Please contact your opponent ASAP to arrange matches

Mark (and Brent) you mentioned a rule update but you did not yet implement it, right? In the OT 2018 rules page

www.commandsandcolors.net/ancients/artic...and-conventions.html

I still read "After each round, positions on the Ladder will be adjusted in descending order by points, and further sorted by Ranking Strength (the sum of your opponent's VP) banners won, banners lost, and blocks lost.". This will change, right? May I suggest having the rules settled before the tournament turns hot?

I've managed to update the rules page now, one of those tasks I don't look forward too.

Relevant rules reads;

Players are ranked each round by the total number of points they have accrued. Players on the same point total are further ranked according to their Strength of Opposition score, which is the total score of all opponents they have played so far. Rankings will be published between each round.

Is it possible to participate as I see that one of players is without of an opponent.
Is it possible to participate? GMT+1 As the 30th.
