and yes, I am sure there are others I do not know about. 1 month before the tourney starts is the deadline. However, I am sure they will be flexible to gain as many entrants as possible. I do not know who would have the full list but I am glad to at least give you what I know.

[champion374]

it would be greatful someone with the full list please post it thanks.

[Michael Holmes]

Perhaps the secretary of the WCDF or Ron King can give more details. It is very possible that noone has a complete list.

I hope everything is under control.

I have "warning" emails about some financial problems and Suki is unreachable. This remind me something

I remember that promises included total fund for 3 checkers events (main, woman, youth) - $10,000 US, and 1st prize in main event - $2,000 US. Does this still in place ?

when will you guys be in barbados what date?

[Michael Holmes]

A lot of us will be there October 5th at 10:20 p.m. We could use a ride to our hotels (I say hotels as we are staying in different hotels).

My friend and I have a stopover of 21 hours in London. We are going to get to Bridgetown airport on October 6, around 3 p.m.

It would be nice if someone could pick us up at the airport and take us to our hotel (Divi Southwinds beach resort).

Best regards
Sergio Scarpetta

The current Women World Champion in 3-move, Nadiya Chyzhevska will try to win the double crown. Vitalija Dumesa is a strong player both in drauhts 64 and draughts 100 (dutch champion). Due to the low turnout of the youth event, Alex Holmes, the remaining nominee in that category, may be allowed to join the men`s QT.
