(#13) What if... scenarios are obviously only dreaming, but if you really wanted to make it as quickly as possible to GM then you should start with an open tournament that also has a lot of GMs playing in it.
Wouldn't the Director stop you by forcing you n2 a closed class ?

Can you really get n2 an open tournament playing against GM's w/out a good rating ?
