Organizing matches takes time and consideration. The consideration is for all players involved. The sooner the match is scheduled the more free time you will generate.
Lets consider a player with limited free time playing in a foursome. It will almost be impossible to schedule, thus, everyone playing will lose out. Its my opinion one shouldn't sign up for any matches unless he/she is committed to getting them played in a timely manner. One also, should evaluate his / her free time in signing up for match play considering the availability of other players in different time zones. As much as everyone wants to participate it is important that all aspects be considered.
Any tournament will start off great, but will loose interest if the matches are not completed in a timely fashion.
