Two questions about set position games:
1) How do you set the position? I have tried using FEN to input the position, but it does not work. For example, the FEN for the King's Gambit Accepted would be rnbqkbnr/pppp1ppp/8/8/4Pp2/8/PPPP2PP/RNBQKBNR. I cannot find any information about this so help would be appreciated.
2) Is it possible to set up a private tournament using a set position? If so, how? If not, then that would be an excellent addition.

1) Your fen is incomplete you should have some flags in it for castling en passant, move number etc.

Thanks whyBish! That worked. The complete FEN was rnbqkbnr/pppp1ppp/8/8/4Pp2/8/PPPP2PP/RNBQKBNR w KQkq - 0 3
Anyone know the answer to question 2?

I think that's not possible, at Queen Alice.
Private Tournaments always are played by Swiss System, for example. You can't set to Double Round Robin, which is simpler than set a position game.
But, I agree that would be nice.
