The Discraft Michigan State Championships on Sept. 5 and 6 has already drawn together a good number of Masters + players. The registration remains open for folks with berths through Aug.28. Pool A (pro) and Pool E (am) include the Masters+ divisions. They are well below the pool maximums at this point, so the opportunity for those without berths occurs via the Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ) event. That event is scheduled for Sept.4 (in PM), with pre-registration ending Sept.3 at 2pm. The need to actually play on Friday may be avoided where the combined number of Berth pre-registrations, LCQ pre-registrations and DAY-OF registrations is below the cap. Choosing to register for the LCQ, but not play it, depends on your calculation of the total pre-registrations for your pool, and some speculation about the number of day-of LCQ registrations that are likely to occur. A smaller margin below the pool max creates a greater risk that day-of LCQ registrations will edge a non-player out. (A non-player who has pre-registered would be given a score like "999". That could be the worst score, but still good enough, being under the cap.) PEOPLE WHO REGISTER FOR THE LCQ AND BELIEVE IT IS SAFE TO AVOID THE FRIDAY PLAY CAN FIND INFO ON THE EVENT PAGES AND SEEK THE ADVICE OF KEITH ATEN CONCERNING PREPAYMENTS FOR THE MAIN EVENT.
