Layouts have been posted on the event page, but it should be noted that they are subject to changes. Depending on the size of the player fields for MPO, MP40, and MA1, those divisions may switch to the white layout. Updates will be posted. Oct 14

Can we please make a decision on this today. There have already been a lot of changes to this tournament and dont understand why there would be any more considering mpo can play in the same card as ma1 and there is enough people in mp40 to play whatever layout is needed.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback — I should have been more clear in my original post. The plan is to keep MPO, MP40, and MA1 on the Blue layout at Dragonfly, as listed. The only reason that could change would be if the number of players in the Pro pool drops significantly — and even then, the goal would just be to make sure there are enough players on the same layout for round ratings to remain accurate.
Dennis, I think I understand what you’re getting at, but just to clarify — divisions don’t directly “score against” each other in PDGA events. Layout grouping only affects round ratings, and having more players on the same layout generally makes those ratings more consistent and fair. That’s the main factor I’m considering here.
Eliot Grear Oct 16Dennis have you never played a tournament where everyone plays the same layout before ????
