Well, registration is now closed for this timely Bishop tournament. As a result, we have 85 people, which will make 20 teams of 4 people. What to do with the remaining 5 is yet to be decided; perhaps they will form a strategic reserve for the 4th bracket, or perhaps someone won't send in their list of captain choices (which confirms their registration) and will be disqualified.
Therefore, each registered participant must send me or Palach by September 30th inclusive via ICQ or private message a list of 20!!! nicknames (no more and no less) of those they consider worthy of being captains, and wait for our message confirming that the list has been received.
Those who do not send this list will be considered to have withdrawn their application to participate and will not participate in this tournament.
To make the task of choosing captains easier, in the previous tournament, after registration was complete, there was a table of all participants with their permanent rating.
This table will also help the captains in creating their own table for selecting team members.
Good ideas should not be discarded.
