I've added your name to the list; games will be allocated (and sent by PM) once enough competitors have been recruited ;-)

conquerhero wrote:count me in - sure looks like you're putting in a lot of work! don't know how to post to thread - embarrrassed - please let me know what to do next

No worries - writing that post was enough to get added to the list ;-)
All you need to do now is wait for all the other spaces to fill up, and then join the games you are allocated.

And that brings the total number of competitors to 7 so far...

That's 10 participants so far... not long to go to the halfway mark; If we get at least 16 people then this will go ahead ;-)

Only a minimum of 5 more required to make this a viable tournament... what do I need to do to tempt people to join up?
