Tie breaker: If the 64 bds KO ended in a draw, an 8 bds play-off (MP, non-best hand) will be played to determine the result (if still draw, the process repeats until the result is determined).

Reminder to all - if you 'follow' each other, challenges will be auto-accepted allowing you to play your own boards as soon as the challenge is issued. If you do this before completing the first challenge, all future challenges can be started immediately rather than having to wait for each later one to be accepted. This will speed things up immensely.

I'll be curious how other matches are going, but I don't want to make lots of work for those who are kind enough to run these things.

I am not a fan of this advice. It means both have to play 64 boards within 3 days. Some might not like to do that.

I don't think that's true. At least previously you could still only have one challenge to the same person going at one time.

This isn't true - each challenge is only 16 boards at a time and the next challenge can't start until the previous is complete. So you need to play 16 boards within 3 days.
If this is a problem, you're going to struggle to complete 64 boards in a week. (Conversely, if you don't follow each other, due to timezones there could be up to a 24 hour delay between matches even if both people are online regularly).

No it means player B has to play the boards A initiated within 3 days and A shouldnt do all 4 sets at once.

I just realize the result of the set is a draw regardless of the format we play in (MP, IMP, total points)!

Sorry I misunderstood - I thought the idea was to issue 4 challenges at once.
