RSVPing to a tournament

Going / maybe / can't go — what each means for your seat.

RSVPing is your way of telling the director whether to count you in. It's not binding — you can still play if you show up — but it helps plan tables and chip sets.

•Going: counts you toward the expected field. Director plans seats for you.
•Maybe: you're a possible. Director prepares but won't hold a seat.
•Can't go: you're out. You can still change your mind up to check-in.

Update your RSVP as soon as you know. A late "can't go" still helps more than silence.
