If you want a tourney that is not scheduled, you can ask in Channel 49 any time. For example, if you wish to play in a 3 0 rated tournament type: tell 49 a 3 0 r tournament, please. If you don't want to make a channel tell, you can find out which TMs are online by typing inch 48. Then, send one of them a private tell like the one above to request your tournament.
If you are new to mamer and want more help, just type mam help player_guide or ask your question in Channel 49. There should be plenty of friendly people around to help you.
We'll see you in Channel 49.
