How do we handle missing players? Fuchsnoir (my next opponent) hasn't been responding to my messages for about 2 weeks, and he has't logged on to L19x19 since April. Do we have a waiting list of players?

Edit: I just got sente :)

Mosdefgo and I will play today, at 15h EST, 21h GMT+1, if we haven't made a mistake with the timezones. :)

21:00 GMT+1 is 15:00 EST (GMT-5), so that works out, but most of the east coast is on EDT (GMT-4), so that would be 16:00 for them. Hopefully that fits with what you meant. I hate time zones...

I can play both one hour before or after, if needed. Mosdefgo clearly said EST, but yeah, timezones can be weird. That's why I recommend using a website to check it first. I usually use http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbr ... timezones/
It's been pretty useful to me on the IberoAmerican Internet tournament.

Well, I am on the list. It's up to the tournament director to decide what to do.

I won this close game against Padic. Aphelion offered some nice comments after the game. Thanks. If anyone else feels inclined to point out some of the more boneheaded moves and missed opportunities, we would appreciate that as well.

If he doesn't turn up by Monday, and you were next on the list (which I can't seem to find!), you can take his place to play Aphelion :)
