Cape Town Blitz
Starting in 2005, the Cape Town Go Club will be hosting annual blitz tournaments. These will be held towards the end of the year, around November.
Format:
Although the format may be adapted from year to year, for 2005 the following format was used.
absolute blitz (no byoyomi) – 12 minutes per side
30 minutes per round
standard handicaps will be applied
5 rounds will be played, with a 6th if required for tiebreaking
a swiss format will be used in order to do the pairing.
Rules
In 2005, the following rule variations were used
– 4 passes are required to end a game
– pushing the clock constitutes the end of the move (so moves can be taken back)
– it is not illegal or unethical to utilize any time advantage you may have
Please see the rules page for further details.
