Players outside posted range

I'd like to hear from some Tournament Directors as to what they do when someone enters a tournament with a stated ratings range and the entrant is outside that range. For example, tourney is for players between 1600 and 1800. Player X enters with a 1780 rating and then right before the start, his rating goes up to 1825. Do you still let him play? He could be under 1800 again after his next concluded game. I've seen some tourneys post that anyone outside the posted limits will be removed before the start of the tourney but in my example there was no such notice.

uh i bet it just depends on what rules the tourny director implements

Maybe it would be better if all the member tournaments filtered out any players outside of the rating range at the start of the tournament. That should be easy to implement for the staff if people agreed it was a good idea. The players automatically removed from the tournament would not necessarily need to be entered into a different tournament according to their rating, unlike the official tournaments.

In answer to your question, I don't bother removing people for moving outside of the rating range in my tournaments. Although I understand others doing differently in the pursuit of a 'fair' tournament. I would have no problem myself if I were to be removed from a tournament for no longer matching the ratings criteria.

Not normally, but I usually check out everybody that joins my tournaments to make sure their current ratings are "legit" and not going to change too much more than they already have. But if said person with an 1825 rating has won all of their games since joining chess.com then I might remove them, since their rating is obviously prone to go up even more, or if their highest rating is say 1950 and they have just had a losing streak lately.

That was the way it used to be. Smaller tournaments were markedly affected when players were automatically removed, without warning, at the start. Took me a while to figure out I no longer had to change the ratings range before the start.
