1) what is the schedule?
Each week 1 round, starting at 10th February. Number of rounds depends of # of participans, see rules.
2) who am I playing first?
You need to wait before sign-ups are over, then after some time Kirian will post pairings for the 1st round.

Although Kirian said he would cap the number of players at 128 and we're well past 64 sign-ups so we're pretty much confirmed for 7 rounds/weeks.

OK, thanks. When will I be notified?

Yes; we currently have 102 signups, so definitely 7 weeks.

BTW, any specific reason to cap signups on 128? I know that with more we can have more than one player win all matches if 7 rounds are played, but with a cutoff to top 16 and single elimination round I don't think this causes any problem.

I actually considered 100, and entirely because of calculation time.  In fact, I'm likely to try to hire* an assistant this time around just to double-check me, as I made several mistakes in scoring last season (none of which should have contributed to standings).  Unfortunately, Challonge can't handle things like requested byes and the like, doesn't handle dropouts well, and obviously can't figure out to pair sets with no sets.  If I had more time, I'd try to write something for myself...


...or perhaps not, but I don't actually have the time to write such an app yet anyway.  Perhaps someday, when I have time, I can write a challenger to Challonge, but that's... a while in the future.

*And by hire, I mean request a volunteer to work for tips.

For the record, regarding the addon:

(1) You are strongly encouraged to use the addon.

(2) The default is #vpoff; the point counter portion of the addon is like sex:  Turn it on only if both players specifically consent, and ideally work out consent beforehand so there's no pressure at game time.

If the other person doesn't want point counter, can I write down scores on a piece of paper while I play?  I would assume not, but I want to check.

No, you shouldn't be doing that either.

No, that would be the equivalent of writing down the scores manually if you think about it.

Or just people who aren't interested in sex with person P at time T.  But now we've diverged from the actual topic.

I'm in. I don't have any expansions on Goko, though. Is this a problem?

No it's not. The pairing will attempt to put people without sets paired with people who do have sets. There is only a small chance you will play a game without any sets except base set.

I've never done anything like this before so I have a n00b question:
- How will I get notified of the dates/times of any games I'm in?

Dates aren't set, you have a week to set up a match with your opponent, sending them a message through the forum's the easiest.
