Clarify Calendar

The EC acted to make the constitution consistent with
the tournament calendar.
The constitution does not allow tournaments to count for points before the third Friday of September. This Fall, the "traditional" season opener weekend comes lands on the second Friday of the month.
The EC voted unanimously to allow tournaments held on that weekend to count for points. The rationale was that it did not extend the tournament season, but merely clarified existing travel practice to compete on that weekend. The 2nd Friday is an artifact of the calendar, not the tournament season.
