eagle eye / Gemini J: Correct. The next round will not start until all games have been completed, even if both sections have outright winners already. That's the way it has always been.

If you are in the tournament and will not win it, and therefore will not progress to the next round, if you ask Fencer nicely - and copy the link to the tournament, he will sometimes be able to "release" you from it so you can enter another tournament.

The other alternative, is to purchase a "Rook" membership, where everything is unlimited. You will not be disappointed with the facilities a "Rook" membership has to offer - and no more "waiting" for tournaments to finish.... ;)
