Hello Richard, Please include me for this event. There is some talk of theme openings. If the tournament is a 4 player, double-round event, I assume that the idea would be three different openings, each player trying the opening from the black and white side, right?

A brief outline of my proposed tournament follows. The tournament will be a Quad format, that is groups of four players in a double round robin tournament. You play two games with each of the other three players in your division or six games total. The tournament will begin October 1 with games scheduled to begin on the first of each month so you only have one additional game a month. Tournament divisions will be grouped by player rating as of September 15. Division ties will be settled either by play-off or tie break rules as decided by the players. Division winners will have exclusive bragging rights until the next tournament. If you would like to play in such a tournament, please let me know. If you have other ideas or suggestions, please post them to the list for discussion. Richard
