Hi, this is my first tournament... If I make mistakes, hope you'd forgive me.
I don't know about any tournament systems, so I'll pair people randomly without any systems...
This is an 8 people tournament.
The rules:
1. The trophies will be given for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd champion.
2. The time per move should be 1 day, so it won't take much time
3. I won't send any messages, so you'd have to track this topic
4. All players have to be 1000-1600.
5. If there's a draw, player with lower rating is the winner.
6. Once you lose, you're out.
7. When you finish a game, post it here. I'll check it.
8. Who'll play white or black is decided randomly.
9. The game should be named "Knock-out Tournament R:1000-1600"
If there are any rules should be added/removed, please tell me...
Good luck!

I will play
but if there is a draw I think there should be a rematch first then if it is a draw again lower rating is the winner because if the player with the highter rating accepts the draw it is just like he resigned.
Yeah, that's right.
RULE:
I'm changing rule number 5, you should play again one more time, and if there's another draw, player with lower rating is the winner.
Thanks

Happy playing
I'n adding 1 more rule:
10. A game shouldn't be more than 2 weeks, starting from 18 February
Sorry, rule number 10--> starting from the beginning of your match, not from 18 February. When you start the game, it'll have date right? Not more than 2 weeks from that date.
I'm adding:
11. If a game lasts more than 2 weeks, it'll be counted as draw and they'll have to start another game which is 1 week. If it's still not finished, then the player with the last move is the winner-->it prevents people from not moving.
If there're any rules should be added or removed, please tell me...thanks
