IK Cup

IK2005 is the Irish Knockout Cup 2005, a 9x9 knockout event played on Dragongoserver for Irish players. I, IanDavis, am still planning away to come up with a suitable format. All suggestions are welcome

Some Details

Basic Rules

  • 9x9
  • even games - better in my opinion but open to persuasion
  • Time limits not decided yet, 40 to 50 days and some byoyomi should be plenty.
  • Komi, 5.5
  • Pairings decided by myself at random

We have 20 players on Dragon, so far 3 have declined to enter. So one could expect about 4 rounds with a preliminary face off between the weakest.

Interested Parties so far are

  • Ian Davis - IanDavis
  • Noel Mitchell - GoAddict
  • John Gibson - ishidaogo
  • Mark Webb - MarkWebb
  • Brendan Nolan - bstick12
  • Olivier Deme - deepsky
  • Claas Roever - chew
  • Rich Brennan - Rick
  • Gearoid O'Shea - goshea
  • Rory Wales - rorywales
  • Adam Smyth - Gweedo
  • John Sheehy - horatio
  • Bob Dylan (barry) - barold - slow player
  • Conor - cain time is an issue
  • Tom McAnally - ynohoo - time is an issue

There is another tournament on Dragon right now DragonTourney2005 that might be of some help in setting rules
