TEAM Captains -- Once all your Team Members have signed up for Slow Swiss #19 you can post your Team Name and Roster in this Forum.
ALL MEMBERS of the winning Team will also win a FREE DHLC T-shirt!! The TEAM can choose which of our many attactive logos you would like on your prize!
Everyone who plays is eligible to win as the top individual player regardless of whether you are on a team or not. But only teams are eligible to win as the top scoring team.
This will be a 3-6 round tournament (depending on turnout) and will be played in one round per week scheduled according to the rules of the Slow Chess League using ET (New York - USA).
*** IMPORTANT *** The Time Control will be 90/30 instead of our usual 45/45. This will allow plenty of deep thinking time. 90/30 is a popular time control for REALLY serious players who want the time to play their very best chess. Be sure to allow about 4 hours per game!
Dan Heisman recommends practicing Slow Chess using the same increment that is used in your local OTD events. Since FIDE uses a 30 second increment, this is great practice for those planning to play in FIDE rated events.
To sign up for this tournament you MUST be a veteran Slow Chess League Player, or have successfully completed a League Qualifier tournament.
Begins Monday, Nov 3rd
REMINDER -- YOU MUST BE QUALIFIED MEMBER OF THE DHLC IN ORDER TO PLAY. PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO SIGN UP IF YOU HAVEN'T COMPLETED A DHLC QUALIFIER.
