Clan Leaders' Tourney

I'd play.

I will play and represent FHL Clan

Excellent. I think we have Boarman on board... and Amsterdamn... do we have you too?

Good idea to have another Clan Leader Tournament..

As for style, first thing that comes to mind is a Duel so you have more people playing..
But the less gifted players, including myself, who might not survive round 1, might benefit from a style where you play more Clan Leaders in the first round already..

Perhaps possible to have several banded ones starting at the same time: since we're all Clan Leaders, we can all set up different bandwidths?

No matter how it's set up, I think it's a good way to get to know other clan leaders better..

I will be in..

I'd be in if it's a duel and at least 3/14, preferably 7 day timeout.

I'm in. I'd prefer a 7 day timeout as well.

OK, let’s recap. We have 17 on board. I think the total we could have is 24. The rundown is (with tournament entry rating):

Green Frog 1053
Cubitus 1193
Freddie 1214
Surtism 1446
Badmoon 1478
Coquette 1481
Amsterdamn 1512
Boarman 1518
Seti 1561
Irontigran 1587
Lukerik 1604
Oilman 1607
Hindstein 1705
Nordlys 1712
Smiffy 1740
Ichibanov 1877
GalaxyShield 1887

If Green Frog is to play we need someone about his rating. That’s the first order of business. Frog, do you know anyone?

Other than that we’ve got a nice mix with some real completion around the 14-1500 mark.

We have 3 votes for a duel, and I also add my vote to this, making 4.

Nordlys won’t play below 3/14, so 3/7 is out. We have two votes for 3/14 and two for 7 day. I’d vote for 21/28 because I’m a freak but I’ll add my vote to the 7 day, making 3 votes.

If anyone else wants to vote, there’s still time.

We also have interest for banded tourneys. We need more people to make these work, and we need firm offers of tourney donations. I’ll leave the details of these down to whoever creates them.

7 days is cool. 7/7?

I'm in for every time control, although it might be interesting to have a 7/7 to make everyone happy.

I prefer quartets, but I can see that most are going for the duel, fine by me

I would be interested in clan leader tournament... I was wondering if it could be run with a fast time control and in the Swiss format, say a five rd swiss. Just a thought for consideration.

A duel or threesome sounds good.

I'd prefer a 7/something, but a 3/14 would be do-able Im sure!
