Mike,
I ran a tournament a month ago and it’s saying there are major problems with it being submitted. I had it on a disk I sent a friend, and he sent it off, but i couldn’t find an email contact since it wasn’t done online.
If you are listed as the chief TD, you should be able to view the validation report online through TD/A, even if the rating report was mailed to the USCF. (The list of pending events is at the bottom of the ‘Upload/Enter’ page.)
Likewise, the affiliate should be able to view the validation report for all pending tournaments submitted under that affiliate ID using the TD/A ‘Tournament Status List’ tool.
