==== Continuity of MINI tournaments ====
 
Aim of Mini tournaments is to enable players on e-dama continuous participation on smaller tournaments and to be in contact with other players. Everybody can take part in these tournaments.
Our present experience shows that some players never start to play their games or they move few moves and stop responding. To avoid such situations and to provide other players with interesting competition with 5 players, from 1 June 2012 we are introducing the rule by which every participant on Mini tournament must make at least 2 moves in all his games during his first 20 days. If he do not make 2 moves in any of the games, he will be removed from this tournament.
Such player will be replaced with one of the players from the "pool of permanent reserve players on e-dama". Members of such poll will be players who want to help us in providing nice experience to all players. We invite all our serious players to help us building such a pool. We will try to replace missing player with the player from the pool with rating which is close to average rating of other players on the tournament.

Tournament description: This is not real tournament!
 
Lately, at many tournament there are people who are registering to play in the tournament but lately either disaperaing after several moves or never starting to play. Unfortunately, there is no mechanism to prevent this and, at the same time, keep tournaments open for new players who are really interested to play draughts on this site.
 
Intention of this "dummy tournament" is to make list of players who are willing to replace such non-players in real MINI tournaments that already started. So, if you are willing to play four extra games, please join here. We will make substitutions on "first in, first out" principle. Of course, if substitution is needed in the tournament where you are already playing, next available player will be used as substitution. Once when you entered the tournament as a substitution, you will be removed from the list (sorry for that) so you have to join again if you are still willing to play as substitution on some other MINI tournament. Of course, you can remove yourself from this list whenever you like, without any explanation.
