Thanks! Is it also possible to have a fast correspondence ladder?
There already is one 
Itās in the Fast Correspondence Group.
Unfortunately, the settings are no faster than the site ladder, but at least the people playing in there supposedly like to play fast.

If you could code that, that would be fantastic. 
Itās not something every group needs but thereās a very good case for this group.

Iām not so sure that one without access to the back end code could even contribute that code. I thought only the front end code is open source?

Two new Fast(ish) Correspondence Tournaments for you to enjoy.
and a full-size version with the same settings for those who mistakenly believe the smaller board holds no challenge.

āFast Correspondence ā August 2018 (A)ā isnāt gone yet, but we have 5 disqualified out of 10. All because of timeout.
Only one of the disqualified participants is member of āFast Correspondenceā group.
I wonder if a tournament for-members-only would have better results (less or no timeout).
Has this been tried before?

I think thereās a big difference between using +8hrs/move and +12hrs/move. My last tournament to finish only had one in ten resign and none disqualified for TO.

Thereās a big difference also between 19x19 and 9x9, I guess.

In the posts above, @TomDub gave the idea of increasing the maximum time to 7 days in order to make it work as a buffer and avoid excessive eliminations. Since this would not affect much the overall time per move of the game, I think this is a great idea. I would like to see it being tested.

Continuing the āOut-of-Tenā series. For November:
Nb: I typically run other āFast Corresp. 9x9ā during the month but I donāt post for each one. Check here: https://online-go.com/tournaments or here: https://online-go.com/group/2014
Thereās also this for full size board lovers:
Nb. Unlike last month, the full size version uses Japanese Rules after persuasive arguments by GaJ.

Hi there!
I see the āCreate tournamentā button in the group page. Is everybody allowed to do that?
I was thinking about a small tournament with rank restrictions.
