a) Please always set your challenge to "any book".

Rule 3
Players must register their first two results in each section they have entered within one month of the opening of the tournament or they may be replaced by a player from the reserve list.

Rule 4

Reporting the result of a match is the responsibility of the winning player.

Try to respond to communications as quickly as you can and once you have started a match play at a regular pace so it can be completed within a reasonable timespan.
