Paul, 
You seem to have missed Sammy's point completely. The 1v2 is a crunch game,
and therefore players should be allowed time and games to warm up so that
the result better reflects the skills of the teams rather than whose bus
got there first and who was less hungover. Sammy's other point about saving
the most important games 'til later for suspense and excitement is also a
very good point.

If your only response to these good points is:

>all cylinders, and then *lose*, it could prove most fascinating.

Then I just hope to hell you aren't organising the outdoor nationals! 

Those 2 points have dictated the way most disc tournaments (and all
important ones) and tournaments in alot of other sports have been run for
along time. 

Scotland knows better huh? And I didn't mean you Scott.


Weren't you expecting my oar?

Roger
