It's becoming frustrating for me to follow this tournament. I don't seem to be receiving every assignment and the bracket spreadsheet doesn't appear to be up to date.
The reason you would not see your assignment is because the IBA Extreme Tournament is only open to Paid, Premium or Advisory Council IBA Members. Your IBA membership status is Free Member.
Should you wish to upgrade your subscription to IBA to be eligible for IBA Special Events, go to http://www.iba-backgammon.com and, under Site Navigation, click on Upgrade.
I checked the brackets and unfortunately you were assigned to the Final Match with 7 days to play your match ... the deadline was November 3rd.
Can you please tell me why it is proving a problem for you to open the brackets for your assignment? Maybe I can help you. Please provide as many "clues" for me that you can.

Actually, I did play the final match against armi on November 1st. It was only because armi happen to be logged in when I was and invited me to play it as an impromptu match. I had no idea who my opponent was to be. At that point, the brackets had not been updated for quite some time...since round 2 or 3 I believe. Also, I used to get the emails for the next round assignment. I haven't gotten that for several extreme tournaments now. This lack of information makes it extremely difficult to follow the tournament much less try to arrange a match.
