But I am not sure if it is automatic, or that the admins still have to push the button, but that could explain a delay.
Also I notice that it is a draw in that group. Maybe the system does not handle that correctly?
So ..eh.. actually I don't know.

Different tournaments have different ways of working out who is going to meet who in the next round based on ratings, group size, number of 'winners' and stuff, so (I think) that someone has to intervene to kick the next round into being active.
All the tournaments I've been in have had a bit of a lag in starting new rounds.
