SB Rapid 1

SB Rapid 1 is a four-round tourney to fill the gap until T92. Notable differences to Teamleague, in a nutshell:

• It's not a Round Robin for teams; it's a Swiss for individuals.
• In every round, you don't play one game of 45+45; you play four games of 10+15.
• New pairings aren't posted once every seven days, but once every 14 days, giving us more time.
• There's no bot (TD) to assist; you must take care of your noescape variables etc.

This tournament brings back the Snail Bucket website after a nine year hiatus. Buckets were not created for this tourney, and several SB features like Time control preferences are not enabled.

Enjoy the tournament, good chess!
