>So if Clapham 2 dropped out then why did Clapham 1 get seeded 1st for tour
4?
And should we penalise LeedsLeedsLeeds more points for getting more of the
seedings wrong? ;-) 

Seriously now, I assume common sense dictated that aspect of the seeding.
Clapham 2 finished above Clapham 1 at Southampton for 2 reasons: we'd paid
some attention to the teams Aram had picked (and err, the rather stacked
Clapham 2 which he himself was playing on), we'd murmured to him but hadn't
pushed our point; and secondly Clapham 1 was weakened on the day by injuries
to two or three of the better players.

In retrospect the Tour rules probably need some kind of amendment to cope
with that kind of freak occurrence (along the lines of 'if geo teams have
two teams the first team always takes the seeding of the higher placed team
in the previous event'), but common sense was an adequate substitute in this
case.

You're right though that Tour rules appear to have been broken. Noone said
anything as at the time it seemed the eminently sensible thing to do. In any
case, we were completely passive subjects of the seeding and I hope it's not
us who gets caned with more penalty points!

I think what Jamie meant was that the results for tour 3 were

Clapham 2
Druids
Chevy
Clapham 1

So if Clapham 2 dropped out then why did Clapham 1 get seeded 1st for tour
4?
