I'm not sure if you realize this, though Cups work differently from Tournaments:

Tournaments:

TUS Tournaments are events which have a signups time which lasts usually around 10-30 minutes, then once signups are closed pairings are immediately drawn, players go straight into the Knockout Stage and generally they are all present and active and finish all their games there and then within a matter of hours.

Cups:

Cups are events in which signups can last for anything up to a few weeks or more, once there are enough players the pairings are done and players are organized into Groups. If there are 4 groups, of 4 players, they must all play each other once, the top 2 players from each group are advanced to the Knockout Stage, from there the format is exactly the same as a Tournament although the difference is they organize games in advance just like how CWT/ONL PO works.

With Cups, the moderator will decide a deadline for players to finish their games, once that deadline has been reached the moderator will deal with any Groups or players who have unfinished games as they see fit.

Once the Cup begins, players are responsible for checking who their opponents are and then organizing their own games as efficiently as possible.

Cups usually take anywhere between 2 weeks and several months to finish.

I see, so it must be decided after all the users have signed up. I like that, because it negates the issue of different timezones, in a way that everyone can decide the right time for them and act accordingly. That's all I needed to know.
