Sequel to the original open tournament of my custom chess position "Ral's Lunar Eclipse Position" which can be seen here: https://www.chess.com/tournament/rals-lunar-eclipse-position
Note that the position has been altered slightly (Kings are now on g1 and b8 instead of on h1 and a8) to make the position more balanced. This will be the new version of this position going forward.
Eligibility
In order to be eligible for this tournament, players must satisfy at least one of the following three criteria
1) Players must have a daily chess rating of 1700 or higher at the start of the tournament
2) Players must have reached at least the semi-finals (round 5) of the open tournament
3) Players must have reached at least the finals of any custom position tournament I have hosted
These entry restrictions will ensure a competitive event with plenty of rich and exciting games!
