In Response To: Dealing with sandbaggers (Timothy Chow)

While in theory maybe there are players that are unknown and how can you determine if they should be able to enter or not? Well, backgammon is a tight nit community and everyone who is good enough to play in the Masters and not in the Limited is known.

There are tons of people who enter the Championship divisions who should be allowed to play in the Limited. When I started playing tourney bg I entered into the Championship division because I felt it was the best way to get better. Should my direct entry into it force me out of the Limited JP event if I wanted to enter it? I don't think so.

How to determine everyone's PR on a case by case basis...have me on speed dial I guess.
