Ranmit - Xbabarx 7.5 - 8.5 https://webutil.brid...755014&u=ranmit
Terrible last match, end up with a total of 100...I think I am missing the qualifying by just 1 point

Both groups are close.
Less than 1/2 the field will be left to play on for the remaining 2/3 of the tournament.
It's hard to understand why so many good players dislike the alternative Swiss format.
Each competition format has its flaws but the rejected Swiss format has (fewer but) longer matches (which might seem more reliable) and would leave most players in contention for places (including several potential winners, who are about to be eliminated).

In my opinion swiss format takes to much times.i think it will be twice longer.

Depends on the length of each match but Swiss format would probably be shorter.
- Event 14 format: RR1 (12 X 16) + RR2 (4X16 +5X32) + SF(4X16) + F(4X16) = 34 X 16 = 544 boards.
- Swiss format with 7 rounds of 64 board matches = 7 X 64 = 448 boards.

I've already mentioned why I don't think it works well (the biggest part being too many matches unimportant for one of the players but vital to others), but if you want to organise one I'll happily play it and am sure others will too.

True - needed 1.5 to be safe, hence was targeting 9 in the last round but ended up with 7.5. Now need a whole host of favorable results to qualify, the first of which was provided by Vilgan yesterday (Thanks!).
Now requesting Twisterrz to please draw / win against Broze...but not by much
