It's not a schedule. It's a deadline.
You must have played you're opponent until someone wins 3 times. In other words, it's a best of 5 except that stalemates don't count as games. You don't play against Hexa on July 10. It's a deadline. Meaning play as soon as possible. You need to have submitted your wins and losses by the end of July 10.

Think about it, RedSoxFan3, just friendly suggestion.
Quote:
The problem with doing this is that then there will be 20 players. 10 will be eliminated leaving 10 then 5. You will then end up with 1 player who can't play anyone.
Well, maybe I shouldn't say anything coz I'm not a participant. Here comes my opinion:-
20 >> 10 >> 5 is just theory , actually I guess some ppl may not be able to play throughout the whole tournament and so maybe you can have 20 >> 10 >> 4  and IF you are lucky to have ALL stayed around, you can make some rules like the last 5 players will play against all the other 4 players and ppl with highest marks win, just like some sports tournament. Sorry for being too lengthy. Hope you understand what I'm talking. Damn, I only know how to play Chinese chess.....

Huh... Instead of posting suggestions, could we start the tournament? I am tired of waiting. I hope that this post will be the last suggestion. What we only have to do is confirm the 16 players (a lot of time has passed, so some players maybe dont want to play anymore, because of the confusion).
Well, I am in, and just waiting The Gootch confirmation to play!

Everyone just start god damn it. I gave the substitutes their match-ups. If people don't meet their deadlines, then you'll be replaced.
Start playing. It's already started. I will change players around if they ask and if everyone gives their time zones. Give me time zones.

It seems I've been switched to play you Asthma Phoenix. It's a good thing that the Phoenix is able to rise from its ashes.

For The_Gootch:
First, start to spell my nick correctly!
Second, I will be at MSN Zone after midnight(my time - today) waiting for your challenge. Then you will learn how chess is played.
P.S.: Confirm the game sending a IM or a post here.

After midnight?! What kind of gutless, freeloading slack do you take me for?
My only window to play the games is Mon-Fri 1100-1300.
We will meet each other here at speak via IM to make sure that we can mutually agree on where we're going to play.
If it turns out that there's a problem downloading(mostly from my end), then at least we'll still be in touch.
And riddle me this batman, how is it that I have to challenge you?

What is the problem with the time?
It will be 23:00 in your time.
I cant play before this, or you will have to wait until next weekend.

I don't know why I've got to post these silly little messages when I could be IMing you.
Here's a hint Astimus, log in. That way you and I can talk in real time.

Since there has been a lot of confusion, I am thinking of increasing the deadline a couple of days, if not many people have completed their games.

There is no longer a deadline. No one seems to be playing 
Perhaps Sir_Elric knew that it would be easier to have a tournament where you can play 13 different people instead 1 specific one.
If I get a QP, I think Sir_Elric should, too.
