Guys, in the interest of full disclosure, I need to tell everyone involved with the tourney that I have purchased a seat at the final table. I am buying Kirk Belch's seat. We have been talking for a few days now and I finally agreed to his price this morning.
Not that it makes a difference - most of you are probably licking your chops right now at the thought of getting a piece of the most predictable playing low-roller on the internet - but if it were anyone else I would be relaying the information right away and I wanted to make sure I do this the fair way and be consistent among all circumstances. So there you go.
I guess this also means that the two spots I have reserved on the final day are now empty. If anyone wants those seats, email me, because I don't need them anymore.
Shuffle up and deal!
So, a few things...
1) Did you 2 agree that he keeps his 1.0% of the winnings, or did you 'buy' that too?
2) Who's playing the part of a second set of eyes as it pertains to the next blind structure (since there's now a conflict of interest)

Well, all four of us here have jointly devised the rules. I have done most of the work, but Fro, Junell, and Morris all have inputs.
But I guess you are right that it might not work for me to write myself an extra stack of chips... you caught me!

To the forefathers: I think sneaking in another blind level or 2 to smooth things out benefits fairness too.
Suggestion...double the time limits and add levels after level 3 and after level 7 to ease the transition.
2 cents

I have discussed the blind structure at length. Although I can't play in the tournament, I will play a role in determining the ultimate blind structures. I can assure you that the tournament will last sufficiently long to ensure a fair game to everyone. It won't be quick like the first round supers.
