Re: Are 8 play regional reasonable?

Understand now?
I'm fully aware of how math works. You can obviously do it too. So remind me again what your objection to posting "we only commit to 8 matches at this event" is? [1] since APPARENTLY that's a fairly easy number to compute given estimated field turn times (provided by first) and number of teams (provided by venue) I'm not seeing an issue.

As for "well 12x40 is less than 12x60" no duh. But it's not much less than 10x60, at least that's a more reasonable number of matches and you have a day and a half to get through them. Of course, I still stand by that it's a better team experience to play more matches in a smaller venue but we clearly have different views on that.



[1] other than the obvious of "it's crappy to only get 8 matches" and the fact that it'd be open and honest communication with teams.
