Reliability rating shows how many moves a player skipped during games.
NMR is 1 skipped move.
I thought "reliability rating" refers to how NICE someone is. How likely to look after your dog and remember to feed it, how likely to follow through on paying back that $25 for espresso last thursday, or how likely to vote consistently in upcoming elections...

OR Nikola is correct.
(Which maybe should raise HIS reliability rating?)
Maybe you just raise mine to 100 since I pay the 25 bucks for the espresso

There's still time to sign up. Signups close Sunday at noon PDT.

We're on track to finish with around 150 signups. This won't mean 150 players, as some have volunteered to be subs and some have signed up twice, but I'll still be increasing the prizes again at the 150 signup mark.

How soon after signups close does the tourney start?

I'm going to tentatively say about a week and a half. I need to confirm RRs and sort out all of the incorrectly input GRs and then actually create ~140 games, and then people have to join them.

I signed up for the tournament last week (as a substitute, I think) and would like to withdraw, if possible.

Too many games right now to take on 7-14 more. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Understood. Let me know if you ever change your mind about subbing.

You're on the list. Games haven't started yet. I have a lot of bureaucratic and setup work to do before they can.

btw, Is the plan to start all games at the same time or stagger them somehow?

That's somewhat dependent on the sanity of the tournament director, but the intent is for them all to start at roughly the same time in any case.

Thank you Ghug for taking this on. I can only imagine the amount of work (of exactly the sort I dislike) which must go into setting this tournament up.

Thank you for doing that so we can all have fun.

Thank you ghug! I have arranged FTF tourneys before, and it was an immense amount of work. Thank you for doing it, and for the countless hours of high octane entertainment, and millions of written and spoken words it will provide.

I've PMed everyone with low-reliability. If you received a PM and you think you're reliable enough to play, please try to respond promptly.

Someone signed up with username "TheHamd". This user doesn't seem to exist. If this was you, please let me know, and I'll correct it so that you can still play.
