Yep, when is the closing date for entries, as I haven't registered with chess.com .
Even if its a Tahiti -type participation in the Confederations Cup.



I'm sure Dasboot from the quizroom will be up for it.

Welcome aboard AB. Forget the Premiership this is where it's at...... :wink: The closing date is provisionally set as the first of June but may be extended.

The whole shebang to start after that other tournament the World Cup ends. :)

Think you're in, Apples and think it will start post world cup, so a month or so to get some practice. :)

You are already in the list above Kowalski. :)

For those entrants you can begin practicing. I'll send a PM advising on how we will go about organizing the round robin on chess.com.

I have extended the deadline without telling anyone to the end of the World Cup. And try and get a few more recalcitrant players involved. 8)
