"the ideal form of the last rounds should be 1-4 3-2 or 1-8 5-4 3-6 7-2."
This is from the notes blog, and has been in practice from quite some time, but I have never thought it made any sense. You can have the top players meet in the final round (in theory), but why should the second-highest rated player get the bottom slot? Rather, it could be:
1-3 2-4 or 1-4 2-3 for 4 players, and 1-5 3-7 2-6 4-8,
which would still permit the top two seeds to meet in the "finale"
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.
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.
