Well Everyone here is the report that everyone has been waiting for. I hope that I can meet everyone's ecpectations in this report............
A long time ago in West Springfield far away two men started an adventure to run a better tournament.................
It was a Hot and humid morning in West Side Mass we arrive at the elks lodge around 9 am and there is already two players waiting to get in!! So we get in and look at the room that we will be holding the event in and it was so hot in there that I started to sweat just thinking about the rest of the day. Well fast forward to tournament time, We ended up with 82 entries in all not bad considering the fact that we had never done anything outside of the store. We started round one a little late just to make sure that everyone had gotten their deck reg in and we were all set to go.
Round one passed with no problems and the same went for round two then Round three came......... and I had a player that Had been dropped and then wanted to get back in so I went and looked and noticed that he was dropped in error and had him play the Bye,BUT WAIT THERE"S MORE the bye then scoops to him!!!! All the while Chris K and myself were getting the parings put back in by hand( THANKS AGAIN Chris K) and after that mess was taken care of the kid that was dropped in error tells me that he wants to drop, Thus creating a issue with the parings in the next round and they had to be repaired 3x!!!! SORRY EVERYONE FOR THAT!!
Well that fiasco was taken care of a few minutes to correrct we got on with thr rounds......
