Post below with "I'M IN" at the top of your thread if you want to play.

Also suggestions for tourney type: Knock, out, swiss, league style etc...

Change to the rules: we're bumping entry requirements to include 9kyus in the game because in my mind my goal of SDK by new years is still very much a possibility. So 9k and under... but especially under. The original aim was to give sub 20kyus and new members a chance to try out tourney play and new members a reason to start posting so if you're new to the game sign on up.

Cheers!

And I wish that one to be more polite. Last time I got third, and everyone congratulated only the first and the second.

Thanks

This probably means I get a default win in the first round, right? :-?

I think it is standard in Swiss style tourney's to get 0.5pt for a bye. Same as a draw.
