Eh I signed up but dk if I made the cut? I'm not brilliant at chess so it'll probably be a bloodbath for me either way...
Yep! We now have 8 participants, which means we are now able to start with 8 (the bare minimum needed). However people who would like to join and have not yet joined can still do so and they have until this Saturday to do so.
EDIT: Ignore the outdated "minimum number of players" rules. That no longer applies.
The more people the better the competition becomes! Everyone is encouraged to join!

Thanks for signing up! And good luck!
I have updated the competition description and rules so that it becomes fair and everyone who signs up by the final date can actually compete.
Have a look at the original post to learn the new rules. I will remove the strikethrough parts soon.
The draft draw is now available for you to have a look at as well:

Looks great, but I am beaming with confidence because if I 'lose', I have already hired Rudy Giuliani to contest the results.I have updated the competition description and rules so that it becomes fair and everyone who signs up by the final date can actually compete.

The 6th will be the last day to sign up. The comp will begin on the 7th (or after the 7th depending on the time you and your opponents agree on).

Oh I just realised you got my lichess username wrong. Its blokxee
Updated it, thanks for letting me know.
Round 1 games have been released!
If you see your username with a “Bye” underneath, it means that you don’t have a game this round. This will only happen once with each player because we have an odd number of players.
Good luck to all participants!
