@alexholowczak @thibault Thanks. Awesome for adding the TRF so soon! I took a chance and it worked well. I have already pulled one into Swiss Manager and Published to Chess-Results with some minor changes to some players Usernames.
That's great to hear, @Malan77!
this is cool
Hi! We used swiss features with great sucessful, but there is some problems or bugs: in this game lichess.org/XoLADiRi
The white player say me "I've connected, I see like the timer is counting back to starter with 41.8 seconds, later in the 2nd move, black time left 2:51 and my time is only 41.8 seconds left!". Somebody have any explication?

This is a very nice gesture by lichess
That is cheating by lichess
To me swiss tournaments don't work properly if therea are less participants than rounds planned
Please join this club we will be playing swiss tournaments here also

TRF is a great feature, thank you very much. Unfortunately, tie breaks are missing in this format. Thus, manual editing is required to make it ready for publishing on club websites. A second export format (.csv) would be very helpful for us club webmasters, with the following modifications:
- Add two more columns for TB1 and TB2, best after the points column
- Make the round columns more compact, such as 9w1 instead of 9,w,1

I understand that it's not optimal to play many rounds with few players, but that's not the point here. You can just disallow multiple byes, and someone else will get the bye, like @TacticalBert stated, in both of my cases.
In the lichess reference to the Swiss format (lichess.org/swiss) it states this is "in accordance with the FIDE handbook" and if you click the link you get to the FIDE Dutch System, where it states:
"C.2 see C.04.1.d (A player who has already received a pairing-allocated bye, or has already scored a (forfeit) win due to an opponent not appearing in time, shall not receive the pairing-allocated bye)."
Hence, I would still claim it's a bug that the same player can receive several byes. If all active players already had a bye, no further pairing is possible, and the tournament should end.
