DECEMBER CRUSH 2017
The December Crush Tournament housed the best behaved group of players I have ever directed over. We are seeing more and more players take notation and using clocks. Looks like the Nice List has been expanded/reinforced by another 79 names. Please take some time to congratulate all our tournament participants as well as the top performers listed as follows:
