UPDATED TIME CONTROL - G/50;d5. Fun format for everyone. Shorter day than longer time controlled event. The new time control will add about an hour to the overall event, but will give players more time per game. ****************************************************************
What is a Quad? Quad tournaments use players' ratings to rank them into groups of 4 players who play a mini-round robin. Each four-player group will play three games (player #1 vs #4 & #2 vs #3). If the last grouping is not a perfect foursome, then that group will be a 3-round mini-swiss tournament of 5 to 7 players. The format benefit is that your foursome is closest to your current rating. ****************************************************************
