Progressive vs. traditional Last Chance

last chance byes don't delay any tournament, they are over well before the first round gets played... ie they happen and cause some limited confusion but after 10 minutes they have been sorted out and have little or no further effect.

I am sure players would much rather play their last chance match on Friday or Saturday night when they bust out of the Consolation, as Gregg Cattanach describes.

Seems like Jeb Horton's bracket sheets are deomstrably better than the other available drawsheets, and tend to eliminate repeat matches against the same opponent. Poor Bill Davis had to play Neil Kazaross 3 times in Peoria. That tends to mess with a man's won lost %.

Kudos to Jeb and Gregg. Too bad Gregg opted out of directing, and we haven't seen him play in awhile either. Jeb has always been forthcoming with other directors also... Perhaps he would standardize and share his drawsheets with other ABT directors?

Does Patrick Gibson have access to them, Jeb? LA is coming up!
