In Response To: Bye Score and Bye Balance (Carlo Melzi)

I misunderstood the mechanics, you are right. And with entry fees equal each time, I believe this is in principle a fair system.

For some reason I still feel that it is overcomplicated, and that you'd better off just assigning byes randomly; things would even themselves out, as others also mentioned.

One potential problem is that your system may be to some extent open to gaming, but it depends also on the participants and local culture, I'd expect no problem in Milano.

BTW - any BG clubs closer to Laveno-Mombello?
