    Totally make sense!

      Re: 2015 Mississauga Open

      Sometimes it is a cost factor. Why would organizers pay for an extra day unless they want to? Or maybe the Friday night is not available at the site location.

      Niagara Falls used to do 3 Rds Saturday with Rd 1 90 mins S/D then all rounds after 30/90 S/D 1 but we ran into long nights for round 3.
      So we did Saturday 90 mins S/D for Rd1-3 and 30/90 S/D 1 for Sunday's Rd4,5.

      We are now doing Rd 1 Friday night at 90 mins s/d and Sat and Sunday 2 Rounds each day 30/90 S/D in 1 . This became our best solution however it does cost us an extra Day's rent.

      If chess players enjoy playing then they will play all games, if they are coming for fun they will take byes. If they are coming for prizes they will use whatever system will give them the best score.

      As long as you are enjoying your chess time, use what fits your life style.

        Whatever scheduling option is chosen, players can always choose to take a bye to lessen the number of hours on Saturday or free up Friday night (or take two byes and achieve both).

          Please help the organizer to register earlier than later. It's about 10 days to go. If you think you will be playing, just email to waterdownchess@yahoo.ca.

          Last weekend at Hamilton IM Kaiqi Yang won the Open section with 1 point clear of the 2nd place ( 4 wins and a draw ) . He will be playing at Mississauga Open. Let's see who can deny him back to back victory ?

          This Sunday will be Brantford Active organized by Rob G and Lee Hendon.

          Cheers

                What are the Prizes for the seniors section are they First Only? I would play in Seniors if I have a fair chance at a prize but as the senior's list stands I have no fair chance to win a prize.
                I'd prefer U1600 as anyone can win which is a far better fair chance to win a prize.

                  We are inching up to 60 with 7 days to go. We are still looking waiting for some 20-40 players to fill them up. It will be great if we can have 16-20 players in each section so come and have fun before the school starts

                  If you have registered but your name is not on the above list, please e mail to me again as i may have missed the email.

                  Please take note that the total prize is guaranteed at least $ 2,000. If we have more players, then the prize money could be more but provided that MCC don't lose $$$.

                    We are at 72 players now with 6 days to go for pre-registration . Open section with 16 players ( lots of Canada rising juniors ). U-2000 with 16 players, U-1600 with 23 players and U-1200 with 17 players. We have players all the way from USA and Windsor coming to play.

                    Players from Senior section opted for U-2000 section leaving no players in the Senior section right now. We may have to scrap this section leaving only 4 sections to play.

                    We are still hoping to fill up another 10-30 players to make this tournament a success. Hope that after today, we will be up to 80 players. Thanks to the players who have pre-registered so far.

                    Up till now, we still don't see any titled players ( FM/NM ) from Toronto. We would love to have you play in this tournament since there is no Labour Day tournament the following week.

                    I have updated the list with the ratings for the 2 upper sections. Will follow up with the other 2 sections later.

                      Re: 2015 Mississauga Open

                      Gary has been after me to announce the prize distribution for the $2,000 prize fund.
                      Well, I don't know yet. Can we just say, based on entries yada yada yada!

                      My thinking is this:

                      Cash prizes for 4 sections: Open, Senior, U2000, U1600.
                      Trophies: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4 sections: Seniors, U2000, U1600, U1200.
                      So - no trophies for Open, no cash for U1200.

                      Cash distribution will be "weighted somewhat" towards the top sections in the exact proportions that 100% of all participants will exclaim, "this is totally fair and equitable!". Well, that's the plan anyways. :)

                        We have surpassed 70 players now with 6 days to go for pre-registration ( 71 ) . Open section with 16 players ( lots of Canada rising juniors ). U-2000 with 16 players, U-1600 with 22 players and U-1200 with 17 players. We have players all the way from USA and Windsor coming to play.

                        Players from Senior section opted for U-2000 section leaving no players in the Senior section right now. We may have to scrap this section leaving only 4 sections to play.

                        We are still hoping to fill up another 20-30 players to make this tournament a success. Hope that after this weekend, we will be up to 80 players. Thanks to the players who have pre-registered so far.

                        I will be updating list with the latest CFC ratings probably tomorrow morning. Stay tuned for updates tomorrow.

                        Why not offer a trophy for top Senior in each Rating Group as long there is at least two seniors in a rating group. If not then use the extra trophy for a second in the next biggest group.

                            Hi John,

                            I will leave it to Bob to decide.

                            Bob, hand over this to you. As mentioned earlier, we will probably have only 4 sections only.

                                We have surpassed our record of 110 players in our maiden tournament in 2013. Hope all the players who have registered turns out on Saturday for us to break the record. That will be fantastic.

                                Canada rising star FM Michael Song just reistered and he leads the Open section with IM Kaiqi Yang behind him. 23 players in Open section.

                                Thanks to all the players who have pre-registered so far in having achieved our target of 100 players. Thank you very much.


                                Latest ratings are reflected accordingly. The ones in BOLD are late registration. Last night was the dateline for early registration. Please refer to post # 4 above

                                Cheers to Chess in Canada
