I have signed up for 10 tournaments, in some of them i actually got first and will move to a second round, but in majority of the tournaments i didn't qualify. Can I leave these tournaments so i can join new ones?

If all your games are complete, yes, you can do that without penalty, except for an ugly withdrawal stat, that does not seem to affect anything.

Well, if you have played all your games-what is the point in leaving. If you withdraw-you get (quote:"an ugly") statistic that tells everyone you withdrew when they look at your tournament stats!

If you have not completed your games-you still get that "ugly" stat beside your member name..

However, if the tournament has not started-you can withdraw.

So the choice is yours. (I recommend only entering tournaments you want to complete) and see through).

Oh, I thought this meant how to make your exit at an OTB tournament.  For that I'd have to say horseback is your best option.

But where is the withdraw button! 

Avatar of Recolor

Withdraw button is on the top right of the tournament tab, hover over it and you'll see the button

Agreed. The interface has changed. I do not see a withdraw button.

Any ongoing games will be resigned.
