Feature Request for Live Tournaments

Is it possible to show the upcoming tournaments for say the next 3 hours within the tournament tab instead of showing only the tournaments for the next 1 hour?

This would make time planning for users a lot easier.

Thanks

The help entry indicates the schedule.

This is the stated two hour rotation.

Right now, all Live Tournaments are rated and include sections for all rating levels, as well as an Open section. Here is the current schedule (a two-hour cycle), with estimates of the total tournament duration for each format (make sure you've got time to finish!)

Hour 1:00 = 10|0 Rapid Tournament (5 rounds = ~1.5 hrs)
Hour 1:15 = 1|0 Lightning Tournament (9 rounds = ~20 mins)
Hour 1:30 = 5|0 Blitz Tournament (7 rounds = ~1 hr)
Hour 1:45 = 15|10 Standard Tournament (5 rounds ~4 hrs)
Hour 2:00 = 3|0 Super Blitz Tournament (7 rounds = ~45 mins)
Hour 2:15 = 1|0 Lightning Tournament (9 rounds = ~20 mins)
Hour 2:30 = 5|0 Blitz Tournament (7 rounds = ~1 hr)
Hour 2:45 = 2|1 Bullet Tournament (7 rounds = ~45 mins)

Well, I cetrainly understand the tournament sequence can be looked up in the relevant help section. And there is a 2 hour rotation.

However, I do believe to increase the number of upcoming tournaments shown in the tournament tab from the current 1 hour to 2 hours would be beneficial for tournament players.

I do agree that 3 hours is not necessary, but 1 hour is not enough.
