Untitled Tuesday reminder and Saturday event
UPDATE - TOURNAMENT RESCHEDULED 1/2 AN HOUR LATER
Due to the Titled Tuesday delay, we will start half an hour later than originally planned, at 4:00 PM Pacific Time, 23:00 UTC.
**********
Our first Untitled Tuesday event is tomorrow! We will start at 3:30 PM Pacific time, 22:30 UTC, which should give time for Titled Tuesday to finish. Time zone converter: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Untitled+Tuesday&iso=20170606T2230&p1=%3A
Since the size of the group has increased, we will go to eight rounds. The time control will be three minutes with two seconds of increment.
The use of computer assistance is not permitted. Games will be monitored for fair play violations.
To join, go into the live chess server and select the Tournaments tab. The Untitled Tuesday event will appear in the list an hour before it is due to start. You can also use this link: https://www.chess.com/live#t=851505. Note: club tournaments are a V3-only feature. If you use the old version of the site, you will need to temporarily switch to V3.
Saturday Event
In future, we will have another event on the Saturday before each Untitled Tuesday, since some people won't be able to join a Tuesday event. This week, however, due to the short notice, we will go with next Saturday.
The survey got a wide range of responses. There doesn't seem to be any one time that works well for a significant percentage of those who won't be able to join the Tuesday event. So we will move the time around each month to try to accommodate as many people as possible; if the time this month doesn't work, maybe next month will be better.
Therefore, this month, we will go with 6:00 AM Pacific Time, 13:00 UTC. Time zone converter: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Untitled+Tuesday+-+Saturday+Event&iso=20170610T13&p1=%3A. We will send out one reminder news post on Friday.
Again, we will go with eight rounds, unless the size of the group and the turnout in tomorrow's event suggest that we're ready to go up to nine rounds.
BTW, I'm a bit curious as to which of you was the comedian who filled in the survey and put MGleason as your name.
