Here's a sample award certificate that I make for winners of my 100+ player tournaments: I will snail mail the certificate to the winner at no charge if the winner is in North America, or in a location where I can cost-effectively mail it. If mailing the certificate is not practical, I plan to email a PDF version instead.

Please use this forum to express your preferences for types of tournaments (open/rating-restricted, standard/thematic, # of players, # of simultaneous games). I'll try to accomodate preferences. Thanks!

I just wanted to remind everyone in the group that we currently have two 100-man knockout tournaments open for registration: Knockout of the Century, and Knockout of the Century U1600 The first is open to all players, the 2nd is restricted to those under 1600. Please register for one or the other (or both if you qualify). These are one-on-one knockouts in each round, with only a single game to play at a time in each round -- so not too time consuming if you're already registered in other tournaments. Also, since these are large, 100-man tournaments, I plan to prepare a certificate suitable for framing for each of the winners. I will mail it (no charge) to the winner if the winner resides in North America or in a country that I can easily/cost-effectively send a large envelope. If the logistics of mailing to a foreign winner don't work out, I'll be happy to send the certificate via email as a PDF for the winner to print locally. Good luck, and I hope to see you across the board! -- ECHOOooo....

Thanks for inviting me
