What about 2 divisions for DCC 1 P....

[Duane Remick]

Reading about the new rules for 1P @ DCC,
Maybe 2 divisions, Pros playing pros, up and comers playing each other
let the players play towards the end of each division,
Let the last 16 or so in each division , Then compete with each other into the final????
"just a consideration"

great idea but since there's no 1p rating system splitting the field would be kinda tough. the truth is even with the rule changes the same cast of characters are gonna be there at the end. not that many games end-up in a Varner-esque 'wedge-a-thon'.

The problem is that if they have 400 players there are about 750 matches to play because it takes two losses to eliminate a player. (Some don't buy back.)

The total number of matches is the same for one or two divisions.

The reason the up and comers play is to play against the pros imo. If they were in a separate bracket my guess is many wouldn’t play.
