You get those gp points only if you win the tournament, or just for attending?
You have to have a good tournament to get points.

Okay, that makes sense.
What about these two lines?
$$1,100 b/40, 2 sections
Rds.: 1-6, 10-3. Half-pt. bye any one rd., notice before rd. 2. Entries: SACC
$$1,100 b/40, 2 sections= Prize Fund $1100 based on 40 entries, tournament divided into 2 sections
Rds.: 1-6, 10-3. Half-pt. bye any one rd., notice before rd. 2. Entries: SACC= rounds take place 1 pm then 6 pm first day, then 10 am and 3 pm the second day/ you can request a half-point bye (unplayed round you get .5 points for) if you notify the td of your wish to do so before round 2
Can anyone break this down for me? I'm a bit confused... also, what is GPP: 30, GPP: 80, etc
