Thanks, Nick, for the ideas.  Just running with Daniel included is certainly one possibiliy, even though he's disappeared.  If he didn't re-appear, it would wind up being a bye for almost everyone, but not everyone, so not completely fair.

Adding two more games and everyone gets a bye doesn't work.  I think we have the same pairing problem.  We'd essentially have 12 players, because you'd consider "bye" a player.  We'd have 66 games (counting a game against "bye" as a game.)  And we'd have 66 possible pairings.
