We must remember, the faster players finish their games quickly, but then they have to wait until the slower players finish theirs, and that takes a lot of patience because we want to move on. Isn't there a tournament that do just that???

from what i know, if your points are out of the range at the start of the tournament, you'll be moved accordingly to the correct group, so you don't have to withdraw because of feeling unfair to others actually..

 

and from what i see,  only 1 from each group go through to the next round in this tournament.. as for tie break points, i'm not sure also.. i hope a staff can help.. :D

how many from each group go through?  also, how does the tie break points get worked out?

 

Sorry, this is my first tournament.
