What is the point of this? Erik has said more than once that he was planning on adding these in the future, it's just a matter of getting the technical details worked out... so why bother with this thread?
Positive feedback makes people happy.
Knowing that something challenging to do and which you are working hard on is vigorously approved of is positive feedback.

Come on, more votes! This is awesome!
And for the record, +1 for me
count me in too I would LOVE live chess tournaments considering I play live chess all the time.
Live tournaments are far more dynamic than online tourneys. Live chess is a better indicator of strength. I once made a topic hear about how crappy live chess was at this site; however, the group here has really made some great adjustments for the members.
Great job Chess.com, keep innovating!
YESYESYES!

I sometimes find myself just wandering around on the site (like right now) and if there were live chess tournaments it would keep me occupied and I can also improve my chess!

tourneys with standard (20+ mins) would be nice too
