Wrong. Well, I suppose you could write a code to check every member to see if their rating is artifically low, and to check each and every tournament to see if it's ready to progress, or give a few people the power to respond to player requests that a player or specific round be looked at.

I am way too busy right now to implement the change, but as soon as I get a few clear days, I will make sure this is looked at. It should have been done years ago, to be honest.

Actually the coding would be really simple. You only need to check for tournament completion when a tournament game finishes. Easy. Also, the checks on whether people were suitable for entrance to a banded tournament only need to be checked when they attempt to enter. There is already a check there anyway (is rating within band?).

Please don't tell people that something is hard or impossible and that they are wrong when you haven't coded a Hello World in your life.

What is the programmable criteria if a persons rating is artifically low?
Will a person with an artifically low rating be able to join a banded tournament at all?
