In order to preclude ambiguity in future tournament announcements I propose the following check list be used for all future tournaments.
Name and date of Tournament
Exact Location of Tournament
Name and contact information of Tournament Director
Entry fees and acceptable forms of payment (advanced registration and on site registration)
Post mark date (no later than) for advanced registration
Time of on site registration
Time of First Round and approximate times of subsequent rounds Game time limits to include delays/increments
Section Information; to include minimum number of participants
Prize information to include Section Winners and individual Class Prizes with the following caveats: Only one prize awarded per individual (not counting biggest upset if afforded); Minimum participants needed (per class) to award Class Prizes
Number of entrants necessary to guarantee prize fund
Tie break system to be used (and order of use)
Lunch Break (specify or declare it to be a player responsibility)
Free entry to all Masters (specify is fees will be deducted from winnings)
Players Equipment responsibilities to include: sets; clocks; pen/pencil ; paper or allowable recording devices
Cell phone warnings
Cover our butt caveat : all Changes/Additions to announced times and prizes will be posted prior to the First Round (time permitting) and no later than prior to the beginning of the Second Round
Please review for completeness and feel free to add any comments you may have.
