bobwhoosta: Actually, unless Fencer changed it since he made it so many can join tournaments,
For 1 game per 2 players - it just checks for 5 free game slots (no matter if you only need 3 - or need 10)
For 2 games per 2 players - it just checks for 10 free game slots (no matter if you only need 6 - or need 18)
Again, that is how it use to be.... and I don't remember ever hearing that it changed.
(and of course if you have 10 slots free and 18 games start, you will be 8 games over your limit - which you can play & finish all of them - but can't start anything new until back under the 20 game limit)
If the maximum number of players per section is 10 in a tournament, and each 2 player pair plays 2 games, one black and one white, does that mean I need 18 available slots in order to be fully confident in playing the tournament???
