One comment on the observer shortage, some tournaments end up not having an observer budget. For example, one of the upcoming regionals has a budget of $400 for observers (and isn't in a major ultimate hub). That doesn't even cover one flight, so there will be no observers at that event. TD wants to keep costs down, so observer budget is one of the first to get cut.

If tournaments don't put a budget, observers can't show up. It is tiring to get paid $0 to lose a weekend to work for others. And most observers are declining working tournaments at a loss.
