Another update on the registration list

[Gordon Gooding]

Just another bump to the registration list.Registration list is on post#3. Nice to see FM Michael Dougherty participate in our event. Remember registration closes on Nov 22.

[Gordon Gooding]

Hi all, just updating the registration list on post #3. We have one FM and there has been discussions with a second FM's (agent lets say) joining the fray. Do I hear a third FM or maybe an IM or dare I say it out aloud, a GM, if interested? Remember , entry fee is only $40 right now but the price goes up to $50 on Nov 19th and registration closes on Nov 22nd, no exceptions. Your move! Great tourney if you have never played tournament chess before. Players of all levels welcomed!

[Gordon Gooding]

Hi all,

I may bring some used books for sale to this tourney (Good to very good in condition). There might be a chess dvd or two as well (never opened). I figure the books would range in price from $10 to $20 unless otherwise stated by me. The unopened dvds, maybe $25. Cash or etransfer for purchases. A chance to beef up your chess library on the cheap side, eh?

[Gordon Gooding]

Hi all

Hope you took time to see/attend the remembrance day events. Just a reminder that there is 7 days to go before the entry fee goes up to $50. Starting next Tuesday until Friday. Save your self $10 in entry fee and sign up today. No registrations on Friday Nov 22. Tick Tock.

[Gordon Gooding]

Alrighty, it's official, we have two Fide Masters playing, Want a chance to play against a master level player in a one day rapid? Here is your chance!

[Gordon Gooding]
