[SBU Board] Sweetheart Sectional Flyer - for review

[Tim White]

Thanks JC,

Agree -- we should definitely change second session Saturday to 3:30.

Also agree with re-wording to "every board matters."

Re, the note about players with under 20 masterpoints play free.  Yes, we agreed to this at the recent board meeting, however some of us were discussing it with Nick yesterday at NSC.  He was surprised and alerted us that in 199er games at open tournaments his recollection is that on the order of 80% of the players have under 20 points.  That's a lot of entry fees.  Going to free plays for <20 points without qualification would make it hard to withdraw it later; the idea arose of calling it a "special" for this tournament and then seeing it's effects.  I'd like to hear John W's assessment of the potential long term financial impact of making the change permanent.

Tim
