I have been involved in tournaments where the tournament director neglected the tournament. I will do no such thing.I do track comments and I do respond to messages. Due to my work schedule, I can not monitor each player in a tournament each day, so I depend on the contestants to advise me if they feel something needs to be addressed by the TD.
I am a stickler about keeping the ratings of contestants consistent with the tournament parameters.
Please bear in mind that as this is not an "official" tournament, the scripts will not place you in the appropriate groups, so if your rating changes, feel free to sign up in the correct category!
We look forward to seeing you in one of these tournaments!
