Does anyone know why it split into two groups of three instead of one group of six? I just figured this round would be the last round because the maximum group size is six.

Thanks for that! You are a great sport!

And yeah, the game versus kdjoki does count for standings, but like you said, it is pretty much over, it should be over in a several moves.

Don't worry, it won't drag out - I don't want to resign in the one game (which I'll almost assuredly lose at this point) because it does matter for standings, but I'm going to be leaving on vacation next week, so I'll likely end up resigning the other game unless one of us messes up.

2 more games till the round is over! one is almost finished, and the other is meaningless (I hope it doesn't drag out), group  standings wise

isnt this round 2? did you mean round 3? i guess when all the games finish

when does round 2 start?

gl in round 2!

One more game left (round 1)!!!  http://www.chess.com/echess/game.html?id=45119909

After this round will there be more groups or knockout?

Heh. For half this round, it's been saying I've got one more win than I do. Nothing added to my score, mind you. Just found that glitch to be amusing.

Aye, Good luck!

GL evereybody!
