This sounds a really interesting format. What I don't get is the timing of the event.
w/e 15th March is Glenrothes (an easy commute from Edinburgh and in it's 25th year)
w/e 22st March SNCL Final round and Scottish team lightening
w/e 29th March (Easter weekend) - this
w/e 12th April - Edinburgh congress
That's 4 full on chess weekends in 5 weeks.Then there is the traditional 5-6 month void for anyone unable to commit their full summer holiday to playing the Scottish.
So for me I'd have loved to play but not on this weekend. Just about any other weekend in following months would have been better. Maybe if it goes well you'll hold another?
