Great! We now have 8 signed up to play. Still have a couple who have
not responded yet.

I can't sign up, since the tiny.url accesses an old server name at the fron
door, not the current one - (1) how do I access the tournament from 'Chess
One'? (2) Will all new players start at 1400? I want points!

All new players will begin with 1400 points.


Incorrect.

You can enter your FIDE or USCF rating (or a made up rating, for that
matter) and it will start you with that, stating that it's the rating
you claim to have. After 50 rated games it gives you your established
rating.

We have a few more posters who we really want to be players.This is a
rare chance for Neil, Taylor , Sam and Louis to test their metal.


Agreed. Should be fun.



Should I post the list of nicknames signed up?

Hmm, I wonder if Innes will think you and I are the same poster, and
claim his game with you is actually against me. You recall he insisted
I wrote some of your posts?
