I think maybe we should just let the players work out what they want to play with, and W+G is default.

I say we let @vickalan work it out as he's done these before.

I need to play a lesser opponent than the great HorribleTomato to get rating, where can I seek an opponent?

And if I draw?

How long will a game take, I need to know or I will withdraw

Waredude
If you search"looking for opponents/games" you can find an opponent.
Waredude
About a month with good play from both sides.

I'm still travelling, but I hope to start this tournament in about a week. It doesn't matter too much how the slots are filled, except that strong players should not face each other right away. I'll double-check for that later.

Also, the normal game is bulldog with witch, but if two players want to play a different bulldog game in the first round it's allowed. Experimental and new games are not allowed in the quarter-finals and above until they've been play-tested (to make sure there are no ambiguous or unclear rules).

If any two-players want to play something different than "witch" let me know.

Lastly, the starting round of the tournament will go slow, because I can't moderate eight games at the same time. But if any two players can moderate (post the board) of their own game then that helps a lot.

I'll be back later to finalize the bracket.happy.png

In the Super-dog tournament, Tomato and I played bulldog with hunter (here). Unfortunately I lost on time, but we decided to keep playing as unrated. It's been a fun game.

I'm just mentioning it, because it's an example of another type of bulldog.

@Vick, No problem. I was happy to help. And being a member of the federation i felt it was my job to take responsibility while you were busy.
