Notes About The WCC 2024 Club Championship: 

The tournament has two sections: 
 Closed Section for those who qualify and 
 Open Section for anyone else like a regular season tournament.
If you qualify, please accept or decline your spot as soon as possible. 
 The deadline is Friday, 5pm, August 30. 
 
If you accept a spot in the Closed section, you're expected to play all 7 rounds 
 unless you announce a bye ahead of time. 
 All such byes are zero points.
If a round in the Closed section has an odd number of players due to byes, 
 the lowest rated in the lowest score group will get a 1 point and 
  possibly play in the Open section that week, but only if it helps even the field.
  
Withdrawal from the Closed section comes with the penalty of being disqualified 
 for the next club championship's Closed section.

Confirmed by G. Mirijanian
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The stats have been updated to include the first round of the Fortier Memorial, played on Wednesday, 
June 26.

Attendance was exceptional. There were 24 boards played on Wednesday, 13 boards were in the Premier 
section and 11 boards were in the U-1600 section. The Premier had 10 decisive boards and 3 draws, 
while the U-1600 had 10 decisive boards and a lone draw. Both section's 10 decisive boards had a 6-4 
outcome in favor of the black pieces. The difference was that the Premier had four of six black wins 
by the underdog-rated player, while the favorite-rated player won four of the six black wins 
in the U-1600.

For the 2023-2024 season there have been 650 games played in 35 weeks, averaging 18.6 boards per week. 
There have been 89 unique players that have participated in the last 35 weeks.

With the submission of the Steadman Memorial and several other area tournaments, the ratings profile 
has been shuffled. The eight rating qualifiers now range from 1735 to 2075. There are eight 1600-rated 
players within, roughly 100 points of competing for a Top-8 spot. Also ready to complicate the picture 
are a few high-rated players just under the 50% attendance criteria.

I've added the method of earning 1 of 16 seats for the Club Championship and the weeks left to play 
in the body of the stats sheet. I will no longer keep repeating how close we are to September 4. 
But for old time's sake, we have 9 more Wednesday nights to play chess in the regular season.

Chess 18: a way to improve your chess by figuring out uncomfortable positions, rather than playing only main lines systems. Four players played a quad yesterday for the latest "Chess 18 World Championship." It ended in a tie. For the many, many, many of you who didn't play, notice George and Mike learned that the middle game starts on move 1 in Chess 18. What's more chess-y than middle games? Mike: "I had a blast. That variant is fun!" Ludek Pachman Memorial results on swisssys.com
Some club scheduling notes:
A summer schedule of weekend events is TBD: it's vacation season, FSU reserving the rooms and there needs to be interest.
The Laine Memorial round 5 is Wednesday night.
Ray and Bob lead the way in the Premier section (although they aren't project to play) and George, Leo, Fred, Ansh and Steve will fight it out in the U1600.
On May 22, the Wayne L. Steadman Memorial begins.
It'll be a one section Swiss, 5 rounds, same Bat time, etc.
On Father's Day, George M. will direct an unrated rapid tournament at Saima Park in Fitchburg.
Details will follow in June.
As always, I withdrew players who haven't been attending but it's just to simplify bookkeeping. If you come to play, you'll play.
See you again Wednesday,
-Mike

Ludek Pachman Memorial Registration is OPEN 
(Note: This is a Chess 18 variation event)








The Ludek Pachman Memorial registration is now open to anyone (details below). 

It's an opportunity to play a variant developed by Dave Couture.
 

 (Presumably a slight modificaton of this variant, also called Chess18.)
 
 

The tournament will use the Chess 18 rules as follows:
 

1) All pawns are set up normally and pieces are set up symmetrically on the back row. 

2) The king and rooks are placed on their normal squares and castling rules are normal. 

3) White places one bishop on any open back row square. Black places his bishop opposite White's bishop. 

(note the different color bishops). Example: White puts a bishop on g1, Black puts a bishop on g8. 

4) Black places the second bishop on an opposite square color from his bishop. 

Example: after step 3, Black has a bishop on g8, a light square.  

Black places a bishop on an open dark square, either b8 or f8.  

White places his second bishop opposite White's second bishop. 

5) White places a knight or queen on the back row, Black does the opposite. 

6) Black places one of the two remaining pieces, White does the opposite. 

7) White places the last piece, Black does the opposite.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stats are updated through Round 2 of the Martin Laine Memorial, 
played Wednesday, April 24. 
There were 19 boards in round two, with 16 decisive games and 3 draws, or a draw percentage of 16%. 
We've played 26 weeks of the 2023-2024 season and we've had 467 boards with 64 draws, 
or a draw percentage of 14%. 
The average number of boards for the season is 18 per week.

On the statistics table there is a column "Top 16" that indicates the current sixteen qualifiers 
for the 8-board club championship that begins on September 4. 
The top 8 qualifiers are based on Ratings, 
and they are numbered 1 through 8. The last 8 qualifiers are based on Grand Prix Points 
and they are numbered 9 through 16. All qualifiers have a yellow highlight in the category 
that earned their current Top-16 standing. 
The primary sort of the table is the number of Games Played, 
and 50% attendance is the first criteria that must be met to qualify for the club championship. 
This was Week 26 in the 44-week 2023-24 season.

I've added two stacked tables to the right of the main table. The new tables show the players 
that have not qualified but are within striking distance of either the #8 qualifier 
which is a Rating of 1793, or the #16 qualifier which is Grand Prix Points of 12.5.

The club's attendance continues to grow and to-date we've had 76 players in the 2023-2024 season. 
Oddly we had a couple of veteran players show-up either late, or did not check-in with George or Mike.
 If George isn't shuffling a full deck of note cards, 
with one having your name on it - you are not in the round. 
Either arrive on time - and when life is getting in the way of that, as it eventually does - have 
Mike Commisso on your phone to call or text (603-533-9992). I text Mike to put me in the pairings 
if I'm anywhere close to a 6:45 pm arrival.

 in order to be paired for Round 2 of the Martin Laine Memorial

Dave Martin won clear first place and you missed it!  As Paul Giovino said, if you've ever gathered near a Wednesday night game in time trouble, this tournament offered 12 rounds of those possibilities. There were fast mates, repetitions and plenty of blunders.  A few unrated players played their first rated blitz games. SwissSys estimated 3 players added more than 200 rating points.  Yes, they farmed us.
