2008 Championship

yea true

Clearly states groups of 9. I really doubt that will be changed. Somebody will have to have a 'bye' to rd 2......unless more enter..and there maybe lots of time yet...

Have sent feedback asking what the estimated start date will be

No byes I don't think. Last year the first several groups had ten players. Maybe they will stop at 909. =)

hey 1994 how much longer before it starts?

EDIT: you said 20:00 how am I supposed to know what time that is where I am

Now started. Group size was left at nine.

I'm in group #24.

Some interesting groups (according to top-rated players):
group 38: 2182 and 2115
group 68: 2287, 2003 and 1942
group 87: 2286 and 2015
group 99: 2309, 2154 and a former champion
group 100: 2142 and 2070
Looks like group 99 is the toughest...

101 groups!! 🙂 okay, we definitely need some kind of a drop-down menu for the group roster on mouseover, so you could check out easier where people are.

I'm not entering this time because of the fast time controls, but will of course be following how it all goes down. good luck everyone!

Group 54 for me.

I just added a quick link to find your own group.

A player search would obviously be useful too.

hi,

but can someone tell me how to easily find out which group i'm in ?
('cept for browsing 101 groups of course)

thanks
