[SBU Board] Round Robin Complications - Suggestions?

[Eric Sieg]

Hi all,

Shooting to board and some others who might have ideas because they know 
people :)

I had a complication come up today. I had a B team lined up for a round 
robin of two pairs who were looking for teammates and were happy to play 
with each other. A few days ago (well after Round Robin signups ended), 
one pair informed me they wanted to play with a different pair. When we 
talked they said they were fine running it as a 6 bagger, which didn't 
seem like a problem.

Today they informed me that they weren't okay with a 6 person team and 
were going to be a 4 person team with the new pair instead, which leaves 
the other pair who did nothing wrong on their own without a team.

None of the remaining teams in B that are at 4 had expressed interest in 
more than 4 when I talked to them, so the best solution would seem to be 
finding another pair to make a new team. However, I'm not sure who else 
to reach out to at this point. Building the existing 24 teams exhausted 
pretty much all my ideas of people who might play or be otherwise 
interested in the Round Robin.

However, while I know a lot more people than I did two years ago, there 
are still many that I don't know very well who could easily be 
interested. Does anyone have recommendations on people to reach out to 
or other partnerships that might be interested?

As an FYI, here's the spreadsheet of current teams along with some names 
of people I've reached out to previously as part of the build process:

Thanks for any help/suggestions/etc! :)
