"Snoopy": The point is to get the top players to the final rounds. I will make a note about it in the blog later today.

Jim Dandy: Plus I believe you can still edit the start date settings before the tournament starts. So if you see that it is about to be deleted, you can edit the tournament to another date to give more time for people to sign in.

coan.net: Thanks for the info,i'm new to setting up tournaments.I'll try it again with your tip in mind

purplehawke: To learn more about the different time limits, check out this article: http://brainrook.com/archives/54-Time-limit-for-games-on-BrainKing.html

I've wrote it up awhile back since the fischer clock games can really fool many people - heck, I don't even sign up for those types of games anymore. Anyway, I tried to explain with examples in the article and many have found it very helpful in explaining how the different time limits work.

Jim Dandy: Did you set the option of "Days after the deadline before a tournament with not enough players is deleted:" to 7 days, or 29 days (with I think 29 days is the max)? Of course now that it is deleted, there is no way to check I don't think.

I was wondering why the tournament I had posted was deleted.It didn't fill in the original time,but was only 7 days over.I have seen tournaments waiting to be filled into the third week and they are still listed.

purplehawke: It makes sense but you don't understand Fischer's clock. The game started 30 days ago, now it timeouts.
