BD,
We have 2 possible formats mocked-up for MT2. Our preferred schedule
(let's call it schedule A) works well with the expected 44 teams, but
will be very poor for 43 teams since someone might only get 4 games (if
they play the drop-out team twice). There's no easy way to adjust it to
avoid the chance of that - not enough pitches.
Schedule B can cope better with a drop-out, but is generally not so nice
- some teams in pools of 5 playing lots of short games plus a crossover
on saturday, some games unavoidably rested v unrested, etc.
We'd like to use schedule A. So - if you have any doubts at all about
whether you can raise a team or will have to pull out, get in touch.
I'll write the actual schedule on wednesday probably. If I haven't heard
from you by then, and you later pull out, I take no responsibility for
the fact that some teams' tourney may be ruined. Schedules can take 8-10
hours to get right, and I'm not writing two of them every time. I'm just
lazy like that.
;-)
