              If you don't see your name in the pre-reg list - http://fallopen-2014.aurorachessclub...stered-players -, you probably did not send an email to the arbiter [ info@aurorachessclub.ca ]
              A kind reminder: Late fee: $10 on site. Walk-in registrations will be paired from Round 2 onward.

              New players:

                              74 players preregistered.

                              Several players need to update their CFC membership (see a table on the website - http://fallopen-2014.aurorachessclub...stered-players ).

                              If anybody requires a bye let us know in advance. (confirmed byes are listed too).

                              Come earlier to finish a registration and to start a round on time :)

                              Results will be posted on the website, and chess-results probably too. Will post direct links when they will be available.

                              Open section games' scoresheets will be collected again. Please write clearly :)
