Jon,

I haven't read the rest of your email below the point relating to what I said, as I can't be bothered. However,

You said: If the TD had gotten this information out earlier we could have discussed it earlier.

The way seeding is determined is in the Tour Rules, which have been published on the website since this time last year. (Didn't this give you enough time to read them? You're clearly not a slow writer, so if you're a slow reader I'd suggest writing shorter emails so you can check you are not writing rubbish.) The relevant sections are below. <http://www.ukultimate.com/open/tour_rules.aspx>

"8. SEEDINGS

1. All seedings at any tournament are at the discretion of the DoC, UKUA CAC and UKUA.

2. For Tour 1 seedings will be based on the finishing positions of the previous Nationals, and for lower ranked teams, the previous overall Tour results.

4. New teams will be seeded by the discretion of the DoC. Geo-teams may be considered for seeding directly into the A tour, whereas non geo teams will have to start from the B tour. Teams may only be seeded directly into the A tour should there be vacancies due to mergers or folding teams over the close season."

I repeat, don't start critisising things now!!!!

Seriously though, the way seedings etc are worked out have been public for

ages, and this style of last minute critisism is ill-timed and reasonably pointless. If you have issues with the rules, raise them well in advance of Tour 1, so there is time for discussion, change and implementation. Seems sensible to me but I must admit a lack of the foresight displayed by

some of the previous correspondents.

You don't consider the day that the seedings are announced and the format
first released to be an appropriate time to have this discussion? If the TD
had gotten this information out earlier we could have discussed it earlier.
