I find the SBE amateur eligibility so frustrating. One semi deep run with a soft draw in the derby, turning stone etc and you are excluded for life. Meanwhile there are players who don't play those events and get overlooked in the "known ability" and get the play the amateur event. I am looking through the brackets for the event now and see MANY players that I would need a good spot from and are 30+ fargo points higher yet because I had a decent draw in one tourney (DCC banks) I am screwed if I want to play in this tourney for life.
I spoke with Allen a couple years ago about it and when I brought up many people playing in the tourney are much higher fargo he snapped and said fargo don't mean shit. While I agree to a certain extent, I think it is a much more fair way than 1 random tourney finish.

No huge deal and good for those players who get to play. Just so frustrating and wanted to rant
