Thats pretty vague, is it over the board?  What are the time controls?  My otb tournament prep normally involves looking at my main openings and trying to improve them and doing alot of tactical puzzles

Yes, it is Over the board and the time control is 2.5 hrs for 40 moves and after 40 you get 1 hr and then after 60 moves u get 30 min

John, I didn't mean to seem impersonal.  I was in a hurry and violated one of my own personal rules: "don't post a link without a sentence telling the user what it leads to".

I hope you find the links to the older threads useful.
