I don’t have any first hand knowledge of that situation, but our chapter doesn’t try to have too many events on a row. People have other things to do on the weekends, so we try to not take up too much of the members’ time.

An example is that there’s plenty of NCAA basketball pools at work, but it didn’t work when we tried an NHL playoff pool since everyone lost interest because it lasted so long.

Perhaps try it over two weekends to see if that improves the event over a single day before moving to the 3-4 weekends.
