Seems to be a general problem - in https://www.chess.com/tournaments/pairings?id=115844&round=1 the first round has finished, so I expect the 2nd to start automatically, but it hasn't. Probably support ticket time, I guess
Why doesn't my tournament start?
Sort:
So what happened? I tried to start my tournament and its just not starting...
Since you are below the maximum number of entrants, but the start date is today, the system is probably waiting for you, as the tournament director, to start the tourney manually. You should go to the tourney page and look around for some kind of "start tourney" button.
I pressed start tournament... still hasn't started...
I had to wait over 24 hours for mine to start for no apparent reason. But it did eventually.
A tournament i created - FISTFUL OF DOLLARS II - was full 24 hours ago and it still hasnt started, even though it should do automatically. What the blazes is going on?
