1. When the tournament rules mention 'White' and 'Black', presumably 'White' means the first player (White in Chess, Red in Xiangqi, Black in Shogi) and 'Black' means the second player (Black in Chess and Xiangqi, White in Shogi)?
2. The first round will be a true round robin (meaning everyone plays everyone) only if exactly seven players participate.
3. If my understanding of the Buchholz-Solkoff and Sonneborn-Berger tiebreaks (as explained here) is correct, then this page's description of Buchholz-Solkoff is incorrect, and that of Sonneborn-Berger is incomplete and potentially misleading.

Oh, and sign me up, please.

1. Yes, I meant the first player and the second player.
2. Indeed, each player will meet all the other participants in the first
phase only if there are exactly seven participants. I didn't think of a
better term than round-robin, but there should be one.
3. The worst mistake. I copied and pasted Fergus' page for GCT#2 and
applied it to a different situation. (GCT#1 and GCT#2 are true
round-robins.) I think I'll follow your link.

Awesome idea. 

I have to go and clear my schedule--I have always wanted to see something
like this.  Give me a chance to determine my availability.

Thanks for creating this tourney.

Hi ,
I'm new to this site,I would like to play in the chess shogi Xinang qui
tournament. How do I register for it?

Thanks a lot Fergus, I have added them. 
So the Chess-Xiangqi-Shogi Tournament will start in a few days.
Are there other contestants?

I'll give the Chess/Xianqi/Shogi Tournament #1 a go.
Please sign me up, thank you. Gary

Antoine, the first step in beginning this tournament will be to define a
round. You can do this from any preset. In the preset menu, there is a
button labled 'Define'. Click on this to define a round. You can
automatically set the time controls with the dropdown menu at the top of
the 'Time Controls' section. Selecting 'Email -- Tournament' will set
the time controls to the values this page says they will be. For the
'Tournament' field, you should use a unique label that you will
subsequently use to identify all games and rounds in this tournament. For
the 'Round' field, you should enter the round number, which is simply
'1' for the first round. Check the 'Rated' checkbox so that games in
the round will be rated.

After you've defined a round, you can assign individual games. For this,
go to the preset that will be used for a game, then click on the
'Assign' button, which is right below the 'Define' button. Fill in the
'Tournament' and 'Round' fields with the same values you used to define
a round. Put the first player's userid in the 'Player' field and the
second player's userid in the 'Opponent' field.

Registration will be definitely closed at midnight (Eastern time). Soon
afterwards, I'll add a section indicating who plays whom at what and in
which order.

Tomorrow evening, I'lI assign the games.

The Chess Preset should be HTML table for board.
The Xiangqi Preset should be CSS.
The Shogi Preset should be Uncheckered Board, Displays as small PNG file.

If a player is dissatisfied with one of these presets (anyway, you are
able to choose your set of pieces regardless of the preset), I'll ask his
opponent about preferences and try to choose another preset for their game.
