Since such a solid lineup is coming together, there's an idea to make commemorative t-shirts/hoodies (although hoodies are probably more relevant now :D), something like the ones made for the CIS 2016 tournament (for example, the Open Championship of St. Petersburg, autumn 2017). If the idea generates interest, I can try to find out the prices. The more people who are interested, the cheaper it will be.

I would like a little more specific information about the event: do we arrive and play on the same day (or check in the day before?), what time is the departure, is there internet access, is there a list of templates, will there be any additional fees from participants as prizes for the winners, etc. (I didn't find all of this in the header).
I would like to attend this event, but I will only be able to confirm my availability around the 10th of next month. If I get those days off, I will come.

Not a bad lineup... I might even drop by... probably without staying overnight, but we'll see closer to the date.

I'm in, and I fully support this.

The rules depend on the number of players. There is a 99% chance it will be an Olympic-style tournament. On the 1st day, 1 round is played; on the 2nd day, 2 rounds are played, and if necessary, a 3rd round (if the bracket has 16 participants); on the 3rd day, the final is played, and possibly a match for 3rd place. There will be fees – the prizes will be formed from them (the amount again depends on the number of players; I think 1-2k). The templates will be announced later; there will be nothing too extravagant.

We usually settle in earlier. Usually around 1 PM - 2 PM.

To get reasonably acceptable prices, we need to order around 20 hoodies. Should we do it? ;) The hoodies are of excellent quality; those who ordered them for the CIS region in St. Petersburg can confirm it. I still wear mine and I'm happy with it :)

There's a 99 percent chance it will be a round-robin tournament.
There's a 99 percent chance the first round will take two days. I suggest you think about the regulations.

That's true... if check-in is at 13-14, people will start playing well around 18:00... and on the 2nd day, they'll get into it closer to lunchtime and continue playing around 18:00.

So, without a preliminary skirmish, not only the final is at risk, but also the semi-finals.

We'll figure it out somehow ;) Besides, this time the tournament halls and the areas for alcohol/poker parties will be located separately from each other.

Actually, you're being unnecessarily sarcastic. With more than 8 participants, 4 rounds will be needed. Considering that the day of arrival will almost certainly be spent drinking, playing 4 rounds on full-fledged standard maps in 2 days seems extremely difficult to me.

Kostya, I don't see a better system than loser-elimination; if you have a better idea, let me know. People will have a choice: either drink or play – and I'll make it tough. They can always forfeit and go have fun. Maybe I'll slightly reduce the timer.

He's hinting at a papal skirmish :)

Actually, 4 rounds on normal maps barely fit into 4 days, let alone 2. And only blitz formats can maintain a pace of more than 1 game per day.
