should push this a week until we finish getting our ducks in a row. Once someone sets up to host a home game that person needs to send out invites through the site to everyone - people can then jump in for games we schedule as they are able.

You should see Home Games in the bottom right corner.
