I was originally going to play eekarf this past week and blitzbullet in the coming week, but delayed both matches to make the number of games played less lopsided. This coming week I can play any day between Monday and Thursday (evenings Pacific time). Since @xuanet is also trying to set up a match, I'm fine with playing him this coming week. Or anyone really, just looking to get this rolling... @chickencrossroad @mastertan

There should be a set schedule ish for when we play who like during round of 64, 32, 16. I think its just less confusing that way and more organized.

@blitzbullet Well, I tried that (and Jann did, too), but there's always some conflict, so that doesn't seem too practical.

@allyouneedisluft Yes, I think you vs. xuanet and mastertan should be good.

I had constructed a draft schedule in post #62. This was created as a guide, which allowed players some flexibility to play some matches early or to delay matches if required.

This week commencing 20th March is Round 2. By the end of the week we should expect to have completed these matches if the schedule is followed:

Round 1 (week commencing 13th March):
JannLee vs blitzbullet
allyouneedisluft vs eekarf
TwelveTeen vs xuanet
mastertan vs chickencrossroad

Round 2 (week commencing 20th March):
JannLee vs eekarf
allyouneedisluft vs blitzbullet
TwelveTeen vs chickencrossroad
mastertan vs xuanet

My Round 2 match against eekarf was played early last week, while my Round 1 match against blitzbullet was delayed to this week (25th March at 6pm GMT).

The match played between eekarf and blitzbullet has in fact been played well in advance, as this was originally scheduled for Round 7 (w/c 24th April).

My suggestion is that we could potentially progress towards getting back on track if we catch up on these two rounds above. I am aware that TwelveTeen only returns 21st March.

As @mastertan said, we're playing next sunday what should be round 1.
@Twelveteen is here alredy, so I'm waiting for him to answer me and see if we can set up a match for this week also with him.
