This past Wednesday, we had a change of pace with a Game 30 quad event. We split the members into two groups and played 3 matches in one night. It was certainly an interesting event – and a bit nerve-racking getting used to the 30 minute time limit since we usually play Game 90 events.
In the end, most of us felt that it would be better to focus on our usual format, but we might experiment with some match play events in 2010 – each person would be paired against an opponent of similar strength for two Game 45 matches.
Next week we will go back to the old format as we wrap up the year with the last Suffern Chess Club event for the decade. Come on out and join the fun on Wednesday – you’ll have plenty of time to see your relatives on the remainder of the long weekend!
