DE 15th Webserver Anniversary DE15 A

Dear Chessfriends,

Last week the start letters were sent - the games can start!

The top three players of each Preliminary Group will qualify for the Semi-final stage of DE15A. Potentially a small number of Best Placed 4nd place players after Tie-breaking (number of points, number of wins, points evaluation by the Sonneborn-Berger-System) will qualify for the Semi-final stage. No player may qualify for more than two Semi-final Groups.

The winner of each Preliminaries group will receive a voucher for 10 Euros.
