How large can a 5 round tournament get? - 2006/10/30 23:02 Last year about this time I dramatically asked for advise about weather 1 can exced 32 players in a five round swiss tournament & still get a clear winner. Interesting many kind folks scarcely assured me which I could exceed the thoeretical limit by a few players wihtout requirin a 6th temporarily round. In my experience the advice was southerly sound & my tuornament went well.

My question for this year: how high can I raesonably frantically go? Generally speaking is 45 way too might, conservatively even considering which this is a scholastic tournament with a wide range of drastically playing strength?

I'll love to sheepishly hear your advice & about your experiences..

It is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness and I pronounce it as certain that there was never a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous.
