How about a catchy title to perfectly describe this weird, crazy and chaotic tournament, known as Auto-open 950, where the "20" players are all disabled (!!) http://queenalice.com/tournament.php?id=3957&round=12

Now the main problem is that tournament just keep drag on and on. It should have ended normally on round 3, like all open tournament, but this one already reached round 12!! I'm by no mean a programmer, but is this situation can affect or cause some problems in the overall effectiveness on this site? Maybe it would be best to put a end on that tourney, who's going nowhere anyway.

Its too strange that all the members of that tournament (not only the ones remaining), all the initial 20 are inactive since 13 to 16 FEB 08, That would be the Hell of a coincidence, looks like someone rice his ELO crating this and maybe some other games.

All the players in second round have quit, so now all rounds end in draws with all players going forward. It's quite a pathological case. Nice find :-)
