In Response To: Dealing with sandbaggers (Jason Lee)

I don't think *anybody* should ever be asked to play lower than what they want to.

If your point is that when I sign up for an event that is not full yet and pay my entry fee, then I should be assured that I get to play in that event, then I kinda see your point.

But if you're saying that there should never be events restricted to top players, then I don't agree. Why not?

Imagine a situation where a super-rich person wanted to enter a championship tournament, but they were so lousy that they had no chance at all to win a match against anybody. Is it "fair" that somebody is going to get a bye?

I don't understand. The point of restricting the Super JP to 32 players is to avoid having byes.
