Derby City Newbie (be gentle)

Weaker field than before. Less than half the field are 800; only 7x800

Will be curious to see who all else even shows up.

someone in another thread mention DCC and TS not being WNT events. i think field strength, and in DCC's case the buyback, are why. i've been told by fairly reliable source that MR as never been a fan of the buyback. DCC and TS are both basically pro-ams. In TS's case much more am than pro. IMO neither will be WNT events anytime soon.

I think neither event uses the rules that the WNT uses.

Only difference is where the 1/9 go, right? I'm sure this figures in but i do know that MR has never liked the buyback deal. TS is just a bigger regional event, i don't think Zuglan cares to be WNT affiliated.

There are several other differences.

There are several other differences.

Like what? Is this a state secret? Still don't believe that the rules are the overriding reason MR is not involved.
