WCC Late Fall Swiss - R1 Results, R2 Pairings

Hi all: Happy Thursday!

Thanks for a relatively uneventful Round 1 - we had a WinTD problem or we would have started at 7:05 - thanks for your patience.

We had one unreported result - Klass-Kakumanu. I paired R2 as a White win, if this isn't the case let me know and I will correct it.

As always, all pairings are tentative - will update things here as I get updates./p>

For those who didn't see it, the club is selling neato t-shirts with the club logo (white shirt with dark logo and club website URL) - great for repping the club in weekend or scholastic events, or for starting (or ending?) fights at a Murray Head concert... You can see the shirts next week at the club (I'll post an image if Kevin sends me one), they're in all kid and adult sizes for $10 - let us know and we'll place the order for you. They look great!

Thanks again - have a great week and we'll see you next Wed.

John D

WCC Fall Swiss R4 Tentative Pairings and R3 Crosstables

Hi all -

Please see the tentative pairings for Round 4 below, provided by Jim N. Prettier tables and crosstables are up (10/20)

  • As of now we have no forced byes in either section, so hope to see everyone nice and early for R4 :)
  • Congratulations to Shravan for winning this week and setting the pace at 237 points for the upset prize!
    • It looks like that may put the upset prize out of reach... Sam is currently paired +228 for R4, which doesn't look like enough
    • Pairings can change, and we'll review all the ratings :) to be sure, so stay tuned...

John (for Jim :) )

(9/17 - Open pairings updated below.  We now have one waiting in Reserve and Open, we can certainly get you both a rated game on Wed, so please show up!!  STILL NEED that misreported Reserve result...)

Hi all - busy week!  This is it, the last round, many folks still in contention - good luck all!!

Find R3 results and prospective R4 pairings below.   We currently have an odd number in Reserve, but we all know these pairings are very likely to change - show up and we'll find someone for you to play!!

NOTE - I NEED A RESULT FROM RESERVE FOR R3:
Sendhilkumar - Butler was marked 1-1 on the sheet.  Clearly can't be...
I paired as a draw - please let me know who actually won...

I'm bringing some snacks and maybe some cookies (have to talk to Trishie), so get there early...

See you Wed.

PS - Thanks to Reid for all things chess at UWM including bringing the Western back to life - check out the events up there, well run, on time, and if you can play quicker time controls (which is what everyone SAYS they want...), they're all for you!!!   But don't under any circumstances go to this lichess study on "Why I Hate Chess" unless you intend to see what a dope I am and laugh at me in the chat, lol...

------  prior post with details removed below -----

 - 9/11 - couple of bye requests, and unfortunately that leaves us with an odd player in open - do come out and we'll see what we can do to get a game - updated pairings below.  likely last update today - busy afternoon (it's 1:45 PM now) if you need to get ahold of me, text 312-952-6495

 - 9/9 - couple of withdraws and bye requests, and cleaned up bye allocations...  see updated pairings below.

What a fun round last night, many close games - congrats to the winners, and thanks to Evan and Gabriel for coming out and playing!  Always room for more players.

As you look through the standing and pairings below, remember the general rule - if you're paired and don't show up, I do remove you from the draw - you won't get paired for the rest of the event.  If you make some effort to contact us (smoke signals, skywriters, although I guess that's redundant...), we'll do what we can to make sure everyone gets a game.  If you've been (forcibly) withdrawn, and want back in, send me an email and we'll see what can be done.

Plenty of quick chess going on at UWM and in the area over the next few weeks...
 - UWM next Fri 9/13 is the first round of the SE WI College Chess League.  It's Free (as in beer, although as in speech is, I'm certain, implied), so no reason not  to play
 - UWM next Sat 9/14 is the <fill in adverb here> named "Milw Open - Chesswaukee II"
     - both of these are quicker, one day events, Fri is 3xG/30 and Sat is 4xG/60
 - in Brookfield on 9/28 is the 11th BC Open - 4xG/60
 - Hales Corners HC Challenge XXXV is 10/12 - 4xG60
 - for those closer to the border, the weekend of 10/12 is also the Midwest Class in Wheeling, IL

(also - Ashish, you left your scorebook, you can pick it up next week)

Thanks - see you Wed!  

- John

------  prior post with details removed below -----


and...we're off!   

40 entries (!), with more coming next week, maybe??  It's still OK to enter for rounds 2-4 - you'll get a 1/2 pt bye for R1, just let me know!

Find below the results of the first round (as a crosstable) and tentative pairings for R2.  

And, as happens, Wed PM and pairing changes - as of now there are no idle players in either section.  I'll keep this post updated This is the last update for today, text me (312-952-6495) if you need anything from now to game time,   I always recommend coming out on Wed, we can almost always get everyone a game.

If you need to pay the $5 entry fee, no issues, just come find me next week, thanks!  As always, send an email or reply to this post if there's an issue with anything here, you know you won't be here next week, any questions, or just to say "Hi, John" :)  

Thanks - John

--- pre-event post below, entries cleared... ---

There's a new event starting next week (Wed, 8/28).   It's a regular 4/SS G/100;d5 with Open and Reserve (U1000) sections.  Once school's back underway I'm thinking of doing something special for R4 (9/18), so stay tuned !!!

Wanted to say congrats to Eli and Aarav who both had 4.0 sweeps in the Hot Summer Swiss Open and Reserve sections, well done (thanks Jim for TDing). And kudos also to Kevin K for winning the reserve section last weekend at the WI closed with 4.5 / 5,0.  

WCC travels well - we always have good results in these weekend events.  Great Job All  !!

As always, PLEASE preregister if you're planning on playing - makes that first round go that much easier!  Feel free to reply to this post or send an email to me and we'll get you registered - include your name, uscf ID and section.

Do it now, while you're thinking about it!

- John D
