Hello, as we all know it's hard to find your opponent in a suitable time for tour duels, additionally it's hard for the moderators to know which in the tournaments is active and whether if anyone is evading.
Using our forum's chatbox is Tedious to say the least. Not long ago i discovered a feature in skype to share a link anywhere that anyone can click on and instantly join the skype chatroom. Similar thing is available in Google hangouts, but people don't use it a lot.

It's real easy to do, after you make the chat room click in it's title to open up this opiton box

when you get a link post it in the Tour thread, Or pm it to the participants.
like so:

Copy and paste in your browser address to join the tour group wrote:

skype:?chat&blob=7juXK5_YiANf28Og9vla_Zj3TJDoaWEXf0yu6KYsa9L6pqcZ6cfhKXNQBAjT6yZbEPx-RKqEh_rFsGo

I for one would love to see this implemented because it makes things much more efficient.

Hi LoudFist, 
I like the idea, it'd help a lot.. though there are upsides and downsides to this.
If I allowed skype to interfere much in the academy, this might kill our chatbox activity. I think as long as it remains just for tours it'll be okay but I fear it to extend to furthermore! o_o

But anyways, I like the idea. We could use for the Survival Rounds to test it out. 
I'll get into it in few hours  
Thanks for the suggestion.
