Tournament draws

Post by Wizard »

Not sure you can code this one but not for the first time I have "byed" through to the final and waiting to see who I play while the other half of the draw has 4 out of 7 players playing off to see who gets to play me.

In essence 7 players signed up for the tourney. 5 of them showed up (including me) and 4 of them are on the opposite side of the draw to me. Hence, I am now waiting best part of an hour to see who gets to wipe me out in the final if they are lucky enough to do that. I would have preferred to at least get a warmup match.

Is there a way to make the draw at least recognise who is present when it starts and split it more fairly?
I don't feel good about making the final without firing a shot and then I eventually get an opponent that had the advantage of having at least played a frame or two before they had to play the final.

Just adding to this the players on table 1 have now finished 55 minutes in and we're waiting for the players on table 2 to finish their match then wait for the result of that one before my final opponent is decided. No names but one of those on table 2 makes Peter Ebdon look fast> I think you all know who I mean.
