True, the LB players don't seem to care much or something. Well, as we all know, the deadline has passed us and therefor I'm here to declare some winners which were chosen randomly. These are the random winners from the not played duels:

UnknownFile vs. Anubis >>> UnknownFile goes on.
DeDe vs. Violet >>> DeDe goes on.
Ajazz vs. Pie >>> Pie goes on.

The other two duels which haven't been played yet (Vivando vs. Squirrel and DanYjel vs. SkulL) aren't randomized yet, since all of those players were kind of active yesterday but having the problem they weren't online at the same time. I'll give them the time until tonight, after then >>> random winners. Which means at least 7 of the 16 matches are forfeited this round
It's a shame and a waste for the tournament, but I guess there's just no other way. We tried everything to make those duellist play each other, but if it doesn't work, it just doesn't work. Anyway, I already expected round 2 to be the worst in forfeit terms, round 3 should go a little smoother.

For players in the Loser Bracket: from now on you don't have to wait till the end of the round with your games: as soon as your opponent for next round has been announced, you're allowed to play. This is because the Loser's Bracket has a much longer way to go, with more duels to play before a finalist is decided. I don't want the WB Winner to wait weeks before being able to play the final.
