Sign me up too. I might miss the first round, its my b-day party they night before, and the time is 11 am, i might fall asleep .

I want to play too!

I will be online for sure, and I like CET

Okay, I added you to my list.

@conanbatt: If you're offline 10 minutes before the tournament starts, I'll leave you out of the 1st round pairings.

Fischer is cool. Count me in. I am "sh" on kaya.

This could be a problem. It takes too long to rank up from the intial 30k (currently at 24k).

Normaly you should be able to set our rank in the profile once. Otherwise maybe conanbat can do something for you. But I don't think you have to worry much about this. As far as I can see you get 9 stones form everyone with both ranks (I'm kinda envious. From such games one can learn the most in my opinion...)

Finally I was able to reset the ranking. Phew. It was kind of tricky though. The "save" button didn't work, but the return key did

Sounds good

This makes us 6 players and we'll play the 5 rounds for sure. If we keep beeing 6 I promise to make the pairings myself to avoid problems like the last time... Of course I hope we become more players

Heya. I am keenly interested in Kaya.gs and wonder if I should buy in (as a supporter) in order to play this tournament? I'm 12 kyu, though - according to the South African Go Association. According to KGS, I'm about 8 kyu.

If you are intrested in kaya.gs this would be a great time of course . Besides if you're already intrested I guess you will become even more intrested in the future when new features are published
And just use the rank you feel more confident with. Maybe you'll be able to play some games before the tournament if you're unsure. I think there will be enough people who will help you.

Reminder: The tournament starts today at 15.00 CET.

First round:

1 Naizuri Berodan ?-?
2 Practise Celebrir ?-?

1 Naizuri Berodan 1-0
2 Practise Celebrir 0-1
3 sh conanbatt 0-1

2 conanbatt Berodan ?-?
3 Practise sh ?-?

Results round 2:
1 Naizuri Celebrir 0-1

3 sh Practise 1-0

Pairings round 3:

Sorry, that I don't make standings, but the breaks are really small with this time settings for me to organize. Will think about something else next time.
