side events

With respect to tournament delays caused by players in multiple events, I feel that the director and the players need to share responsibility for avoiding these problems. The director should have walked through the schedule sufficiently to see that events will finish on time in the absence of problems beyond the control of the director. Players need to avoid entering so many things that they cause problems. I'll suggest the following idea as a starting point for discussion of a possible solution to scheduling conflicts.
Directors will accommodate players who are alive in the main event and one side event. If it happens that a player is alive in two or more side events and in the sole discretion of the director it is determined that the player's status is causing scheduling problems, the player will choose which side event to forfeit. Entry fees will not be returned. The policy will be announced, explained and enforced. It will not matter if the player has been waiting for a long time due to someone else's delays. Enter an extra side event at your own risk.
If anyone feels there is merit to this concept, please suggest improvements.
