Clarification: you can play ANY time during the week, you don't have to play it on Monday, that's just the deadline. Round 1 lasts from Monday 22nd to Monday 29th, round 2 from Monday 29th to Monday 5th, and so on.

* 40m + 20 sec time control;

Please clarify in the rules, that as you've mentioned earlier, this is a Fischer increment, to prevent people from considering it as byoyomi and hosting games with a byoyomi time control

I've created a separate Discord channel for this tournament
discord.gg/YwF4kYW7

Please feel free everyone to join and chat here about anything related to the tournament.

The primary contacting with opponent is still Lishogi mailing system, as described in the Rules, but you can use Discord as secondary communicating system as well

As correctly stated by Alex the +20 is indeed Fischer increment, unfortunately, I can't edit the comment anymore. I gave for granted that + means Fischer while |20 means byo yomi, but not everyone knows about it. Thank you for the clarification @AlexTrick

So, I decided to create a study covering this event, if somebody would like to help me out, I assume mainly with analysing games (preferably while calling on Discord) and with English (I am not very capable when it comes to languages and writing in general, sorry!), feel free to contact me via Discord or Lishogi's mailing system.

@Prnej Great idea, I was thinking about doing it! If you want to put me as a contributor, I'll add a few comments here and there giving my opinion on the positions. More than everything, it would be cool to have some comments from the players on certain key moves, so that we understand the thinking process of the players.
Thank you for your nice words in the introduction, it's nice to see and play with people so passionate about the game as I am :) and I hope the community will grow more and more in the future.
