My apologies for slow play. Just yesterday returned from out of country trip with very limited access to Internet and almost unlimited access to alcohol.

Will try to finish the rest of my game as soon as possible.

Just imagine you'd been to a country with fast internet and unlimited access to alcohol - you would be out of the tournament already, for different reasons!

Olegru and I played our match last night.

barmar 70 - Olegru 30

I knew I was going to lose board 1 for being so timid after RHO opened 2 when I held Qxx. Board 2 was an interesting push, since Oleg's 3NT is makable double dummy, and I only bid 2NT. The bots gave him a gift of an overtrick on 10.

Dear all,

 

-You can start round 2. The assignments are in the following worksheets: R2GP1,R2GP2,R2GP3,R2GP4,R2GP5

 

-DON'T FORGET IN ROUND 2 YOU HAVE TO PLAY 16 BOARDS PER MATCH.

 

- Make sure you also see the updates in OP.

 

- A brief explanation about the results: I assign arbitrary scores to people who are responsible for failing to complete. They are all eliminated and are not assigned ranking (and it has no effect on future seeding, which is pre-determined before the tournament, see the "format" sheet). If you're in top 7 of each group in round1, you are advanced.

 

- For the two 8th places, I let natali_ from group1 adv. because that's the only group where all 11 people complete (8 out of 11 harder than 8 out of 10). meekbird is eliminated for being responsible for not completing 1 match. The only cross-comparison is between wackojack and mofumofu, I pick wackojack to adv. given that even if he's only assigned 5.5 pts instead of 7pts for the match opp fails to complete, the VP is still higher than the one mofumofu gets. mofumofu will get the "bubble price" of 0.5 seeding points but will not be in round 2.

 

-There will be no carryover from previous rounds throughout this event (and probably most/all BBF challenge events).

To all group 5 members - I have 'followed' all of you. Whenever you're available to play, 'follow' me, and then you can challenge me and play your 16 boards instantly. (You can then unfollow me if you like :P) I'm ready to play whenever so will let you decide what best fits your Christmas schedule.

I've done the same thing (coincidentally, the same group). I can play any time, so I'll also let my opponents schedule the matches at their convenience.
