One more question (sorry there is so many this time),

But if I play 196 points during the 200 pt portion, can I add 100pt Revan and Cad Bane (54 pts) to my squad for the last round? Or is it a hard 150 worth of new character points for that final add?

It's a hard 150pts for the final round. The only rounds you can bank up to 10 points in are going from round 1-2 and 2-3

Ok. Thanks for the clarification. I think I have my squads almost ready to send over

Looks like I have almost everyone's squad. Still need to get TJ's and we should all be set to go. Tomorrow evening at midnight is the deadline to submit the 100pt squad. Looking forward to the start of the tournament!

I have all the squads from everyone and posted them on the separate forum. I wanted to check with everyone on what kind of pairing we should do. Swiss can be a bit hectic with 8 games and will most likely have people playing against each other more than 1 time in the 8 rounds. So I wanted to leave this up to you all if you would prefer swiss or round robin. Thankfully we have 10 players and no bye's for anyone. We did round robin last time for GE and it worked out really well, but we have a couple more players this time, so i wasn't sure if that would be what we'd go with.

If we did round robin here is what it would look like:

Round 1: 2 games at 100pt
Round 2: 2 games at 150pt
Round 3: 2 games at 200pt
Round 4: 3 games at 350pt.

This would be 9 games total compared to the 8 that we would have in Swiss format. Everyone would get to play 1 game against each other player and it would be easier to track. We would cut to a top 4 at the end of round 4 for playoffs and that would be 1st vs 4th, 2nd vs 3rd. winner of each matchup would then go to final game and be the overall winner.

The app I have for swiss tournament pairings doesn't allow for 1pt losses to be counted, so its a little concerning that things could be more difficult to pair using this. I can try and figure out how to do it by hand if needed.

Please let me know what you all would like to do for this as I'm ok with either way.

Round robin works the best and there's always room for more minis.
