Another frigging delay, rather than increment, tournament. Yuck.
Y do u favor increment Mr. Rhine?
I do not understand this late change. It is messing up a lot of players and other tournaments (who originally planned around this one).
Just looked at the September CL and noticed the OLD date was in the magazine. Please let your friends know about the date change: it would not be good to have people showing up on the wrong weekend, especially out-of-towners!
Explanation from a reliable source:
"The Midwest Class was changed because the new date is the actual date of the hotel contract. Bill G. messed up."
Ouch.
Bill Goichberg has been organizing events for something like 50 years. Let's cut him some slack; we expect him not to make a similar error until 2063.
