Piaras Last-Name

Piaras Last-Name Screw-up from me — I hadn't noticed that James and John had already played each other once, so I've given their new fixtures an extra day. Honestly, huge props to them for playing so early, otherwise I'd never have noticed.

John Doherty

John Doherty Sorry Piaras, I didn’t notice the bit about not playing each other twice, I would have mentioned it beforehand if I had.

Piaras Last-Name Ah don't worry yourself about it — as the guy who's organising it, I've to take the responsibility

Piaras Last-Name I don't want to call too much attention to it but given that Eeshan has said himself that he's taking a break from Apto, I feel it wouldn't be much use scheduling games that he won't be around to play.

Having said that, I feel it's fair enough to give DOD the win on this one. Plus, there'll now be one player in the lower ends of the table getting a walkover (and a point) every round.

@Eeshan — you are of course welcome back whenever you're back on :)

Maria Chandler I have tried contacting John a few times but I have had no replies so I am not sure what I should do here, Piaras.

Maria Chandler Sorry, maybe it was Stephen in the last round, I have lost track! Hopefully we will get to play our game.

John Doherty

John Doherty Erm, I’ve not had any messages from you Maria - happy to arrange a time to play. Cheers.

Maria Chandler Hi John, sorry I was getting confused with the previous round, too many tourneys. I will contact you, thanks John.

Tourney round: Apto-Chess Championship: Grand Swiss Tournament: Round 3

<< Grand Swiss Tournament: Round 2 | Grand Swiss Tournament: Round 4 >>

Notes from the organizer: Putting this up now (it is currently the 6th) so I don't forget about it. Remember, fixtures are against others with the same (or similar) amount of points (but no two people can play each other twice).

Standings:
2.0: Dave R, George.
1.5: Adam, Dave K, Eeshan, Fiona, Florence, Ian, Matty, Michael O, Zohaib.
1.0: Edward, Graham, Hazel*, Johnny*, MSR, PLN.
0.5: Fi, James, John, Maria*, Matthew, Ronan*.
0.0: Andy, Bernard*, Christy*, Dan, Dave O*, Michael N*, Stephen*, Tom*, Wesley.
Those marked with an asterisk are still to play their second game (at time of writing) and are therefore subject to change.

Spreadsheet is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1O3LzUw00c4CCePX0I5TiBFHnwUvhQOov9vVIFaJsJRM
Will fill in tie-breaking stats soon.
