Please explain

Can someone please tell me what "4SS G/30" means regarding a chess tournament, and if you know of a good site that has this type of thing listed out.  Thanks.

sorry, but you should ask PaulineVn  she 'll tell you.

she's like i know a titled player

SS is swiss system (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_system_tournament)

g/30 means each player gets 30 minutes on the clock for the game

I'm not exactly sure about the 4, but I think it means there are 4 games/rounds in the tournament.

4SS and Time Control.

"#-SS: Swiss System. The number that precedes "-SS" tells you how many rounds (games) each player will play.

#-RR: Round Robin. A round-robin tournament means each player in a section will play every other player in that section.

TC: Time Control. How much time each player has to avoid being forfeited. “G/30” (also known as action chess) means each player has 30 minutes for the game, so an entire game will last one hour or less; this is the most common time control for scholastic events. “40/2” means that a player must make 40 moves in the first two hours, and then the player receives more time to make additional moves."

USCF time control.

"1b. Time-control 

Before the game, the clock is set to a pre-determined time limit. The most popular time control in the United States gives each player two hours for the first 40 moves. If your opponent spends more than 2 hours for his first 40 moves, you win. However, you must keep score to claim a win by time in a non-sudden death time control.
After 40 moves, each player gets an extra hour. The extra-hour time control is a sudden death control. There are no chances to get any more time. The popular U.S. time control I just described is recorded: "40/2 SD/1"(40 moves in 2 hours, Sudden Death in one hour.) 

Many tournaments have only one sudden death time control. SD/30, SD/60 and SD/90 are popular time controls where the double-digit numbers are minutes. "

Thanks for your help.
