There were spots open for FPO since registration was open, but the spots were not filled, so I had to give them to players in other divisions. We hope to accommodate for as many divisions and players as possible, but at some point we can't reserve spots for divisions that are not filling.
That is a reasonable action when a division isn't filling, but it would have been nice if a few of those spots could have been reallocated to FA1. I'm sure you can see how we think 8 womens spots available out of 180 tournament spots is a bit slim (especially since other, much larger divisions may not be full).
