Life in 19x19 Title Tournament, Round 1 and 2 draws

[Aphelion]

I vote for forfeits too. It simply makes sense after thinking about all the possible scenarios.

[karaklis]

Yes, forfeits are obviously the best way to deal with this situation (not only regarding dfan's argument).

[topazg]

Sounds like close enough to consensus for ketchup to win by forfeit, and onto the next round

I'll do a chase up shortly to keep things rolling.

[freegame]

my game, (daniel_the_smith VS freegame) is scheduled at Friday 12:00 GMT

[Aphelion]

I will be playing my next opponent, Deadtired, at Thursday 8:00pm PST

Now I'm confused. I thought you meant PDT (Daylight time), which is the time zone on the west coast right now (GMT-7). Do you really mean PST (Standard time), that is, GMT -8?

Any time someone says PST/EST while Daylight Saving Time is in effect, I assume that they mean PDT/EDT. I've just been putting both up on the schedule page.

I make this same mistake all the time(EST/PST). Sorry for all those suffering from my fail-ness!

[Aphelion]

Yea, I mean PDT. When I say PST, what I really mean is "time in California".

[schultz]

Daylight savings time vs. Standard time claims another victim!

What fun we have with our changing time.

Back on topic, thanks for continuing to post the schedules. I hope to be able to catch a couple of these games.

[Aphelion]

Aphelion vs Deadtired is postponed to tonight 9:30pm PDT.

[Magicwand]

zinger: we need to setup our game time.
i am free anytime after 9PM eastern time.

[ketchup]

GG all. I thank everyone I played for the games, and even those that didn't, thank you for the entertaining games to watch . If anyone is interested in playing me on KGS or elsewhere, please give me a message here. I will always take up the offer.

DuskEagle Vs ketchup

DuskEagle won by resign

[Dusk Eagle]

Edit: ninja'd by ketchup. Oh well, here's the game anyway.

There was a devastating sequence at the end if you had just cut me at K17. I should have defended against that cut instead of saving the three stones. Then it would have become ko.

Oh nice, I didn't think about k17. It's definitely does seem interesting. It was difficult though, I don't think I read well enough for this tournament.
