Technically, he didn't snut down the site: he didn't renew the subscription instead, letting the Ratings die off. Slynky posted a message in the Ratings thread to this effect, after Fyron had brought up the topic.

Oh, I wasn't aware Slynky shut the ratings site down. I hadn't visited it in a while.
And that pretty much sums of the decision to save the money on site renewal. It's taking months for people to notice. I guess between being burned out on SE4 and waiting on SE5, interest dropped. Kind of like KotH did.

I'd be interested in playing. As far as the ratings go, if there are any of those players who opt for this tourney, perhaps rankings could be used as a seed (with unrated being placed underneath).

Otherwise, how would you stack...purely random draw?

Random draw was my intent for the pairings.

Didn't we finish the ratings bash a couple years ago? There was one tourney that kind of withered out. I don't think it was the ratings bash though. It's been so long I can't remember.

I thought he might be asking about the "Race to SE5". That was the last big tourney. Tesco was running that one, but I think it's about wrapped up. In the final game or something if I'm not mistaken.

The last Survivor also ended a few months back. That one finished up with the last two players agreeing to a draw and co-survivorship if I recall correctly.

And there was one where I made it to the second round but I don't think the round ever took place. SJ was in that one, too. And Samuari Programmer, I think.
