Membership Tournament Timezone Ideas

Avatar of ChessyMesssy

Hello Guys, I will be organizing a membership tournament on 16th july in my team. I am confused about the timezone to set the matches. If you have any ideas then please do share with me. I want a comfortable timezone, where the players from different countries can play with no time related issues. Also the tournament estimate time is 2 hours, because it will have 10 rounds of Swiss format, per game time will be 10 minute.

I just checked different countries time now and compared with the fixed time. I see that there is no problem with that time. In many places, the time is comfortable for the players.

just think that if it was an offline tournament, would the tournament organizer like ur idea and kept it for 24 hours that anyone can come any time and play.

That is the issue. People are from all over the world, so time zone is a big issue. it is imposssible to find a time that is suitable for everyone. I prefer more to do a daily tournament.

from geography there is no solution to it. so i will like a daily tournament

that is because the world population issue. if you want most of the people in the world to play then i suggest you set the time at 12pm utc+0
