POST FOR INFORMATION >> http://www.bridgebas...8a-information/


EDIT1: Qualification round will start on Sunday, April 16th! The group stage will start around Saturday, April 22th-ish.
EDIT2: You must read and accept (1), (2), and (3) below.

Hello all:

It is time for BBO Forum Challenge Event 8! This time, we will not have two events running parallel, but have a premier event (we call it 8A) and a side event (we call it 8B).

Event 8A will be similar to Event 7B (RR then KO). However, we will open it up to all players. In case we have much more people than we plan:
>> People who are top in the MasterPoints list will automatically join the Round-Robin stage.
>> People who are not qualified directly (either low in the MasterPoints list or first timers) will have to play a Qualifying Knockout (one or two rounds based on your MasterPoints). We think that this will also help us to take action against people who register but don't play before they mess up the sensitive RR format.

We will do our best to accommodate our regulars, but we will keep the group stage maximum of 32-36 people.

Some stuff you need to know:
(1) The games will be 10 to 16 boards with MP(matchpoints) & non-best hand.
(2) Players are expected to play 5 to 7 matches per week based on a schedule provided.
(3) Players have to follow the post daily.

Registration is now open. If you want to register, you should register and mention that you read and accept (1), (2), and (3).

EDIT: Qualification round will start on Sunday, April 16th!

After the qualifying rounds are over, we also start registration for the side event. It will be IMP, non-best hand, 2 matches per week. This is open for people who want to play a slower pace or people who get knocked out in the qualifying stage. A player can play in both, but can get MasterPoints only for the Premier event in this case.

By the way, quoting from the conditions above:

"(1) The games will be 10 to 16 boards with MP & non-best hand."

Did you mean to say MP (match points)? I would have thought the event would be entirely by IMPs.
