2nd NSF Live Tournament Stage 2

Hello all!

Deadline for playing group stage games is up and it's time to move on. We have 4 players that made it to this stage of the tournament and pairings are as follows:

Musiclife vs Chry3841

Kotomitsuki vs Zyga65

These are strong players and I'm sure it will be interesting to watch them in action.

A bit about the rules for this stage:

This is knock-out stage of the tournament, only winners will advance further. There will be games for the third place however, but only the winners of this stage's games will fight for the 1st place (rules in the games for the 3rd place are the same as the rules in round 2. Set of games for the 1st place will be different, for details look at the earlier news) . All games are played with 90' time control. Two games are to be played by each pair. In the event of tie there will be pair of 2 extra games played with time control 30'+15" until one of the players wins the set. Every game that is to be played have to be announced at least 24 hours before it's played so everyone can enjoy watching it live.

I also have to set a deadline for this stage of the tournament. Two first games from each pair have to be played within a month from now, so you have up till 10th February to arrange and finish them. If any of you guys will have difficulties arranging games with your opponent please let me know as soon as you do and I'll help resolving the matter. Also if anything regarding the tournament is not clear please ask away and I'll try to explain.
