I misread about the time format. I thought you meant to play by correspondence.
In this case, since the rounds are pretty quick, shouldn't we use the swiss format? It gives the chance to everyone to play the same number of games. Since there seem to be a huge range of skill, that should be more fun to everyone.

And chess.com account is: emerald3x0.
+1 with this.
Also joining with hakulyte. Playing everyone would be more fun than getting eliminated by someone with a high rating real quick.
K, we have 15 players now, just haven't added q60 to maggies post. If it pleases everyone, I can chat to maggie and we can see about a slightly different format.
My only concern, is the time-frame of playing all those games. This is the 1st chess tourn, and should it go successfully, i'd be more inclined to make the 2nd one under a different format depending on how people go with playing multiple games in a short time period. By my calculations, this tournament with 16 participants will only take 3 weeks to end, at which point registrations can start for another.
You can simply do a swiss tournament with 4 rounds. It will take the same amount of time, but everyone will get to play all 4 rounds. It will also be a lot easier to handle draws than with elimination.
