I think that if we were to do an all play all then 6 boards would certainly be better than 8 - the increased number of games wouldn't be feasible for Bon Accord at any rate unless the number of boards was reduced, and I'm sure we're not the only ones. Particularly as an all play all might well be accompanied by a change to a "central" venue for all the games. I can't imagine people giving up chess if they don't get to play board 8 in the Richardson - it's a fun competition but even so...
