March Standard Tournament. New sections, new prizes!

The March Standard Tournament begins Tuesday March 2 on the Internet
Chess Club.  The entry deadline is Sunday February 28.  Type
help STtourney for all the rules and how to enter.

Beginning in March, we have created 4 separate sections so that players
in different time zones can take part.  There will be an Open and
an Under-1500 section at both 8pm EST and at 11pm EST.  You can pick
the time most convenient for you.

We have arranged for an Omega Chess Set as the first place prize in
each of the Open sections.  This is a nice set that allows for "regular"
chess and also for "Omega Chess", a chess variant with a 10x10 board
and some new pieces added.  help OmegaChess on ICC describes the set.
