I forgot to mention something related to the Tie Breaks.

The Swiss tournament uses the Buchholz tiebreak system with a head-to-head match as the first priority.

If the tie persists, the total number of games won will be considered.

Hello everyone,

Considering that 3 players have asked to postpone the match, I will extend the deadline for only the first round to Wednesday, July 31st.

The following matches are complete:

@statmatt vs. @oruro
@vincent vs. @HawaiiBlue

The following matches are yet to be played:

@Nappi vs. @Vladimir
@tititogepi vs. @Mando

Please schedule these matches as soon as possible. Let me know if you need any help.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but I believe it's in the best interest of the tournament.
