     This is my first tournament (online or off) so I'm supposed to challenge you tin621 but I don't know how, please help
tln621
to challenge me just go to my profile and on the right there should be a list of things such as leave a message, etc. click on the one that says challenge. then put ur preferences and send it. if u don't understand then just tel me and i'll send u a challenge.

     I did what ya said but it wouldn't let me because you don't except challenges from players with ratings over a certain amount. I just won a couple games, this week, that put me over. I guess you need to challenge me. By the way, great tournament for my first one, good job in putting it together! 
Zhane
Zhane v redhotman is underway

redhotman won from Zhane vs redhotman

the only update in the tournament is that xuan66 has withdrawn. therefore rimmy wins. there is one more game and it is well in progress. when it ends i will give another update.
tln621
i forgot to adress draws for this tourny. since this is a double elimination tourny, you need two losses to be out. if a draw occurs, then no one has a loss counted against them. but if a player has a second draw in another round then a loss will be counted. so basically two draws equal a loss. i'm just using this method for my tourny. i'm not saying that all tournaments do it this way. i thought it would be proper to adress something on draws since the game i'm in currently could very well end that way.
Zhane
Ok saying that however my opponent is on vacation
Zhane

I can't believe it redhotman is still on vacation

What's your verdict Tanner ?


tln621
the rules of the tourny are if you go on vacation you are disqualified. so i'm sory to say that redhotman is disqualified. thank you for notifying me zhane
tln621

now that diomed1 has won i am eliminated and there are 4 chess players remaining.

         the mathups for the 3rd round are as follows:

               white                             black

            **********************************************

               rimmy               v.           zhane

               diomed1            v.           kanon

 WHITE CHALLENGES BLACK!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

     I challenged kanon, but didn't put "tanner's tourny", I couldn't find the spot for it. I'm so computer challenged it's pitiful.
tln621
it's fine.
diomed1

    I got a win over kanon in the third? round


tln621
