Much of this is copied from the previous tournament and is subject to revision. In particular, the time controls may change to allow more time at the beginning of the game with less time given out for each turn. There were also concerns about how long the previous tournament lasted. The length of the tournament will largely be a function of how many games each participant plays and the time controls given for each game, though the individual pace of each player will also factor in. But we have more control over the first two. The previous tournament lasted several months, and that didn't bother me, but some concern was expressed over it being too long. So I would like to get a general consensus on how long the tournament should ideally last and how many games we should play. So if you're interested in participating in this tournament, please state your opinions now. Once the tournament starts, which will be in early March, it will be too late to decide on these matters.
