Hi everyone.  I hope this is not turning into a spamfest about my tournaments, but I am new to this and trying to learn the best way to publicize my upcoming tournaments.  Goose told me that he could not find links to one of them and it gave me the idea to post here instead of in the Notes section of the Group. (Thanks Goose) Here are the links to my tournaments... http://www.chess.com/tournament/french-defense-advance-variation and the other http://www.chess.com/tournament/learn-the-benko.  I hope you can find them if you are interested in joining and again, sorry if this is getting to verge on spam.  I will not be posting about them again.  If you have any questions, please send me a message.  Thanks to the CVTV family for your understanding.

cool

Seems to me that this is the right place to publicize as it's easy to see and rather what a forum is all about.  I'd join, but i have no money to get a paid membership and therefore can only be in one at a time I think.  interesting idea though!

Thanks Rob, I appreciate the comeback.  I only hope I can fill the tournaments.  If it appears that it is not going to fill, I will drop the number of players and hopefully that will work.  I want very badly for these 2 tournaments to begin.  I am very interested in both themes and I am anxious to watch how they are played in competition here.

Hi everyone.  I have lowered the number of players to 6, so there will not be as many games played in each of the tournaments.  Both tournaments have 5 people in them.  If you have any interest in the Benko or the French Advance, please join so that the tournament may begin.  Thank you again for your patience as I try to get the tournaments started.
