Assunto: Re: 2003 Gothic Chess Championship

Certainly the online format makes the competition open to more people, which is better for the game...but I also feel that the turn-based nature of this site allows games to drag out a bit, and playing a full group's worth of games simultaneously is not my ideal way of playing a tournament...if it could be set up so that the games are played live, at a time mutually agreed by the opponents, with time limits, and so that there's only one game at a time to concentrate on, I would so go for online.

Perhaps there could be a deadline for each game...the first game must be completed by a certain date at a certain time, and if not, neither player receives points. That could keep the pace of the competetition moving along.

By the way, what are the dates for the tournament, and where in Philadelphia is it usually held?
