Well, as soon as Akita signs back on and makes moves, this thing will be done! :)  He has 2 consecutive forced moves that I've set up as a condition :)  Only a matter of time...

Good game all!

please consider joining my next tournament called "Where are we?" The speed is <6 hours and there are two days for plays so it should be a little faster.

He's still playing games, and the time control was set for 5 days per move.  I suggest that if you'd like your tournaments to be over faster, set it for a faster time control.  Don't drop him just because he uses the whole allotted time for some of his moves.

league, what would be the vote to drop akita from the league and finish the tournament? i have emailed him to see if he is competing still and received no response. i am limited to 10 tournaments and would like to have this one in the books so i can sign up for another one. i want to be fair, but my patience is running out. please let me know your sentiments.
