Wouldn't it be possible to acknowledge a series of obvious facts and, accordingly, take a series of decisive actions?
1) Request each player to provide, in a private message, the time when they are available to play.
2) Conclude that some players simply do not have enough online time to participate in the tournament and task the teams with replacing them.
3) After all replacements have been made, assign a single deadline to everyone, based on the resulting situation.
4) If both players still cannot fit into the deadline, immediately declare a technical draw.
5) If one cannot, immediately declare a technical forfeit.
6) If both can, everything will be completed within a few days.
I raised the alarm because it is obvious to me that the problem is not due to being overwhelmed with real-life commitments. The problem is being overwhelmed mentally. If a person cannot state the time when they are available to play, the problem lies in their mind, not in their real life. Bishop, for example, is overwhelmed with real-life commitments. He easily and simply stated that he cannot play for two weeks. And he has already completed his matches. Because he wasn't dragging things out and isn't dragging things out. That's a real-life commitment.
But what we are seeing now is a traditional Russian problem – a confused mind. I stumbled on the very first point when I tried to resolve the situation as a coordinator.
