Match recording ruling

"I was told about the old days when there would be 100 players still playing at 1 AM."

There was a major tournament at the Cal-Neva Lodge on Lake Tahoe in November 1980 where play STARTED at 1:30 AM! Because of bad weather, many flights into Reno and Tahoe were delayed. The tournament directors decided to wait several hours for late arriving players, and drawsheets weren't prepared until the directors felt that everyone had arrived who would arrive. The ironic part for me was getting a first round bye and not having to play until 10 or 11 AM (after waiting around for more than five hours).
