I'm not sure I'm understing everything.

1st - In THIS TOURNAMENT, before all the games were finished, you asked in here about the next round - where you were told that all the games had to be finished in each section before the round 2 starts.

2nd) Looks like the last game in round 1 was complete at the end of November (couple of weeks) - and since you mentioned it on this board before this, you expected Fencer or whoever to be watching VERY closly for the last game to finish so the 2nd round can start?

3rd) The second round is ready to start - This has to be done by either the tournament creator or Fencer (Fencer does it when the tournament creator does not). Hopefully when Fencer signs on, he will see the messages on here and start the 2nd round (Since now the games ARE finished and the 2nd round CAN start)

4th) Your friendly game had nothing to do with the tournament games.

5th) There will be 3 players in round 2 of the tournament which I'm sure will start tomorrow since you have now brought it to the attention of the site owners (A nice message asking is prefered, but whatever)

NOTE: All games in round 1 NEEDS to be finished before the round 2 starts. Fencer does not have time to keep an eye out on all tournaments that round 2 does not start - it is usually something for the tournament creator to do, the down side is sometimes the creator forgets to start round 2, or leaves the site. In that case, Fencer is always happy to start the 2nd round for people AS LONG as he is told about it AND AS LONG as all the games are complete in the first section.

I hope this helps - but if you are leaving anyway, good luck and have fun!
