Agusaris and I would like to participate this weekend. Daytime or evening UK time, that would make it morning or (early) afternoon American time.

Is there anyone who could host our table? Would be greatly appreciated ♥

Hi Helene, I'm sure me or one of the others can - do you have a time/day preference or are you happy for us to set a time?

We can let her join, and it will bump the number of people in the upper group to 11... So if she joins and doesn't make the top group, she will push someone else into it.

Or she can "compete" like fredrick and richard, and just have someone give her the hands and see where she ends up. After all this is more for fun for forum members than anything else. I would be glad to host a table for her, but on the otherhand, i will not be available this weekend until late Sunday afternoon at the earliest.

Speaking as a member of the pair currently in 10th place: GREAT IDEA!

I think Saturday between 13 and 22 UK time or sunday between 10 and 22.

That would mean before 17 New York, before 14 Los Angeles.
