Thanks SoCal. Guess I am now off in hunt of Ohio written regulations. Layering the "local option" over a Code that is already difficult to interpret is daunting to me, who makes a living out of interpreting a very complicated federal code that also contains opt-out provisions.
So maybe there wouldn't actually be any ASA rule violation if there were an earlier closing date defined by the number of available fields. TDs could just choose whether to include that provision in their bids, I would think. (However, if a TD chose not to include such a provision but rather opted for closing entries much nearer in time to the start of the tournament, families would still get hurt by the lack of much notice regarding specific Friday play times).
