Re: Canadian Junior Chess Championship - Aug 9-13, 2017

More payments coming in last night and today by paypal and e-transfer bringing the payments to 30% at the moment.

For the comfort of all players and for the round 1 to start in both sections, we encourage you to make the payment by e-transfer and paypal.

It will be great if it could increase to about 40% which means less work will be done during registration.

For those who has paid, pairings will be automatically done for them unless they indicated to have bye in round 1.

For Open section, we will close the registration by 6.30PM and if you do not turn up by then, pairings will be done and you will have a 1/2 point bye ( if you have not made the payment ). We want to start on time.

Same goes by U-1600 section where the registration on Aug 10 will close by 10.30AM and round 1 for them will commence by 11AM.

Thanks for your understanding as we want to be fair to everyone. Time is important and equally important to everyone

Everything set up last night including the 4 air conditioners. Nicely designed by IA Danny Goldenberg on the seating.

Finished at about 12AM and all ready to go except for some miscellaneous ( today should finish them off ).

Half of the players in the Open section paid up as of last night. Thanks so much which means only 17 players to pay today. This should be real quick before the tournament begins this evening. Please also try to arrive earlier today. For those who has paid up, you will be pair in round 1. thanks to those who has paid up in advance making this tournament going as smooth as possible.

Forfeit rules and tie breaks will be announce by IA Danny Goldenberg before tournament begins so be there before tournament begins.

Finally, time for some action by the players. 34 players in the Open section after some withdrawals at the last minute. Anyway, it is an even number which is perfect and nobody gets forced bye.

I have informed the IA on players taking bye during the tournament. Please also let the IA or Mikhail know also ( if possible ) so that no mix up will happen.

Cheers and cheers

Updates - Open section

65% paid up by e-transfer or paypal which left only 12 players not paid up.

Thank you very much for those paid up and we shall start on time today. Registration should be very fast today then. thanks again for making our work easier.

As for U-1600 section which commence tomorrow 11AM, hopefully most of you will also be making the payment by tonight so that there will not be any delay tomorrow. All players paid up will be paired.

Thanks again

Gary

P/S Thanks for the suggestions from the parents and players

Re: Canadian Junior Chess Championship - Aug 9-13, 2017

Round 1 of Canadian Junior begins. Total 33 players turned up. Pairing will be posted shortly.

For U-1600 section, there are 68 players so far registered. 30% paid up rate so far. We have 70% paid up in the Open section and round one begins on time.

we encourage the same for U-1600 section and hopefully tonight there will be a wave of payments tonight so that tomorrow registration for U-1600 will be very smooth and round one for U-1600 can start on time. About 20 players paid up at this pint in time and we have 68 players so this means 48 players not paid yet.

Thanks to all who has paid up earlier than on site.
