Very difficult to find chess tournaments, can't the system allow a filter?

Thanks

I apologize in advance, I don't completely understand, are these games rated or not when it states "Unrated games (no BKR will be affected by this tournament): no"

Unrated means "No"
(no BKR will be affected by this tournament): means "Unrated" "No"
no means "Yes:?
Please explain - Rated or Unrated? Lol

coan.net: At first blush it looks like a problem, and maybe it is, I don't know yet, but it is worth pointing out that every single tournament (as of now) is on that very page. There are no tourneys on page 2.

Perhaps the system is designed to make things hard to see "regular" tourneys if there are even more brain tourneys than right now, but there is no evidence right now of that.

For now we just have to scroll much farther to the bottom than usual to see "regular tournaments".

beach: I agree - maybe show the first 10/15, then have a "see more" or multiple pages.

Wish someone could do something with the brain tournaments now you cannot even see the regular tournaments because someone created 100's of them
