Michael,

Unfortunately, I cannot speak to this exact event - I havent attended it myself. However as to organizers participating, technically, there is nothing wrong with it. Most typically, draws are made publicly, and in the presence of witnesses, so the awarding of byes etc is not by name, but by process.

For any directorial decisions, if the director is playing, then a committee would be convened and decisions would be made by them.

So, to address your concerns to the organizer playing - its fine. You can always ask to be present for draws etc if you are worried about it. In practical terms, its extremely difficult for an organizer to play, and I am surprised that anyone would try to be honest. The demands on the director are really high.

Source: I am a director.
