Heya, we used to try and round up enough buyers and sellers to pull of 3x3 deals back in the day. Generally speaking, they weren't typically very successful when so many folks were scattered in so many different time zones, with such vastly different schedules.
However, I just thought I'd send out a few feelers to see if anyone else, buyers and sellers, would be interested in giving it a shot again....

As a former Minister of Tech from TDO, 3 x 3s are a PITA. I am convinced long deals are the way to go. 100%. All it takes is one of the six participants to have a RL delay or brain fart to mess up 6 people's slots. In a long deal, only 2 are affected. It was an absolute rarity that any matrix had more than one cycle go off without a hitch.
You would expect the delays to be due to the sellers. Typically young and new to the rules. But I found that the delays were about 50/50 buyers/sellers.
I will never participate in a 3x3 again if I can help it. My 2 cents.

I'm with Kif on this one and I have the t-shirt to prove it. Even the long term deals have either died out or you never see any tech. I'll keep looking though. Also, heading out to Dragon Con in ATL on Friday. Hoping for some real fun  |

I've been of the same mindset, but I'm keeping an eye out for a friend and ally who still likes the matrix setups. ;D
Also, awesome! We want pics, be sure to take plenty and share!
