We have ten signed up now, which is at least an even number, which will let everyone be paired off for each round of games. Two of the games still need to be programmed: Circular Chess and HyperModern Shatranj. I have been working on Circular Chess off and on. HyperModern Shatranj shouldn't be difficult to do, but I haven't gotten around to it, and no one else has done it. So I will put these two games off for the second round. Among the games that are programmed, Modern Carrera's Chess and Euchess use the same pieces. So I will put them in different rounds. If we had a lot of beginner's in this tournament, I would put Modern Carrera's Chess in the first round, but since we are mainly experienced CV players and inventors, I'll put Euchess first. So, in the first round, we will play Ajax Orthodox Chess, Euchess, and Eurasian Chess.
