Hi Gian-Carlo, > They drew a lot to determine the color sequence. 50% chance it had been > exactly the other way around. well, that's why I think a single round robin is more stupid then swiss... of course it can happen there too, but it is more unlikely... Of course they had no other option when they want eleven rounds with 12 participants... maybe one should rethink why it is such a low number - it would have been even just 10 when they did not ask The Baron and The Crazy Bishop to send there program. I think they were forced to do so because they garantee 11 rounds. I hope we will see more participants in Torino, maybe they take a look how it was done in Mainz, free hotel is definitely something that lowers the cost of the tournament by a lot. Of course it must not be something like the Hilton, already something like the "Südhotel" in Paderborn would absolutely sufficent. I think price money is not needed, else we might see something like Toga III, Toga IV, Toga V etc... Greets, Thomas
