Why do we have 1900s in our r2 group?

Also If 2 people advance to the next rd in a group, does that mean they will play each other again if they win and They are in the same group with 6 people?

If an unfinished game will not effect who will advance to the next round, can the administrator remove the game from the tournament and get the 2nd round started?  We have many people who have not even finished their 1st game against each other.  Maybe the administrator could change the rule so they can start their second game before the first is finished.  This tournament is really dragging out to long.

all players above 1525 should have graduated out of this 1500 tournament by virtue of their improvement. everyone knows that the most fun tournament groups are those with evenly matched players where the group winner goes 5-3 and the last place is 3-5, each game is close and anyone can win even if they lose the first game .I'm tired of battling into the second round of a 1200-1400 tournament only to be crushed by a 1950 rated player who goes 8-0 in the second round group.

I am about as close to 1500 as you can get. My rating fluctuates a lot, so could you please keep me?

No, I want to play in this tournament.  I am right on the cusp and usually fall below 1500 on any given day.

under 1500 does not mean above 1500, tournament director should remove those with above eligible rating at start time
