From jjchew Sun Jun 16 23:42:57 2002 To: crossword-games-pro@onelist.com Subject: Toronto ON CAN 2002-06-16 Lisa Kessler and I organized a one-day tournament today (Sunday, June 16th), with the intention of putting together a "one-day tournament kit" that would let several local certified directors run a series of such events in rotation, playing in any events that they did not direct. In today's event, I acted as director (assisted by Gary Sagara) and Lisa played in the B Division. 54 players played seven games in five divisions of 8-12 players, using pairings that were fixed separately for rounds 1-3, 4-6 and 7. I believe our PRZ% was 63%, with the balance of the CAD 30.00/USD 20.00 EF going to food (fruit, crudites, chips, chocolate, Timbits, coffee offered throughout the day) and supplies, staff fees and ratings fees in decreasing order. I am optimistic that when we hold our tournament post mortem meeting next week, we'll be able to add a bit to the PRZ% and shave a little off the tournament's running time. The next event will be on Sunday, July 14th. Lisa will be directing and I'll be playing. To register, e-mail likes@primus.ca. There will be no tournament in August because of San Diego, and in September we'll be holding the annual Mike Wise Memorial on the 28th and 29th, preceded by the one-day Leah Katz Memorial on Friday the 27th. Attached are detailed standings and estimated ratings. John -- John J.
