Title: Lightning Tournament
Post by Fritzlein on May 14^th, 2005, 11:15am

We probably don't need to schedule specific matches until we see how the tournament is progressing, but I thought I would post when I will usually be available. Since I'm on dialup, I don't want to tie up the phone too much in the middle of the day, so I will generally be on only in the morning (maybe 12:00-14:00 GMT) and evening (say 3:00-5:00 GMT). I hope I can meet most of you during one of those time slots or another, but if it seems to never work out, we can schedule other times as needed. :-)

Do we have a list of all the players and how they are going to be paired for the lightning tournament?

My idea was that everyone will play everyone else whenever they get a chance. Formal scheduling can take over when we see which ones don't get filled in by themselves.

Well, 20 days into the tournament it looks like most games are happening just by people bumping into each other without planning. 36 games played out of 84 total is actually ahead of schedule for a 61-day tournament. However, Adanac seems to be the exception, having played only 2 games so far.

Adanac, if you read this can you pick a date and time when you will be on-line for playing tournament lightning games? If you post the time here, I'm sure at least one of the other six of us will show up for a few games. Thanks. :-)
