I hadn't noticed the time controls being only 10 minutes apiece. I hate blitz chess, so I'm going to unregister. Sorry.
<@Wikt> so you are one of those nega-fans <@Wikt> that hates the company that makes a game and everything they stand for <@Wikt> but still plays the game <@Wikt> (like roughly 30% of blizzard's player base, maybe much more...)

Registered! And with 50 minutes to spare I'm even worse at blitz chess than at standard chess, lol. Maybe this will be good practice for me!

Has anybody else played yet? Or is this tournament defunct?

Also, can we play games on some other site beside the one that wingpawn provided? I found it quite hard to navigate. It took flabrezu and I about 15 minutes just to set up a game.

I'm playing with pedrlz soon! He might be recovering from WCS though

Any tips on the site navigation?

There are 2 walkovers pending as Hjax and Spektor refused to answer their opponents' PMs.

If you have really hard time finding each other due to full game rooms:

1) Return to the screen you see after logging in.
2) Choose the option old version below the start - no Java link (Java required).
3) Manually select the empty game room from the bar in top-right corner (next to 'new game table' button).
4) Ask your opponent to do the same and give him the name of the room, so that he can join.

I found that no matter the time control I always end up in time trouble. Final position is a draw anyway, seems to be a fair result.
