2021 New Zealand Digital Tournament
May 17, 2021 @ 8:00 am - June 21, 2021 @ 5:00 pm
NZ$10The NZGS invites you to play in the 2021 New Zealand Digital Tournament
To get the 2021 ‘Down under’ go year underway the New Zealand Go Society is running our first digital tournament. We are unashamedly copying much from the Australian Digital tournament as it is worthy of emulation. Let’s play and get some games before the in person tournaments start.
The tournament is on the Internet in six rounds, one per week. Results are due by midnight Sunday by email. The draw for the next round (opponent, colour, handicap) will be sent out by midday Monday. Contact your opponent, sort out a time, play the game online, email the result and the game record to the tournament director. The tournament is a Swiss draw in two divisions, open (2k to 7d) and handicap (2d to 20k, up to nine stones), using New Zealand (similar to Chinese) rules and Fisher time control of 30 minutes starting time and 20 seconds added per move (about 1 to 1 1/4 hours each)
To enter, email Colin Grierson, secretary@go.org.nz. Entries close on Friday 14 May 2021.
