A few days ago I read Sarge’s post on the horror of registering for a tournament and then life’s wheels take you down the road. When you get back you have lost not only the entry chips, in his and my case, of hundreds of thousands of chips, but also a game is credited as being played when in fact no game was played at all. It was precisely NOT PLAYED.
I am not asking for the chips back. I understand that the rule on that is fair and for good reason. But the people who lose out when you count a game that they didn’t play, it hurts an entire month’s effort.
This is especially problematic when there are contenders for leadership points.
If you don’t physically play you should not be charged with playing.
