| Allowing this kind of registration becomes headache-inducing if there are several. I've tentatively put you down for two games regardless of how the parity eventually works out, but feel free to make my life easy and only give me one number.

I think pairing the players again, but with reversed colors, is a good logical solution going forward. However, I place a high value on games being enjoyable to the players. So if you would not enjoy playing the same opponent twice in this round, I would let deep_blue play the game. I suppose the proper thing to do is redo the pairings, but I am fine if deep_blue simply replaces you as a matter of expediency to get the pairings out sooner

The pairings don't take terribly long manually when I have some peace and quiet, which (when combined with the infrequent need to pair in the new format) is why I haven't done more to automate (and in so doing fully specify) the process just yet. The source of my concern was rather that knowing the content of the pairing I wanted to throw out could influence my decision on whether or not to do so. I finally decided that the combination of the history of throwing out pairings leading to forced 'too soon' rematches in the old format, my feeling that repeat pairings should be avoided where reasonable as shown by the current procedure avoiding them where possible, and the lack of objection were enough for me to evaluate this as the best option independent of the particular partial pairing being discarded.

It seems I forgot to actually post here that registration for the next round is open.

By popular-enough demand I am opening registration for a new round to start in one week.

Four is appropriate enough, risteall. I've accepted the registration attempts in each of the last four posts.

Reporting games is currently not required. I read the chatroom archives, the forums, and the recent game comments frequently and evidence of played EEE games there is likely to be spotted quickly. I examine my email/gameroom message bin regularly but less often, and occasionally check the game records between registered players. Obviously, it's still possible for me to miss one. In that case, leaving me a reminder anywhere I can see it is acceptable.
