I'm not even going to try... I can't make concrete plans that far out and I forgot when scheduling my vacation time for this next year here at work...awesome. >=-(

I do have a question though... the old 2014 rules on the papa site has division restrictions on it. How the heck does that work in a big round robin/swiss/whatever Pinburgh is thing? Like for instance I would be restricted to C+ at the moment. How is that handled on Thurs when seeding is being determined in the first place? If for some god forsaken reason I qualified lower than C would I be automagically bumped up to C for Saturday or what? The people that are restricted to A, what is the deal with them? Are they just playing "spoiler" all day friday for everyone else that's not A restricted? lol.. =|

OP
Quoted from bkerins:
Players' records carry over from Day 1 into Day 2 except in the lowest division, D. That means that every game counts for everybody else, including the A players.
An A player who performs poorly on Day 1 will dig themselves a huge hole for Day 2, but won't be allowed to play in B or C or D no matter what. In your case, as a C-restricted player, if you played poorly enough to fall into D (roughly a 25-35 record, give or take), you'd be forced into C anyway and carry your Day 1 record.
Initial seeding is based on WPPR rank, with all players forming 4-player groups. As each day goes by, the "width" of each group narrows. For example, in Round 1 you would see #1 play #350, #351, and #700; in Round 5 you would see #1 play #8, #9, and #16.
Hope this helps and let me know what other questions you have. Pinburgh 2015 is nearly, but not quite, sold out.

Actually, this makes perfect sense. I was REALLY tired yesterday.
