Summer Server Series
CCLA's server sections use the ICCF web server and a 10/40 time limit. CCLA's Spring Server Series has an
Entry Deadline: July 15, 2008. It is a semi-class event similar in structure to the Leadership
tournament. Entries are lined up according to their ratings, with 5-7 players in each section and one game with each opponent.
There are no prizes. If you have never played using a web server, this is an excellent place to start, as you will be given instructions
and your questions will be answered. Entry fee $6.00 per section. |
