Just realized round duration says 21 days; but it also says next round on 3rd of August. Not sure if that's a typo or a bug?

I joined the tournament based on this (original) post. But I can not find any other announcements, pages or anything about this tournament...
I am no doubt missing something but any links would be appreciated.

(Meanwhile having fun battling over Soest).

Look under the community tab up top between store and my page, there's a tournament link in the drop down for all tournaments.

I enlisted in the tournament, and I got an email telling me that the challenge vs. my first opponent was ready. However, when I loaded the games, I noticed that they were already ready to play three days before.

I don't know if you should only start when you get the "READY? GO!" email or if there was a mistake and I got the mail three days later than when it was supposed to arrive.

I suspect the email you got 3 days in was actually a reminder email and something went wrong with the original email. Not to stress about it too much though, 3 week rounds should leave you with still enough time.

Yes, both I and my opponent are playing and having fun (nice scenario for both parts, BTW).

I guess that the best thing to do is to check the MP status every day after you enlist so you can be sure that you start when the game is ready. No sweat.
