2012 Round 1 Group H

Here are the pairings for Group H.

Under match name you will find the requested match name to use for this tournament.  The 1st team listed issues the challenge to the 2nd team listed.  The challenge date and lock date columns are the dates the challenge should be issued and match locked so that the tournament can be finished on time.  Teams are expected to give a little leeway on these dates if requested by the other team.  Teams which fail to issue the challenge and/or lock the match after being contacted by their opponent or the TD may be forfeited at the TD's discretion.  If the teams are not able to agree on a lock date/time, the TD will set a specific deadline on request.

Matches should be set for 5+ players, open ratings, 2 simultaneous games.  If a team cannot reach 5 members (we hope this does not happen) then the other team has the option to lock the match with fewer players, or claim a forfeit.

Good chess to all!

Since C.c's Europe Group did not get any challenge from Kingdom of legends, we have instead sent them one today! We hope they accept soon!

Kingdom of legends win the section and advance.  Compiling all the results to see who the wild cards are.
