Hi, all.
Would definitely prefer standard classical over 960 any day.

Hi Jim and all,The 960 Tournament was really a lot of fun, when we did it a
couple of years ago. That sounds like a great idea! I would play in a normal
Swiss Tournament, if you choose to go that way, as well.

all USBCAers,The USBCA very definitely Does still have a Realtime, i.e.
skype, division. I am the Assistant TD in charge of it. Unfortunately, the
last, what, three months or so have been so chaotic in my life, not to
mention so totally overrun with more tournaments than most mortals can keep
up with, that it just didn’t seem feasible to try to organize yet another
one. Having said that, allow me to use this note to call for player
interest. I am considering a chess960 tournament, with a time control of
30/60 cumulative, or perhaps a normal Swiss with a somewhat compressed time
schedule. I’m thinking possibly game/60. If you are interested in one of
those, or if you have yet another suggestion, please let me know during the
next week. I’m thinking that rounds will be two weeks in length. For reasons
which I won’t go into just yet, I’d like to have the tournament run from the
beginning of August through the end of September, keeping those last three
months clear for purposes to be named later. Let me hear from you,Jim T

Subject: [usbca_chess] Real Time Division? Does it still exist? Hello All,A
lot of people ask me, "Does the US BCA still have a Real Time (Skype)
Division?". I don't know the answer, so I am posting it to the list.Curtis
