Hi Chess'ers, If you have received a friend request it will generally be as a result of your participation in a tournament I am taking part in and I would like you to consider joining tournaments that I organise in the future. This is made easier by adding me as a friend making invites manageable, and I hasten to add, is not for 'chatting' purposes! If you want chat, this is not the place.

I like to organise tournaments that are competitive and fair in the sense that the joining players 'Daily' ratings are considered equal or at least similar. i.e. you will not see a 1500 in my 1000 to 1200 tournament! How many tournaments have you joined to discover players way above the rating requirements!

NOT happening in my tournaments, the joining players ratings will be analysed and if above, or below, will be removed before start, making my tournaments fair in the rating sense, and therefore, hopefully, competitive.
