Haven't played in awhile, but I guess I'll join.
Time to brush up

No offense but that site looks kinda terrible.  Also I don't see how you're going to have a chess tournament without time controls (i wasn't able to start a game at that site but i didn't see any options for a chess clock).

Why don't you use FICS? www.freechess.org (http://www.freechess.org)

Mainly because people don't have to sign up, and you can organize a private game(which I don't know if you can on that site). Was that a sign up by the way or no?

Yeah, if the average person in the event is playing fewer than 2 games, I don't think we should have a site that needs you to register.
Somehow still around, somewhat
