I just joined a rapid tournament today and won round 1. But when I  tried to join round 2, it says i got a 0 point bye. Not sure what this means ? Can anyone pls explain what this  ?

Thank you. It was in a different tournament btw

Yes, you're right. It's this one.

I don't know why you didn't play in the second round.

If the system doesn't see you in the Live interface when pairings are being made, you don't get paired. It's possible that's what happened and when it reconnected, you go that message.

Uhmm, same thing happen to me. So, should I just leave the tournament? Or wait?

You could wait and potentially refresh close to the last game finishing.
