There will be 2 classes (1600+ and U1600, both 5 0) for the
blitz players and 2 classes for the bullet players (1800+ and
U1800, 1 0) as well as a 15 0 standard section.

The first tournaments will begin at exactly 12:00 noon server time

The winners in each of the 5 sections will receive prizes. Winners
