PM or post comments of Result + Score. Let me know if your opponent seems to be inactive. Let me know if you want to drop.
The one downside to Swiss Rounds is that the next round cannot start until EVERYONE has completed Round 1. Normally this isn't a downside but when the tournament is Youtube-based, timing becomes an issue. Round 2 will start Sunday with the posting of a video. Every game unresolved at that point will get counted as a Draw.
At the moment of this video posting, 19 of 48 rounds have been resolved, with at least 5 of those results via Forfeit. I swear, sometimes I think 75% of the tournament is signing up just to get a spot, then later on being too bothered to go through with it. 100 people were plenty ready to go and less than 40% have made progress.
