This is a "No Vacation" tournament!

Hello my friends,

This is the 5th in a new series of tourneys that will feature personal names in well known and well used phrases.

 Blind Freddie - (Australian, informal) an imaginary person representing the highest degree of incompetence (esp in the phrase Blind Freddie could see that!)

 Collins English Dictionary - Complete & Unabridged 2012 Digital Edition

Publishers 1998, 2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2012

 The format is 100 players,4/group,3 days/move,2 concurrent games/opponent,2 to advance from each group,unless there are ties,and then ALL TIED players will advance to the next round,and NO VACATION time.

 Any players over 1503 AT THE START of the tourney will be removed and,whenever possible,invited to a new tourney appropriate to their rating.

 I'll decide when to start this tourney when I see what the response is like.

 Good luck to all participants and enjoy yourselves.
