Scott????

Would people please post their apterous ratings along with their post please.

Count me in.

Apterous rating is 1400 or something like that, probably will change before tourney starts!

Hi Joseph,

Sounds good. Count me in. Rating about 1480.

I'll play, rating 1350 ish.

Flight A is now full. Only peeps under 1200 rating points accepted.

Can anyone tell me how to add the games to the tournament system?

My rating is currently 1327, can you make an exception and enter me? Don't make me do a James Nguyen and purposely lose points.

Meh go on then.

Rating: 720, but will change as I'm looking to get ahead of Waldorf in the ratings. (not to mention someone has been losing to Nude (sigh))

I'd like to enter please, James Levison, at time of posting rating is 1113. cheers

That was quick. You really have to be on here 24 hours a day.

Still spaces for two players under 1200 rating-wise.

One more place for players under 1200.

Who's the 1?

lee Kelly, just told me on apteroud

If no-one takes the remaining place by midnight, Apterous Plum will take the place.

OK, now Harry Newton has filled up the tourney. Games are in the tourney system.

Niall Seymour vs. Mark James is first QF.

Why did spaces have to be so limited in this tournament? And why split it into two divisions? And even if you were going to divide it into two divisions, why not just allow the first 16 people in and divide that into two, rather than allow people with lower ratings longer to get in? Poor!

Er.... there's 2 James Levisons according to apterous, and am I supposed to be playing This one which the tourney system has told me to play, or This one, who's actually been around recently!

Whoops, just play the one who's been on recently.

Just to clarify, you need to play the one who's been around recently. I'm not adding it to the tourney system though. You might get reminder emails about the game but just ignore them.

Fixed it for you.

The final has been decided - Harry Newton vs. Hugh Binnie. I wonder who will win.
