P.S. Far more promising would be an online championship organized by Armageddets and the Sponsor (say, Eurasia)—with truly strong teams: Russia, Belarus, Ukraine—for objective reasons, invite Poles, possibly Hungarians, make one UAE (United Athletes of Europe) team. Each team of 4 people—the most worthy, selected by national community voting, team captain's decision, rating on HW—various options. A well-thought-out format, brevity, criteria for selection to the second tournament (depending on the first tournament, qualifiers, etc., etc.). The ambition, spectacle, and usefulness of such a format would be many times higher than the proposed option of gathering whoever and sitting them down to play something they don't know how to play. It's no wonder that the dads aren't even posting in this thread (Hell seems to be an exception), because... well, that's just how it is...
