In Response To: player travel distance for some US Midwest tourneys (Chuck Bower)

For the Pittsurgh tournaments I realized I misjudged some distances which had the effect of moving several players from 1-5 hours to > 5 hours.

Worth noting that TD's have actual addresses for most players so they could do a more accurate job of tallying these for their own tournaments, and possibly some already use this info to target their potential attendees.
