Vs me, I've already lost
I messaged mango73 yesterday and am still waiting for an answer. He was online this morning so hopefully he's seen it.
@mango73 please schedule a game with @IAmWinston.
Same thing to @Qeru vs @phar0ah as well as @pikachu975 vs @HaydenChau
So far 3 games have been played
Also, please don't share results. It would be great if we could add a bit more suspense to the competition
I will share the results as well as ranks at the end of each round.

@IAmWinston and @Qeru since you guys attempted to message your opponents, what will happen is if there's no answer by next week Sunday at the latest, you guys will automatically be the winners.

I reckon a discord chat would be useful to organise times to play games, because this is gonna take a while to organise
Great idea. I will make one

Round 1 is over! Here's how everyone went:
Round 1 summary:
It was an extremely close start to the competition, with @Directrix and @tejmehta3108 forcing each other into a draw, claiming one point each.
@nilatar claimed his first three points, thanks to his win against his opponent @Anonymously Hidden in what was an intense game!
@Where's the Funny? secured his first three points as well after defeating @username_2!
@mango73 was unable to play his first game and willingly forfeited as a result, which gives @IAmWinston his first 3 points.
Sadly, @pikachu975 and @HaydenChau were unable to find time to play their game, and were given one point each as a result.
@Qeru and @phar0ah also found themselves in a similar situation, and were given one point each as a result.
@Want90Atar, having not played a game this round, is surely hungry for wins as he plays his first game in Round 2!
Please try to find time to play your games in the upcoming rounds. We know people have other commitments, but you signed up and it would be sad if you don’t enjoy your games and have fun. After all, that’s what this competition is for.

Next!
Round 2 fixtures have now been released!
You can view them here:
docs.google.com
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.
Round 2 will conclude on Wednesday 31 March
Round 2 results will be announced on Thursday 1 April, and Round 3 will begin on the same day.
Please make sure you attempt to communicate with your opponent as there are rules which apply in case a game is not played by the final date.
Good luck!
