Any chance of an Antipodean tournament? I'm getting a little tired of no-one making any moves until I've gone to bed...

This of course has nothing to do with Hemisphere.

But Hemispheric tournamnets have been offered:

Why not a national championship ko tournament for each country (based on computer location and not flag of convenience), the winner from each country to take part in a ko tournament to find who is the World Champion of RHP?

Would probably be an enormous task for the servers to have to decipher IP addresses just for a tournament.

Start a club for players in your hemisphere and have club tournaments.
Although I know some players want to increase the win list on their profile, so that wouldn't be enough for them. 🙂

Congratulations on winning the July 2008 Octet IV 1300-1350. For a 1700+ player, it's a real achievement.

Not to mention you could have multiple address due to different computers and moving of the IP addresses to different locations.
Who saids a person has to be in a fixed location or same pc or laptop to input their moves.

Does it matter?
If you enter tournaments 300 below your true level you are just spoiling it for the others. Your list of victories must make you very proud. 🙂
