Now is the time.

With luck all players will remain as consistent as they have been in the past and there will be tough, non-timeout decisions.

Good games to all.

In contrast to many tournaments, which include as many as possible in the pool of eligible players, this is exclusive in that most players are not eligible.

The idea is that after 100 completed games players should have fairly stable ratings.
