I'm doing my first regular meet in a really long time this weekend and when I registered I pretty much pulled some numbers out of my ass that sounded at least moderately right. I don't think I've ever entered anything without a time.
I haven't swam in a meet since like '98 and I don't train in meters so I have no idea where I'm really going to come out. But as a general rule I think you should enter your best time of the last year for seeding, as long as you have one. There's 2 more meets that I want to sign up for but I'm waiting for this weekend so I can base my entry on some real swims from this century.
