After the HUGE success of the 2008 Tournament, Diplomaticcorp is now inviting
entrants to the highly anticipated 2009 follow-up.
The Tournament will kick-off in the first few days of January and will run
through two rounds of furious fast-deadline play. No prisoners will be taken
in the frenzied and in-your-face action!
To sweeten the deal, the Winter Blitz is the only online tournament offering
a donated prize fund, consisting of gift certificates for thoughthammer.com.
The prize fund includes:
$100 for Tournament Winner
$50 for 1st Round winner
$50 for 2nd Round winner
And NEW to this year's Blitz - two $25 gift certificates will be awarded to
winners of the Player's Choice Vote for Best Stab and Best Press &
Communication.
Time controls: 1 year per week:
Deadlines: 3 to 4 days per season, with Spring due every Monday and Fall due
every Thursday. This is a fast tournament! The only place where you can play
2 full rounds in 6 months time.
