Registration
Arrive for registration no
later than 13:45 please. If you for any reason see that you are bound to arrive
14:00 or later, CALL ME at +45 36 20 05 46 or send me an email to kctopen@gmail.com.
We aim to have the first
pairing ready around 14.15, but make no absolute promises.
The round starts at
15.00. Don’t be late, please. The first day the default time is only 15
minutes. If you are not in the club at 15.00 and have not arrived by 15.15, you
will be forfeited. On all other days, the leniency is 30 minutes.
Fair Play
The FIDE rules will be
obeyed at the tournament and this means a lot of obvious things. But to avoid
confusion, here are some obvious points.
Mobile phones, smart watches,
digital pens or any other digital devices must be deposited with the arbiter or
organiser before the start of the round. We have envelopes with your names on
that will be reused during the tournament. Bags with digital devices can be placed
in the office, it is not enough to have digital devices in a jacket, bag or similar.
Non-players (spectators) are
not allowed to talk to players playing. Spectators must hand over mobile phones
to the organisers on arrival. No computers are allowed to be turned on in the
club during game play, whether by a player, spectator, family member or dog...
The clarity of this rule have
the aim of protecting the integrity of the games, as well as protecting the
players from unfair.
You can retrieve your
digital device when you are leaving. If you need to use it, and return, we will
work it out. But you cannot have active digital devices on you while games are
ongoing.
No draws can be agreed
before move 30. If a three fold repetition happens before move 30 and the game
will be drawn from this repetition (including doing it more times as well), the
white player will fall to the back of the tie-break for prizes.
Jacob Aagaard will
deposit his personal digital devices along with those of the participants, but
after 15-20 minutes of game play, with a grace period to take photos.
Kallia Kleisarchaki shall
be allowed to take photos at all times.
The arbiters will be
allowed to have their devices on them, but the only use of mobile phones in the
playing area shall be that of taking photos.
The players shall not engage
in conversation during the games. Especially not with third parties, for
example parents.
The players shall stay in
the playing area, the bar area and the rest rooms, during play.
The analysis room and the
front room are prohibited areas during game play.
The only exception is for
those needing to go outside to smoke, who can pass through the front room,
without engaging in conversations.
The smoking area is across
the street from the club. It is not allowed to smoke outside the entrance of
the club and can lead to a severe penalty. If a player is smoking during the
game, they shall not engage in conversation with anyone outside the club area,
or in the front room.

Social event
A group of us will visit
to the restaurant Royal Cuisine on Monday evening at 19.00 (Rønnegade 1, 2100
København Ø). It is a Chinese/Mongolian Buffet with Sushi as well. The buffet
costs about 179 DKK. Please tell us latest on the Sunday if you want to join us!
After the prize giving on
Sunday the 22nd we will organise a blitz tournament with a prize fund of 3000
kr. The entry fee will be 100 kr. If any participant in the main tournament
feel tight, financially, they can get free entry. We will buy a lot of pizzas
for 15.00 and invite all players to stay and hang out at least to the prize
giving.
The bar
The bar
will be run without a profit. We will provide tea and sparkling water for free.
Beers, sodas and coffee will be sold at close to cost. We will have a piggy bank
for coins, and a list where you can write up your purchases as well and pay us
later with mobile pay or bank notes.
We will
not sell food or candy. You are allowed to bring your own food, but please do
not eat at the board.
Part of
the fridge can be used for whatever you bring. At the end of the day, we will
bin anything forgotten.
If
people would help with doing the dishes once during the tournament, it would be
great!
Proper behaviour
The tournament is a work
place the many and should be treated as such by all. Most people do not go to
their work place for social interaction and although social interaction is not
prohibited in any way, we
Travel in Copenhagen
Public transport is
great. Get the travel card at arrival in the airport. Put money on it and
travel for approximately 2-3€ everywhere.

more about it.

The club is at Rosenvængets
Alle 31, 2100 Copenhagen Ø. Close to TRIANGLEN Metro and between the train
stations Østerbro and Nordhavn. Lots of busses are close to the club too. The
Metro especially is great. The M3 line (red) has a new train every few minutes
and at all hours.
Google Maps will help you
plan your travels. It works really well here.
Best wishes,
Jacob Aagaard
Forcing a draw by three-time repetition before move 30 with White will ruin your tie-breaks!
It goes without saying that the tournament will be FIDE rated and the time control makes it eligible for title-norms. Current participants (ratings at the time of registration – P meaning paid):
