e.g. 1-board rounds are impractical, but a 27T Web would have you encounter only 1/3 of your opponents.
Edit: here's what we've come up with, thanks for your help:
1st session of qualifying: 27T Web (13 rounds of 2)
2nd session of qualifying: 27T Web (13 rounds of 2 plus 14th barometer round playing 27-28).
Final: Top 7 qualifiers from each axis 7-table, 2-board Howell (or 4-board Howell, with a lunch break, if time permits).
Plate: 10T 10x3 Mitchell
Consolation: 10T 10x3 Mitchell
