Tourney: UK Euros Qualifier 2011 (Sat April 16th)

I'm fairly sure that you cannot finish early with a round robin... it would require the random pairing of a team that can no longer "not qualify" (as they have X number of points already) to play a team that can no longer "qualify" (as they have 0 - or very little - number of points already), this isn't particularly likely.. but yeah, we can possibly skip a few games in rounds 10, 11 and 12, but "qualified" (or "not qualified") teams may still be required to play if they are drawn against a team that are still fighting in the mid table, etc.

As (in my mind) we won't be able to skip a substantial number of games, I just thought it would be easier to keep playing. You're not playing that often after all (each round lasts ~84 minutes).

Yeah, I thought I posted that. Only games that could be skipped would be those between clear qualifiers and non -qualifiers.
