I think most people here encourage people running tournaments to post updates
all through the tourney. Tournaments are always more exciting that way (we
didn't find out the results of the FIDE WC after the thing was over. Instead we
got updates every day, often every move.).

Also, running a tournament is hard work, and is _much_ more rewarding if you
post the results throughout the tournament for other people to see and make
comments. More than half the fun of a tournament is that other people get to see
the fruits of your labors and share in your excitement as the tourney
progresses. :)
