Bad Day at Black Rock

The third week of the March Swiss saw the wheels come off the track a bit on the TD's end. I did receive notice well in advance that several players had requested byes for the week of spring break and managed to forget by the time I went to make the pairings. Then in re-pairing "on the fly" without computer assistance or even a set of pairing cards ran into some additional snafus. All  said, we are still on track for a successful fourth and final round without this greatly affecting prize distribution (since there are no prizes). Hopefully, everyone enjoyed their games.
