[Deptheads] Website Events Schedule Question

[Strategicon Department Heads]

That is the big question. We can, in theory, abbreviate all the fields we have set values for. That still leaves the two necessary and typically long fields Title and System.

I’m hoping to experiment with mobile layouts this week.

Title being a eye catcher, system being important for people who enjoy and dislike certain systems, time is of course a given, duration so you can schedule a chain of concurrent events, #Players for those who may want to register as a group.  Maturity and experience are also useful but not 100% applicable.
