Heading towards onsite registrations, we now have about 45 players. Please note that the pairings for the first round will be done at 645pm, and will include only all players who have paid by then. Players who pay after 645pm cannot be guaranteed a Swiss pairing. In addition, last-minute players are really encouraged to register by email as soon as feasible. This will save you $5 when you pay onsite, and will reduce your risks of non-Swiss pairings.
For your information, here again is the latest list of players already registered :
