Im going on vacation for a couple of weeks and would resign my last game as not to be the one holding up proceedings , Im pretty sure i have qualified for next  round but it doesnt seem to highlight me in yellow. Can you confirm this Starbug?

For 'Spiny' and 'RAT', vacation as a factor is about done...for 'RAT', a move must be made in about 5 days and 3 hours or there will ba a time out.  They might move slow but there will have to be moves!!  BE PATIENT!!!

I was in a tournament in which the first round lasted 10.5 months, the last four of which was waiting on three games. Such is correspondence chess.

Be patient...vacations only last so long.  It's early in the year.  Later, when the time is needed, it won't be there.

The two games in my group still being played are absolutely pointless, the top two have already been decided....

For those of you who are curious, if there is a 3+ way tie for first with points and tiebreak points, all tying members advance.  That's what happened in my group.
