No need to get all wound up ... yeah Im the biggest upset, on the losing end, I just find it weird that a good player has such a low rating, because as you might know, the groups are paired up according to rating. And yes there is a compliment somewhere in there ...

no need to tell everyone about being the biggest upset in this tournament. If you had checked my profile you would have realized why my rating is so low. A timeouter has to do something if he wants to participate in tournaments..... but even though everything is still legal.... sorry for that!

In our group we have a strong player with a very low rating, pittakos 680, which seems rather strange ...

Hey,

If you're interested, I also created a (very) small tournament, for 1400-1600 rated players. Please join at:
