TMCL960 2019 Round 1

Here are the TMCL960 2019 Round 1 pairings.

Always make sure you set the Start Date and Start Time for your match. Select the announced start date and set the hour to 09:00 AM (Pacific Time), unless you have arranged an earlier start time with your opponent. After sending the challenge, viewing it will show you the start time using your own time zone. 

You can find teams and their representatives here. 

On the challenge date for each round in the tournament, the left-hand or first-mentioned team in each pairing must send the challenge to the opposing team (But both teams are free to send that), which must promptly check and then accept it.

 If the opposing team does not receive a challenge within one day after the announcement, then they should not continue to wait but must themselves issue the challenge, and the other team must promptly check and then accept it.

- If the match won`t start for registration after 4 days after the announcement, one or both teams will lose the match by forfeit.

You can post your challenge issues on our Match problems forum. You can see TMCL960 2019 rules forum.
