The first round has started. We decided to go for 9 rounds instead of 7 as this lets everybody play everybody, which gives all 10 players play each other once. Time control changed to 40 minutes + 15 seconds per move.
The pairing:
- The King - Gadget
- Chess22k - Arminius
- The Baron - Redqueen
- Nemeton - Dirty
- Embla - Spartacus
The reporting on the tournament will have a laps today, as your reporter has an other appointment this afternoon!
