It does require a person, but I don't really see this a problem. Literally anyone can do this plus they get a pretty good view of the matches. I had two students switching out during the event and it was never an issue. If you want to do some of the nicer things, like instant match uploads or match replays you will need a person anyway. We also had alliance selection results to the side of the screen and were able to quickly make gone to lunch or other graphics as needed. All of this needs to have a person working the laptop.

I'm sure there is someone to talk to, but I'm not sure who. I know Clinton and I have both spoken to Frank about it, not really sure what the progress is.
