NOTES FOR TOURNAMENT DIRECTORS


Each week, rooms receive the current list of member ratings. Members are advised they will need 31 matches to be eligible for special NPL events.
Important details:
  • The win-loss totals for each player must be entered in the last column on the sign-up/results sheet. Use single-elimination format, and proof the win-loss total before mailing the form. Total wins must always be one less than the number of players, unless there were forfeits.
  • A forfeit or a bye is not scored as a win.
  • Buy-backs are treated as fresh entries. A player who buys back twice will be listed on three separate lines. For example, the same person might be listed on line 6 with a 1-1 record, again on line 17 with a 0-1 record, and again on line 31 with a 2-1 record.
  • Third-round byes: This "perk" illustrates the player's advantage of signing up early. If there are less than 32 players, there will be some third-round byes. If there are only twelve players, those who drew #1 through #4 will need only one win to advance to the final four, which means (in most cases) an extra five or ten dollars in prize money.
  • Do not fax tournament results.


Following the match handicaps provided on the Spot Sheet is extremely important. This system is designed to give every player a 50% chance of winning. It will only work if all tournament directors adhere to the handicaps. If you have any questions, please call me at 415/346-9140 or fax me at 415/346-9192, or e-mail me at lowleft@aol.com. Mornings between 9 and noon are best. The best of luck with your tournaments!
