In, however I'm interested in the details.(specifically the time of day)

Each round lasts a full week; you choose a time with your opponent for each round.

Will there be some protocol if people are away for a whole week? I'm away for 8 days in August, and would prefer not to lose by default that week.

If this is a swiss again, you could pretty easily let someone request half-point byes ahead of time.

I will be doing something just like that.

great!

I have one question and one suggestion.

question - you have some rules for removing players from the tournament (sounds ok) but what about the Solkoff Score of previous opponents?

suggestion - Once you get to 8 players for a top 8, I'd prefer it if #1 is allowed to select an opponent from the other 7 players. Then the highest unselected player (probably #2) chooses someone, and then once more. This system prevents players to ever want to lose/draw a round to positively affect their schedule in the playoffs.
(without this suggestion - suppose you know that #2 is much stronger then #1, then you'd rather end up #8 then #7, or something weird like that. You could also rather be #2 then #1)

8. If the player requests a Bye, the first time, that player receives a Bye by Request (BR). (This result is not available in the last round of the Swiss portion.)

If player requests Bye by Request for the second time it will be what? Loss? Will he be eliminated from tournament?

The player becomes a "virtual opponent" whose score assumes draws in all round after the dropout. In other words, if that player went W-L-L, then didn't show for Round 4, his record would (at the end of the tournament) "appear" to be W-L-L-L-D-D(-D).

I'm not sure what you mean here; you're suggesting that this would happen after the top 8 were determined?

Oops! That got missed in a revision. Going to remove it now.

The actual answer is that after you've requested too many draws your chances of being in the top 8 are slim to none.
