@AndrewSmith: If I'm not mistaken, @martinhind3 is talking about an U800 Qualifier group, a division with clubs without a match history, which would have allowed placing them in a regular division ... and all this in a very first U800 tournament:

In three of four matches, their opponents didn't send and report a challenge and in the last match they only one player. So we're talking about one match with four registered from Inverness Chess Club, which did not start.
Looks like Inverness will win their group without a piece being moved. Sad for the players not to be able to get an introduction to match play. It shows how poorly many clubs are run. 😕
