"After posting, I remembered
the format used at last year's NAQT nationals. I
believe they had Swiss pairs for the regular rounds of
the tournament. Afterwards, there were a couple "pro
bowlers tour" rounds where teams could improve their
position by challenging the team above them. Then finally
there was a 2/3 between #1 and #2."
And I
remember I found that system, at least the "pro-bowling"
segment, extremely annoying, given its ability to leave a
team locked in a three round circle of knifing with
the team directly above them. Ick.
