Each weekday at 14:15 there will be a standard tournament with LONGER time controls. These tournaments are 4 round Swiss format and any ICC member is welcome to play.

To join simply type: "tell slomato" join a few minutes before the starting time. The Tournament Channel is channel 222 ("tell 222 Hi, I am in"). If you miss the start of round 1, "tell slomato latejoin", before round 2.

The time controls are different each day for the 4-round Swisses:

Monday 20 5 Tuesday 20 20 Wednesday 20 0 Thursday 17 5 Friday 30 0

Each month the ICC awards prizes to the 3 players who have the best cumulative score during the whole month, and to the 3 players who play the most games during the month. The same player cannot win more than one prize in one month.

The three prizes in EACH of the two categories are:

- 1st: 1.0 month ICC membership extension
- 2nd: 0.5 month ICC membership extension
- 3rd: 0.5 month ICC membership extension

In addition, one month extension to the best Under 1800 (with some eligibility restrictions, such as a best rating under 2000 in all rating category, an established rating, and no trial members).

You can see the current standings by typing: "tell tomato series best jan-dstand" and "tell tomato series most jan-dstand" Replace the month accordingly to see results of other months.

Absolutely no computers, account sharing, intentionally lowering one's rating (sandbagging), or any other violations of help agreement. Such infractions may carry sanctions beyond the scope of the tournament and the series, and affect your ICC standing.
