    Hi all, just a reminder of our tourney, spaces are limited. We have room for only 150 players or so. I would like to say operators are standing by but we dont so make your move by Nov 28 and pay only $40 if I receive it by then.

      I guess it is only fitting that the first registrant is from Burlington.

        Got players from Burlington, Milton and potential Niagara Region players as well. Maybe I'll get the same guy who flew in from Vancouver on the morning of one of our tourneys, landed at Pearson at 7am, and made it for the 10am start in Niagara and didn't seem affected by jet lag.That was impressive!

            Happy Halloween everybody. I might have some left over candy at my tournament. Early entry fee is only $40 if I receive it by Nov 28. That is my treat to you.

                Time is ticking down for the $40 entry fee if received by Nov 28. I was wondering if anyone was interested in buying some used chess books I have. I am thinking of bringing some to the tourney to sell.

                  Hi all, just roughly two weeks for the Burlington Fall Open Active chess tourney. Guess I should put up a registered list soon. Nov 28 is the last day for me to receive payment of $40 entry fee. After that it is going up to $60. New venue that can easily hold a lot of people. Hope to hear from you soon.

                  Gord!

                    Hi all the registered list is on the first post. I have already one FM signed up, any others? By the way if you dont see your name on the list and you have given me your cfc info and entry fee, please wait a day or two for me to update the list before you panic, thnx. If you still dont see your name after a couple of days then shoot me an email asap.

                      Keep those registrations coming in. Anyone from Niagara or Markham coming this way?

                        I have put the registration list on the first post. Also we have decided to have rating sections based on number of entries and to play up a section for an additional $10 if you are within 100 rating pts.

                          I see we have a small preregistered list, but it will grow.
                          We have received numerous requests to have sections, instead of just one.
                          So by popular demand, we will have 3 sections: Top Guns, Under 1600, and Under 1000.
                          If you are within 100 points of the rating floor, you may play up a section if within 100 points.
                          Better to sign up early to encourage your friends to play as well.

                            Hi all, just a reminder that Registration is not complete without receipt of $40 entry fee by etransfer by Nov 28th. I have been getting a few requests without payment. The registered list ( which included payment) is on the first post of this thread.

                            Tick tock.
