In Response To: Swiss format strategy (neilkaz)

Aside from the wacky bye situations and the "make it up as you go" playoff format, I am not keen on the idea that you have this skill rewarding format for qualifying for the playoffs, and then play short 9 point matches for all of the money rounds in ABT main event. I saw no reason why the schedule would not permit 11 point matches throughout the playoffs and 13 points for the finals.
