KID non-sub tournament

Yes, I move rather fast for CC anyway. 3/3 would be fine for me. So, am I in, Adam?

Please send me a Pm just to follow the procedure. But I'm not sure of the time limits for now. I was thinking on making a poll when all 8 people are in.

I could have sworn that I sent you one. I'll send another.

Sorry for the mistake. You're in.

So are the games rated or are you playing from set piece boards?

That will be decided once everybody is in. But my first thought was to do it set piece games.

I vote for rated. Players are locked into the first four moves. But, I'll play either way.

5 people now. Three more to go.

6 People now. I have to go home and tomorrow I'll let you know of the updates.

I think you should state the time settings before enrolling players - they might not all agree.

I think I would like to be in, but this depends of time controls...If minimum 7/3 I want in...

I would like to join the KID tourney. Tnx.

Erm, If its 3/3 or 3/7, and there is a place left availible -- I'm up for it.

Sorry guys for the delay in replying but I can only get access to internet while at work. But we got all 8 people now. And one more that also send me a PM but was the last to do it.
The participants are:

For all the others that said smething but aren't on this list I'm sorry.
we have two things to decide now: the time controls and if the games are to be rated or not. My inclinations are 7/3 time controls and rated games but I want the majority to decide on this. The options for the time controls are 3/3 to 7/3. No less no more than that.
You have to keep a free game slot during all the tournament or else you'll be penalised with a loss in case your game doesn't start on time. I'll do the pairings today, random pairing, and the games have to start sunday.
Post your feelings on the questions that should be debated: time settings and rated or unrated games.

Perhaps we should vote on the time controls first, and then decide whether to have rated games or not. Just a thought to make it more expedient.

I vote for 3/3

Ok. Nice suggestion. People tell your favorite time. If we don't reach a consensus I'll try to make a decision that annoys all the least.
