The low registration fee combined with the free dinner would more than offset the fewer matches, but having below 5ish qualification matches would be a tough trade off though.
If we went to a Saturday only event, we'd likely run it similar to how R2OC ran theirs - just go later in the day and try to give teams at least 8 qualification matches.
