Another Rule change Proposal/idea

In Response To: Another Rule change Proposal/idea (Phil Simborg)

Is there a rule against seeding in the ABT and in other organizations or can this be left up to the tournament director?

I'm not aware of any such rule. If a TD plans to do seeding, it would be a good idea to mention it in the tournament flier.

A reason TDs may be reluctant to seed top players is that there will inevitably be players not seeded who feel they are just as good as some seeded players. This could lead to hurt feelings or complaints to the director.

Colin makes a good point too, that seeding should not alter a player's (seeded or not) chance of getting a bye.
