I am in full agreement with Bill concerning Garvin Gray. Garvin tries to do unauthorised and ridiculous things as a DOP, like that time he tried giving me a half point bye despite me being a top seed and only being 5 minutes late, and having pre-regisiered. I even showed Garvin the rule where he couldn't do this, and he then ignored that rule and tried doing it anyway.

Ian Murray had to give Garvin Gray on the job training and teach Garvin that this type of thing cannot be done, but Garvin still had difficulty learning how to apply the rules of chess fairly in that instance.
