Dear Friend, 

next month I'll go to a Pilgrimage, for about 40 days. My vacation days are 1 mont and 6 days, so not enough. I don't want to bother other players with a long waiting. So I decide to withdraw the tournament.

I'm so happy I met very good and nice players in this tourmament and I want to thank the TD Muxman for the great idea he had to organize such a tournament.

Thanks to everybody

if I would have higher rating then 2000 - what would happen ?
When I've registered, I have had 1770. But now I have probably 19** ..
So I want to ask, what will happen, if I have higher rating than 2000.

Thanks

Can the number of necessary entrants be lowered? I don't think we are going to make it to 96 anytime soon.
