Re: Quebec Closed - round 1 games

Unless I'm mistaken - four of the five games have DGT boards - thus one will be missing from the "live games" link. All rounds start at 5:30 pm. Still no complete round 2 results from yesterday.

I was at the site from about 6 to 7 pm Saturday - the only spectator there most of the time (unless there was an undocumented skittles/analysis room). A fair amount of unwanted noise - i.e. I think there was a kitchen next door, and it sounded like someone was moving furniture in the room directly overhead.

We were at least 15 spectators Friday, but somes arrived after 7:30, at the best moment of the games. All games were on DGT boards, but as there were technical problems, they weren't all correctly diffused.

For the noise, it was the same problem Friday. The tournament was originaly supposed to take place in a room under the Olympic Stadium, but just before the tournament, the room needed reparations and they found a new emplacement, which isn't soundproof.
