ECL2017 DIVISION 2

ECL2017 Div. 2 Round 2, Bradford vs Bucharest
https://www.chess.com/club/matches/763869
should be won by Bucharest since Bradford did not get 10 players until the start date 07.03.2017. I let the game open as a friendly. Meanwhile, Bradford added some players and the game started, but I think I the result wouldn't count for our league.

"If two teams play in the same division for both WCL and ECL they should play double match except those cases when both teams agreed to play separate matches."

Well, I didn't take the print screen. I just remember that Bradford had for several days after the official starting date only 7 players registered Maybe they can confirm this.

As I saw,in match Prishtina-Barcelona,game between Ulku-Dogapenor who was won 2-0 by Ulku,but his account eas closed as Dogapenor is multiplayer.So is the score there 0-0 or how,please explain?

Will this recently started WCL match, Burgas vs. Barcelona, count as ECL R4, too?
If so, it is good to announce such thing here in forum, to help with preventing multiplayers to play in such matches in time!
If not, and your two teams simply agreed to postpone new ECL match, sorry for disturbing, but it would be also good to announce such things here in forum!

Also, for https://www.chess.com/groups/team_match?id=769960
it is not clear from match comments what is the final decision.
It looks like Tirana admin wants to count this match for ECL, too, which is by the ECL rules enough for counting it for ECL.
Minsk admin saying that 2 matches will be played by schedule is both not according to the rules after one team's wish for double match and it is obviously not true, since schedule for ECL obviously has passed
So what then will be, please, both team's admins use this forum better than match comments about making such decisions and agreements!

Minsk should really be awarded a default victory for R3 because Bradford failed to accept their challenge and it is already time for R5 challenges!
