Why not making another Kuchinashi for 7-10k? After the current one has been finished I'll surely be eligible for the new one as well

Eh, I'm too borderline. I'll just get in on the next one. I change between 6k and 7k every game or two, so I'd rather be stable in one block or the other. I just like complaining about things that don't matter. =D

Here's redundant vs. Redstick. White won by resignation.
It was an ugly game, with mistakes on both sides.
EDIT: Here's a review from my 1D friend.

SoDesuNe and I have played our third game. I took white and SoDesuNe took black. The result was W+R.
Here's the record:
That leaves the score at two wins for me and one for SoDesuNe.
We're playing our next game on Friday at 17:00 CEST.

Me and Nikolas played our first game a few minutes ago, where I played white. I won by resignation.

SoDesuNe and I have just played our fourth game, with me as black and SoDesuNe as white. The game ended in resignation in favour of black. Here's the record:
This concludes our round 1 series, with three wins for me and one for SoDesuNe.
I'd like to thank my opponent for the games, it's been fun! Nice to play some "serious" online games for once, instead of just random KGS one-offs.

Here's Game 3 between Aphelion (B) and Karaklis (W). Result is B+R, but we both agreed later that White resigned too early. With this I win our Round 1 series 3-0. Thanks Karaklis for a great series of games!

Jedo and I played our second game last night; I won and the series is now tied 1-1. Our next game is Monday at 6pm Pacific/9pm Eastern.
Here is the SGF (interesting game, I'm still in disbelief that Black's lower-right corner died):

Hmm, maybe round 2 should wait for round 1 to finish? I think this is how we did it last time.

Hm, possible? Aphelion seemed to think that it was standard practice to play everything "as soon as possible". I didn't participate in or follow the last tournament, so I don't know how it was done. I'm fine with waiting, perhaps RedStick can clarify which way is "proper"?
There's certainly a bit of charm to synchronizing the rounds; I wouldn't vote against it, myself.
With that in mind, I guess we'll play tomorrow at 1900 CEST iff we've received confirmation that the rounds are not supposed to be synchronized before that.
