What happens if you play back-back matches during the round robin 3 matches?
Some teams at IE were rushing to get going again because of this.

For these matches we were supposed to take a formal field time out, but we didn't get clarification on this until after the event (we still gave essentially the same amount of time to the teams)- that being said, it's still a very tight turn-around. The tethering is somewhat addressed in the latest game update - with expressed permission from FTA or referee it is allowed.
