I join Chew in his congratulations and thanks. It was a very nice idea : to be repeated next year !

congrats tabemasu!

Although i didnt participate gotta say it was well organized:) thumbs up!

Congratulations Tabemasu!

And thanks everyone, espacially toapzg and dfan for making this nice tournament! : )

Congratulations Tabemasu!

I enjoyed playing in this tournament a lot, and also enjoyed following it. There were a bunch of good stories, from Aphelion's great underdog run to Shaddy's 1d trail of destruction to Araban's comeback from an early loss all the way to the final.

I guess there will probably be another one of these in 2011. Hopefully topazg will be able step back in to run it, though I'm happy to keep track of it again.

Congrats to Tabemasu!

Now, next year, the L19 tournament should be to determine the challenger for the title. So whoever wins it next year gets to play a best-of-3 (say) match vs Tabemasu to attempt to take the title.

Admins/mods: Is it possible to change Tabemasu's title here (whatever it is called-- the lives in sente, etc text on the side) to something special? Like "L19 Champion" or "L19 Title Holder"?

Yep, we can change it to anything. I think the champion should choose his own title, personally.

i think it will be more intresting to have challengers every month or two than one year.
one year is too long to wait. let's promote match like UFC or BOXING then it will be exciting to watch.

The alternative is to just have several different tournaments for several different titles, so one is going at all times. I know I was considering running a rengo tournament soon...

Hi:

Can I still get in to the tournament? I didn't know about it until today. I hope these draws aren't final and you have room for one more player.

Thanks

Look at the dates on the posts. It's been over for a while.

Keep scrolling just a little further. Looks like talks have started for next year, so jump on in there: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2695

I am very sorry to announce that I have to withdraw from the tournament (group D) without playing any game. I thought it would be easier to find time to play but due to recently developed family reasons, I severely lack the time to get online in the evenings. During the day, I work fulltime and have no possibility to play on a real-time server (DGS would be possible but it would take ages to finish even one game).
It is simply impossible for me to schedule 3 games until the end of may.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
