The game between @McGoohan and @MathsMaths0 has not started yet.

@MathsMaths0, are you fine playing with witch and spirit which McGoohan suggested? Or do you prefer witch and guard.

Avatar of MathsMaths0

I would prefer witch and guard, but I'm game to try the new piece if he wants.

Avatar of McGoohan

I find the Spirit very exciting and would love to play this variation and I am happy that you are ready to try it out happy.png

I believe the normal thing to do when a player withdraws is that his opponent advances. (nobody takes the place of a player who leaves the tournament).

I haven't been following all these games too closely. If there's a game that needs a mod please let me know. I can mod one game (in addition to two games that I'm playing).

Thanks RandomPatzer.

MathsMaths, are you OK playing a game with spirit? An example game is (here).

Here is the tournament rule:

All games are bulldog with witch unless both opponents agree to a different bulldog variation (must have been played at least once).

So if you agree then you and McGoohan can play with spirit.

Martin0, the game you show has witch and spirit. My assumption was McGoohan suggested witch and guard.

If both players already agreed then I have no problem. But we should clarify before the game actually starts. (Sorry if this has already been discussed and agreed).

I'd love to play with Witch and Spirit, both Martin and Maths. I am ready from now on.

Ok, thanks Martin0 for the clarification. If you're moding I appreciate that. And if so, then I still have time to mod one other game (a game in this tournament).

@HolographWars is back!

I guess the question is whether we should put him back in the tournament to play against ry or if it is too late after I called ry winning by forfeit.

Avatar of Martin0

ok, as soon as he's ready, then I guess @vickalan can mod.

Avatar of Martin0

I won against @vickalan. All games in round 1 are now completed.

I will play white against @ChessPlayerwithskilz in the winners bracket

@Togishere will play white against @vickalan in the losers bracket.

Avatar of evert823

I have trouble reading the scheme.  Should I play greypenguin now ?

#447 Bracket shows you waiting for the loser of Martin0 v ChessPlayerwithskilz, so it'll be a while.
