IAPTE Question

[Furby]

As most of you know, I along with my business partners are going to be putting on a major tournement in the Tampa area next year (check out www.iapte.com for details) and amongst other things, we're debating about sandbagging. Some of the guys say go on the honor system, while others are saying that something needs to be in place, because it's expected these days.

So anyways, we're kicking around the idea of using Chris Raehl's APPA system (www.paintball-players.org) or perhaps the NPPL's system if we become NPPL certified. This year's Bunkerfest used the APPA system, and Mondo was pretty happy with it...in addition to the semi-effective anti-sandbagging features, it does other things that makes the promoter's life easier.

So, what do you guys think? Should we rely on the honor system, or institute some sort of program?

Well sick of the threads continuiously coming up about sandbaggin so i think it would be a good idea that there is a system in place to have a players register it has been grying out for one in years and maybe eventually it will go global and not just restricted to seperate events.
We had the PA league over here that used a system like this and it did help make each division alot fairer but also could be improve upon as some teams were put in the wrong divisions due to the teams entering certain other events events and some teams having players register from better teams and then not take part so these teams had to play in higher divisions because of these players being on the rosta at the beginning of the league.
A individual player register would be a good step forward and help control teams bring in better players from other teams at different events.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do and with your tournament may even see you there
