Scottish Championship 2018
#1
The entry forms are now out. 

Byes : " Players wishing a bye must request it on the entry form.In the unlikely event of a player asking for a bye after round 2 then it will not count towards any Championship title."

This is unfair. All rounds of the tournament must be treated equally. Half-point byes must be available in every round if requested in advance.

Many players have family commitments and cannot play all nine rounds. This could be any round, not just rounds 1 & 2.

Some players have to prepare for the Glorney Cup and may wish byes in rounds 8 or 9. It's no wonder that the Glorney team are unsuccessful every year and now have had the debacle of the Spens and Rosebowl. Alex, we are spending £6,000 on the Glorney. Players need time to prepare. I need to give them motivational team talks to lift their spirits which are currently at rock bottom.

Finally, the Scottish Champion has made the Olympiad team, so the title is worth achieving. Let's make it fair for all competitors.
