or maybe just read his profile... who knows
However by joining and then immediately resigning both parties have prevented two others players from actively participating in the tournament, which is a shame. 🙁

As for "read the profile" it doesn't give a reason for resigning all the games.

Originally posted by adramforallas a fix ...russ could make it that if player resigns before their first move in all their games in a tournament ... then the next best player from their previous group would play in all their games ... in this case felldancer would pickup schakur's round 2 games, and sealion would take akizy's games in round 2.

this fix would of course be a silly and unnecessary fix ... unless it becomes a common habit of the successful tournament players.

What happened to me was I joined a few 3/7 tournies within a few weeks of each other, and then the second round of all of them started within a couple of days, so I resigned my games in a couple of them, and played in the others.

What happened to them was I joined a few men 24/7 and within a few minutes of each other, they wanted a second round and all, one of them started eating a couple, so I resigned myself to gay couples from then on and only played in the bath.
