Rubicon · Pride · 2022
Democracy, freedom and peace are the basic values of free and equal societies. This is also celebrated during the pride season, certainly with a focus on LGBTIQ rights. Chess was always a game during which conflicts are solved by peaceful means based on freedom of spirit. Accordingly, there are rather simple rules:
► be kind to each other
► for the sake of tournament speed you should have an excellent response record
► relevant for registration is the rating on the moment of registration
► groups of three, the best proceeds
► this tournament will presumably last seven rounds
► have fun!
Due to the horrible incident on 12th August, this tournament is dedicated to Salman Rushdie.
Start: 13.08.22 @ 17.50 hrs

Tournament about to start within a few days!
Dear players,
the tournament is about to start within a few days—per day at the moment between 15 and 20 new registrations occur, so Saturday or Sunday seems probable.
To keep the number of timed-out games low I checked all players for recent online presence. To keep the number of withdrawals low: please withdraw your registration if you are uncertain to cope with four more games .
Already today I would like to wish all the best for you and best success in this hopefully exciting and quick tournament.
Rubicon.
