CIS-13 in Minsk – it’s winter!!!

Friends, I apologize again if I misled anyone. The VT Championship itself is a continuation of Kyiv, Michurinsk, and Yekaterinburg. The tournament on SoDe has nothing to do with VT; it's not its competitor, and it will be held independently of where and when the VT championship takes place. Whether the VT tournament is stronger or more representative doesn't really matter to me. If my friends from Michurinsk and Tambov gather, along with some Moscow residents – SoDe players – and several players from World… that would make for quite a grand event. I announced the prize fund: 15 thousand rubles. Perhaps this seems like a small amount to many, but for many, even 15 thousand in any currency is a small amount; everything is relative. We’ll figure out the club issue. We’ll also sort out the apartment(s) situation, especially since part of the participants are local Muscovites, and some of the Michurinsk players know where they can stay. That’s all there is left to do—just agree on the dates. For now, the suggestion is after the New Year holidays, approximately from January 4th to 7th, as those are non-working days. I opened a topic /topic/9504/. All information about the SoDe tournament will be posted there so we don’t clutter up this thread.
