When you say no negotiations, does that mean no changes? What if the changes need to be made? For example: I worked a large tournament this summer where the positions were assigned all the way through prior to the start of the tournament. I worked the plate for one team's first three games and, if they kept winning (which they did), I would have had their next two games, one of which which would have been the final. We changed the rotation for the last two games.
