About Random Luck:
I made a mistake in thinking that the deadline for the second round was yesterday and not today. Therefore random luck and walkovers were done yesterday when they should not have been.
Just because the draw says someone has gone through to the next round on random luck does not mean that match cannot still be played. Random luck is used as a last resort: when two people are on but at different times, when they have a connection problem, or when one person posts on the forum and the other is on MSN. We use it because we don't think a match will be played. If you do go ahead and play the match within a reasonable timeframe, that's always a better solution.
For example, in the match between Zuzana and B.Z.: B.Z. was on in the afternoon/evening European time and Zuzana was on in the evening/night American time. They were on for around the same amount of time each day.
Blacky had a good suggestion: instead of whining about how unfair Random Luck is on here, contact the mods and see what their justification for doing RL was. Then maybe you'll think differently about it.
