We have done 4 cycles so far, where each cycle is running smoothly. I thank you all for the commitment and support. The number of withdraw / Forfeit game are relatively small, and you all are doing great in negotiating and scheduling the game with your opponent in promptly time. We have a small but solid community of Classical Time Control enthusiasts. I will try my best to conduct the regular tourneys continuously from time to time.
