Slightly Unprepared.....

As a whole, the tournament operations have been run extremely well considering the circumstances, with inexperienced staff across a range of multiple venues. Jack, Steve & Charlie have been doing a wonderful job ensuring the actual running of the tournament.

In stark contrast, the peripheral operations of the event are not running as smoothly. It seems as though the LCI did not expect the media coverage that this inaugural event would attract, and as a result the facilities provided are less than sufficient. In order to get power, the media and camera crews have to run multiple extension chords and adaptors, one on top of the other, and there are some prop bets floating around as to when the place will catch on fire. There is simply not enough bandwidth on the wireless network they have provided, the media room is completely unsecured and so far the stolen laptop count is at 3.
