I ... only would like to say that the name of this tourney, Free4All (=Free
For All), mean that everybody (inventor or user) may enter if the game
chosen fulfil these three MINIMUM/FEW conditions:
1)must be playable,
2)have their rules posted online, and 
3)have at least 1 complete game score available.

Then I shall drop out of this tournament. I do not want to participate in a tournament that has such minimal quality control on its selection of variants. If it's the only way to get a good tournament going, I shall run one that uses nominations, screening and ranked ballot voting to select the variants played. I believe it is best to allow all participants to democratically select the games they will play in a tournament. Potlucks are more about compromise, agreeing to play games you're uninterested in just to get one of your more esoteric games played. I'm more interested in finding a consensus than I am in making compromises. So I shall bow out of any Free4All Potluck tournament.
