- At some point there is an egg. Then there is a chicken. I don't care where the egg is. It can be pre-registration. It can be through Bridgemates. It can be through an app. It can be the TD typing in your ACBL player names. There are lots of ...

- @Mike: There was pre-registration for the Bracketed Swiss on Saturday. I'll admit that even I wasn't aware of it! There were not many teams that signed up. Next year we need to do a better job of marketing the pre-sales option. The lines were too long on Sat ...

- @Greg: There were enough teams in the Bracketed Swiss on Saturday and Sunday that the bottom few brackets were effectively Gold Rush (i.e. players under 750).

- You can pre-register before the tournament(which some teams did, so I manually created the TID). Or, once you have entered an event, we know all the players, so we have a TID for you. The names (i.e. player numbers) are entered into ACBLscore or Bridgescore+. I want to ...

- D7 agreed to do pre-sales for the larger KOs, Mon-Fri. It was a little extra work for the director (thank McKenzie Myers for this). He made himself available when teams were reporting wins so that the losers could buy for the next day. Anyone who bought entries the day before ...

- Yes. 750 per player is 3000 per team. For that KO, Brackets 13, 14, 15 were all under 3,000. 4 teams had a player with > 750 MPs.

- The Tue-Wed Morning Swiss and Thu-Fri Morning Swiss were AX, BC and Gold Rush. A team with a low number of MPs could choose to play in the AX. Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri Eve also had loser AXY Swiss in the evening. Marty - you did not qualify to play ...

- Bridgescore+ started all the KOs, so I have the bracket breakdowns. The Fri GR Swiss Teams was actually a Thu-Fri morning Swiss. So 2 sessions of bridge. The Thu-Fri KO Bracket 13 (of 15) paid 15 MPs. 16 teams. Top masterpoint team was about 2,900 - so Gold Rush. Bracket ...
