'This year we had 81 participants. There were a couple of bumps in the road with pairings and byes, but other than that, everything went quite smoothly. Nevertheless, we did have a few long games and with Daylight Savings, it was close to 1:00 am when I got home Sunday morning, so even though I originally had good intentions, fourth round pairings did not get posted. Maybe next time.'
