I feel bad about what happened. Therefore, I am proposing the following compromise:
ReplyDeleteThey can play each other in the 2nd round. This game can take place any time in the
next week or so at B&N or some other agreed upon place. I will be there. The winner of the game gets a half point. The loser gets 0 points. A draw is worth nothing.
In either case, I am willing to pair Don and Ken in the 3rd round (but not necessarily to each other), if that is what they want.
I hope this compromise will make people feel better about the situation and that Ken and Don will be in the tournament for Round 3.
