Hello again, I hope to play in Round 1 of the Kingston Open tonight, and so could receive registrations/payments (BEFORE I start playing my game though lol)
If you've never attended the new Kingston Opens that Dan Barlow runs, they're a GREAT event for chess friends and families! (I have to travel after Round 1)
All the best, Aris.

Hello again, as expected, registrations are coming in faster, another IM and GM in the last 24 hours, WOOHOO!
But please note though that I am travelling this weekend, and so my email replying might be slower than usual.
No worries though, anyone who emails me by 11:59:59 pm SUNDAY will get the lower rates from month of March.
Best regards, Aris.

People do NOT need to send me money until I have confirmed their actual amount. If you've emailed me, that's enough, I'll get back to you within 24 hours. I've kept some discounted rooms on hold for these most recent registrations. Thanks.

The hotel has offered me a few more rooms at the special $120 (all-in) rate, and I'm giving them out in the order of emails received first-come first-served.
I expect the hotel will end their offer this week. Will post registrations as soon as I can catch up on my email, we reached 85 players yesterday, and counting!
