April 2026 Atomic Unique Openings Quads Rules and Results

Since we have so many participants and 13 quads, should we gauge the interest in adding a second round playoff among each group's winners?
This was a lot of fun, I wouldn't mind a few more games!

I like the suggestion, but I don't think it works for this style of tournament. Since the groups were already split by rating, the 2nd round would be quite unbalanced.

Thanks for playing and hopefully we can run something like this again in the future.

I have unfortunately been busy due to a family member being sick, so I could not have played any of the matches. I apologize for not being able to reply to any of my opponents, or to set up matches with them.
