(Poll) ATTN: Game of the Week Posting

I will do what I did last year again for 2009-2010 season with the regular season, WDA/EDC and State tournament, where I have a 'Week-to-Week' based thread. I'm looking for input as to what you guys want me to do for Game of the Week arrangement.
This is an example of the Game of the Week thread
1) Separate Week by Week thread and a Game of the Week thread, both posted in Hockey forum.
2) Combined Week by Week thread and Game of the Week thread, posted in Hockey forum.
3) Separate Week by Week thread and a Game of the Week for a EDC and a WDA matchup in their own respective forums. (This takes more work, games won't be in very much detail as they were last year. This means there will be an EDC and a WDA game of the week)
4) Week by Week thread, but no game of the week thread at all.

Voting is appreciated. Not guaranteed to follow the winning format but some input would be nice!
Thanks,
-HockeyHigh

Note: If you have no preference for the first two, I will combine their votes and take whichever had the most if it wins, so just pick your preference of either one.

Re: (Poll) How do you want the games to be listed?

Pinning this until I put up Week 1 in a couple of weeks. Would like a lot more feedback!

Who is picking the game of the week? Are you? No offense to you but I think we all know who you are cheering for. Not that it matters, but you may be more biased to put South up more often, when it would be nice to have a variety of teams. You get what I'm saying right?

I think you shouldn't be so biased and try to get more west region games as the games of the week. I know your probably from the east and it's understandable that you would rather have those as games of the week just cause hockey is more popular in the east than west. But there are a lot of west teams that have big rivalries almost every week. You should have a game of the week for both the east and west region. but thats just my opinion.

Yes, I am picking the game(s) of the week, but suggestions for good rivalries/high ranked matchups are plenty welcome. I know I am more biased towards certain teams, but you'll see probably the opposite of what you'd expect this year, as I'm predicting South on't do nearly as good as they did last year. I focus on picking the game on 6 things.
1) Rivalries
2) Rankings
3) Records
4) Region
5) Out-Of-State Match Ups
6) EDC/WDA rank determining games (near the end of the year)

As you saw in later threads, I put up multiple games of the week simply because a lot of this was occuring. South fit this the most common, but I do agree I could have added additional games that I didn't. This year I'd expect you'll be seeing a lot more of Central than any other team for Games of the Week, but I'll try to keep it more even.

If this gets supported by a good bit more, I will provide both an EDC and WDA thread, that's why I included the option. As I said before, even if it goes through as a combined thread or whatnot, giving me a heads up beyond me just looking through the schedule on big games is a good way to get a game elected for a Game of the Week. Feel free to message me.
