Apologies if this is answered elsewhere, but I haven't managed to find it if it has.
I have on a number of occasions, and nearly once a week now, been in a position where it would be ideal to add a table during the first round.
The circumstances typically revolve around the types of issues being discussed in the +allavail+ thread, where a pair(s) who have registered do not get placed at a table when the game starts.
This is a virtual club scenario with restricted entry, so I get a telephone call immediately saying they registered and are not playing, when there is a half table this is not a problem as I can invite them in immediately. But when there isn't a half table I have to be apologetic and say there is nothing I can do!
Is there anything I can do?
The fact that I get a phone call almost immediately means there would be time to add a table during the first round. I am using Barometer movements which should make it even easier to insert a table.
Regards John.

It's not possible to add a table after the game started.

But your tourney would simply not start if the pair was registered and not available. I don't see how they could be left out of you used +allavail+

On a related question, is there any way to change the total number of boards, or the number of boards per round once the tournament starts?
