"Sorted", Bored? Can't see you on the participants list yet.
Anything we can do to gather a few more? Ad hoc, Alex, TPC, VT? Guy, you lurker, can we not interest you in giving it a go? Such a shame that Kev is no longer playing on the site.

All the former participants you mention have been invited. Guy, how about it?
Bollocks, for some reason, it is saying that I failed to register. Could you send it again, Wouter?
I seem to be utterly incapable of doing this. When I go to the "Invite Players" menu, it lists which invitations are still pending, and you are clearly not on that list. If I then send an invite to you, chess.com cheerily informs me that an invite has been sent to 1 player, and you mysteriously fail to appear in the pending invitations list.
With the unexpected two-rounder of OTF Chess #11 and now this, I'm curious to learn what other things I will manage to bollocks up in organizing the tournaments. If OTF #15 suddenly gives us chess games on board of 10x10 fields, you know who's responsible...

Wouter, what's the plan, timing-wise?
Fixing this tournament via technical means seems out of reach of the chess.com wise minds. Cancelling and creating a new one might be the best way to go. I would also suggest that someone else takes the lead in setting it up, since at the moment I seem utterly unable to do anything productive.
OK, I'm in, Levin has joined, and invitations are out to:
Wouter, Etienne, Sam, Bored, Alex, ad hoc, TPC and VT.
Matt J de-registered from chess.com, didn't he (as did Kev). Can't find him on the site. A real pity, in both cases. Would be great if ad hoc, TPC and VT could join us, I don't think any of them signed up for the originally created OTF 13.
Oh, yes, of course he did. I was being very stupid there - I remembered that there were only 7 of us registered, but forgot that Bored was missing, despite reading all the exchanges above about how his invitation hit a glitch.
Anyone in touch with TPC? Everyone else who was signed up for the original OTF13 is now registered for the new edition, so it's just TPC left to join, unless ad hoc or VT is going to surprise us.
