Does 200,000 go to the winner of this one event or to the winner of the whole series of events?

Is there a way to get this board style? I kinda like it, but I can't find it.
Would be nice if we can copy official tournament styles.
We do not have those at the moment, but I've shared the feedback with the team.
How many points will players get or loose after this? the winner will get 25points , how about others?
I think in freestyle we should name castle different. It doesn’t apple any more short/long castle or King/Queen. Instead it could be right/left castle depending on the king direction of the move. What do you think?

short and long makes more sense though
Sure
I like short/long
This pays better than regular chess for these players. I hope they can make it profitable for the sponsors, which is the only way they'll continue to put money into these events. The only way to make it profitable is to attract more viewers. I'd like to see some numbers comparing this event with other top level events.
A good castle name would be back and forth, maybe?
